Home & location

We live in a beautiful ‘country’ cottage, yet right in the middle of the riverside town of Upton-upon-Severn! The Post Office and Spar are right around the corner (Co-op and Warners another couple of mins away) and the river a stone’s throw away, not to mention lovely gifty, antique-y shops and a choice of pubs and other eateries, some by the river. Our road is a cul-de-sac, so very quiet, and is opposite the landmark Pepperpot. In the spring and summer months, Upton comes to more life by being the ‘festival’ town - Blues, Jazz, Folk Festivals are particularly renowned. Our home is a period cottage, as you’ll see from the photos, and has 3 floors and 3 bedrooms. You are welcome to the whole house! I keep it clean and tidy as a necessity to ‘survive’ and thrive as a single Mum! The 2nd floor has 2 bedrooms, one with a triple bunk, which is great for when you sleep with your little ones. There is also a ‘Lego station’ (we welcome children of all ages!) and loads of Lego and other toys. I don’t have a cot any more though… The other bedroom has a double bed. The top floor we call the ‘penthouse’! It has its own bedroom and bathroom - here, there is another shower and a double bed and desk, with room for a camp bed (which we have), and a large walk in wardrobe. We have the usual TV with Netflix etc and Alexa (not sure about ‘her’… ). The kitchen has dining space for 8-10 as the table is extendable. Lovely large shower AND large bath in main bathroom. Close by are the beautiful Malvern Hills, with so many lovely walks (hope you’re better at navigating than me!!) and towns nearby are Worcester, Cheltenham and Gloucester. Many lovely country villages and pubs nearby too.
