What an amazing location!! The steep drive up the hill was totally worth it. The view from our room was amazing. The other surprise was the restaurant. The tasting menu offered excellent value for the quality of food provided.

Had a wonderful lunch with friends Compliments to the chef as food was fantastic It was one of the ladies birthdays and they had even made a plate with happy birthday written on with fudge which tasted sublime, thank you
Enjoying the most amazing and absolutely outstanding Valentine’s taster menu (lunchtime). From the moment we entered the Hotel until we left, we couldn’t fault anything. An absolutely fabulous treat for a special occasion. The staff were attentive, pleasant and so very professional. The food..well, it was on another level. The attention to detail was so precise and flavours just devine. We enjoyed every course , and would highly recommend. We can’t wait to return. Thank you to everyone @The Cottage In The Wood.
I absolutely loved the food very creative and delicious (duck starter 10/10 just needed bread, and venison and beef was superb) Evening service was on point the whole team was very coordinated. Atmosphere was relaxed and there was no time crunch. Breakfast was so delicious as well (eggs royale) they were very accommodating of my gluten free needs and I was very pleased.
A new years break for 2 couples and 3 dogs. Really nice dog friendly rooms with easy access to hilly walks! I have reviewed restaurant separately but it’s great. Michelin quality food plus very good breakfasts. Service was friendly and efficient. Will be booking again. Thank you.
Really comfortable room the bed was large and linen was very good quality. Wonderful views over the valley. The hotel is positioned high on the hill. We had dinner in the restaurant which is a set menu which was absolutely delicious. The staff from reception through to our waitress Sophie and the bar girl were excellent and gave efficient and professional service. Would highly recommend this hotel
The GM, Silviu, has made this a superb destination both as a hotel and a place to eat. Head Chef, Rob, has created a delicious menu and deserves recognition at future Cateys awards. The location has superb views even on a grey, miserable day! The hotel has some unique features which add value.
Had a lovely stay here. Stayed in one of the best rooms which had a lovely roll top bath and stunning view. The room was spotlessly clean. The hotel is about a 5 minute drive from the town and you can access walks to the Malvern hills from the back of the hotel which I recommend doing - bring your walking boots!
All staff we came into contact with were very friendly and polite. Had a lovely breakfast in the morning which kept us full until the afternoon.
Good food, comfortable room, great views but more importantly in these strange times, superb service. Woke to stunning view over the valley and excellent breakfast.
What a wonderful relaxing experience. Our room was comfortable and fully equipped with everything one might need for overnight stays. The views are spectacular and our evening meal was one of the best we've ever had!!
The position of the CITW on the Eastern side of the Malvern Hills affords spectacular view over the Severn Valley towards the Cotswolds. We were lucky enough to pick a good weather day. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the set lunch menu had a good selection of dishes. The food quality and presentation was definitely a 'fine dining' experience and featured local produce including local wines and beers.
