Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Stourport-on-Severn

Lush countryside, meandering waterways, sleepy villages and bustling market towns are all on the doorstep of a holiday cottage in Stourport-on-Severn.  This Georgian canal town lies on the banks of the Rivers Stour and Severn, in Worcestershire’s Wyre Forest district. A stroll away from holiday cottages in Stourport-on-Severn, the town centre is packed with family-run businesses, including Laurence Gough and Sons Butcher and Green Grocer, on the High Street – famous for its delicious homemade pies and dry-cured ham and bacon. The Windlass Café is a good option for lunch or coffee and cake, with access to the Old Tontine Stable Heritage Room, where the history of the Canal Basins is explored. And the Hollybush is a cosy pub with a wide selection of local ales and great food.

Hiring a rowing boat and whiling away an afternoon exploring the river is a popular pastime, and the riverbank is a picturesque spot for a picnic. Self-catering holidays in Stourport-on-Severn would be incomplete without a day out at Treasure Island – particularly for visitors with kids. Dodgems, boat rides, arcades and loads more can be enjoyed at this fairground by the water. There are a number of beautiful open spaces in and around the town, including Stourport War Memorial Park and Moorhall Marsh Local Nature Reserve – both just outside the town centre. Hartlebury Common Nature Reserve is a wild expanse of brooks, bogs, woods and heather-covered hills, and Burlish Top is home to 35 hectares of grassland and heath, crisscrossed by secluded footpaths.

 

For a relaxing look at Worcestershire's rolling hills and fields, climb aboard one of the Severn Railway’s steam trains in nearby Bewdley or Kidderminster, and watch the unspoiled scenery of the Marches float by as you cross the border into Shropshire. The medieval city of Worcester is well worth a visit, just 11 miles south of Stourport-on-Severn.
