The Stilts

Bewdley sits on the River Severn in Wyre Forest, a Georgian town with independent shops, riverside walks and a string of pubs within easy reach. The Stilts occupies a distinctive spot here, where the railway line passes close enough that you can watch and hear the Severn Valley Railway's steam trains from the windows.

The property sleeps three across two bedrooms—a kingsize and a single—with a shower room on the lower ground floor. Upstairs, the ground floor contains the kitchen, living room and dining space, all arranged to take advantage of the trains passing by. The kitchen has an electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher and washing machine, so you can cook properly rather than relying on takeaways. Heating, electricity, wi-fi, bed linen and towels are included. There is parking for three cars on site, and one small pet stays free of charge. No smoking inside.

The location suits anyone drawn to railway heritage, or families and couples wanting a riverside base for walking and visiting local attractions. The Severn Valley Guest House & Coffee shop is nearby for breakfast or supplies.
