A DAY EXPLORING THE HEREFORDSHIRE/WORCESTERSHIRE BORDER - Manors, Gardens and Charming Villages

This week I'm taking you back in time to the end of April when I spent a week in a dreamy cottage in the Worcestershire countryside. Whilst I was there I didn't waste a second, exploring as much of the area as possible and I've still got so much to share! This episode takes you around more of the incredible places I stumbled upon during my time there. First we take a visit to Hellens Manor, a phenomenal survival from days past. It dates to 1058 although most of what we see today dates to the 15th and 16th centuries. Then I head to Little Malvern Court to explore the gardens and from there I spend the early evening visiting some of the charming villages on the Black and White trail, stopping by Weobley, Pembridge and Eardisland.

The two birds kissing (as part of the topiary hedge) are sooooo endearing!!!

[@francinebarr1204]

Those cottage’s are Fantastic, Love To Our One Of Those. Charming Villages ❤

Beautiful and the accompanying music is perfect as always

[@ginnydavis3878]

Gorgeous! I'm American, recently disabled, and LOVING your videos as a way to travel again and see more of England and this amazing planet. (Your choice of music is perfect--please don't change it!)

[@lulubelle0bresil]

lovely - as always - having said that: SHOW US WHO IS MEOWING! 😺 LOL

[@nadenegordon7639]

Hello from Australia 🇦🇺 It seems you have the content I love to watch, probably because of my English ancestry. Your roses are beautiful, I love the garden and you seem such a sweetheart. I don't watch mainstream TV anymore so youtube is what I choose now and I know it helps others. Beautiful video, so peaceful, looking forward to seeing your future videos, take care. 💐🙂

[@nosystem1098]

Gorgeous. Thank you.

[@suz920]

I have a new habit! Sighing. It happens when I watch the beautiful filming of these gorgeous places and the background music just takes me away from the daily treadmill. Thank you. I enjoy every moment, sigh. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@dianeknott3655]

The house is awesome!!

[@karynhitchman2498]

Oh, I love Hellens! We visited last summer2023. I know what you mean about the paintings. Blew my mind seeing them just right there, no glass, no climate control…wow. I would love to go there again too. Herefordshire and all the West Midlands has so much history on offer. We stayed at a friends house in Eardisley, part of the black and white trail, for 6 weeks

[@d.l.l.6578]

You’re an excellent filmmaker and presenter. Thank you.

Your videos bring me such pure and absolute joy! Thank you, for your inspiring content and precious family atmosphere. All my family lives in England and on Jersy Island and my husband and i hope to live there too, someday...we love our New England home in the US....but just a pale reflection of the real thing. The English countryside is where my heart lives....i hope you never stop making your wonderful content, so i can live vicariously through your eyes...my favorite KZbin channel! ❤

[@spicencens7725]

It is so reassuring that quiet, charming villages still exist! AND that they've changed little.💖

[@exileinderby51]

Gorgeous scenery, wonderful houses and gardens. I hope you saw the topiary birds at, I think, Little Malvern. All in all, a lovely relaxing video

[@christinewalker5874]

Thanks for another lovely video Stacy, Ive been to the Black and White villages but the two gorgeous houses are on my list to visit thanks to your recommendation take care.

[@theslowtravelsfamily]

I’m glad you’ve enjoyed it Christine :) The Black & White trail is lovely isn’t it? It would have been nice to share a few more of the villages but evening set in and I ran out of light. If you’re back in this area both houses are WELL worth a visit! Hope you get to see them for yourself one day :) Happy Sunday!
