Thatch Gate

The Malvern Hills rise dramatically from the Worcestershire countryside around Thatch Gate, a substantial country house set within six acres that includes its own lake. Vineyards nestle into the landscape nearby, and the whole area is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This is a place where the scenery commands attention—rolling hills, water, and working farmland create the kind of backdrop that feels genuinely remote despite good access to villages and attractions.

The house itself has six bedrooms and four bathrooms, sleeping 14 people in total. Period detailing and contemporary finishes run throughout. The grounds contain a tennis court and a hot tub; the lake offers another reason to step outside. Inside, there is space enough for a large group to spread across, with rooms for gathering as well as retreating. Wi-Fi, electricity, bed linen and towels are provided as standard. The property is yours alone for the duration of your stay.

This works well for multi-generational family gatherings or groups of friends seeking a shared base for exploring the hills and local wine producers. Smoking is not permitted indoors. Check-in is from 16:00 and checkout at 10:00.
