Things to do around Worcestershire

Worcestershire, a county known for its picturesque landscapes and rich history, offers a variety of activities for an enjoyable day out. Whether you're a local or a visitor, here are some fantastic options to explore:

1. Walk the Malvern Hills:
- The Malvern Hills, straddling Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Gloucestershire, are an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The panoramic views stretch from neighboring villages to the Welsh mountains.

2. Explore Broadway and Broadway Tower:
- Visit the charming village of Broadway in the Cotswolds, which happens to be in Worcestershire. Stroll along the historic high street, enjoy ice cream stands, and explore independent shops. Don't miss Broadway Tower, the second-highest point in the Cotswolds, offering breathtaking views and a perfect picnic spot.

3. Visit Hanbury Hall and Gardens:
- Hanbury Hall, a National Trust property, boasts gardens, orchards, and 400 acres of parkland. Explore the 18th-century country house, enjoy the parkland on a sunny day, and fuel up at the on-site Stables Café.

4. Discover Worcester Cathedral:
- Worcester Cathedral, a place of prayer and worship for centuries, is a stunning example of Gothic architecture. Explore the royal tombs, medieval artifacts, and reliefs. The cathedral's history is intertwined with that of England.

5. Enjoy the West Midland Safari Park:

6. Visit the Elgar Birthplace Museum:
- Learn about the life and music of composer Edward Elgar at the Elgar Birthplace Museum in Lower Broadheath. Explore the museum, gardens, and the nearby countryside that inspired Elgar's compositions.

7. Explore Worcester City Centre:
- Wander through Worcester's historic streets, visit local shops, and explore the riverside. Don't miss the Commandery, a historic building with interactive exhibits about the English Civil War.

8. Discover Croome Court and Park:
- Croome Court, another National Trust property, offers a mix of art, history, and nature. Explore the house, gardens, and parkland designed by Capability Brown.

9. Take a Canal Boat Trip:
- Enjoy a leisurely canal boat trip along the Worcester and Birmingham Canal. Take in the scenic views and learn about the region's industrial heritage.

10. Visit Bewdley and the Severn Valley Railway:
