Situated on the River Severn, Bewdley became a prosperous port for the river traders. It was a gateway for the industries in the Black Country to trade with towns in Golucestershire and Bristol.
Bewdley is now a conservation town retaining many of its old buildings and offers a variety of shops, restaurants and pubs.
There are many walks you can take along the River Severn enjoying its beautiful scenery and wondering what it would have been like in days gone by.
Within a few minutes walk from us you will find the famous Severn Valley Steam Railway, which offers a wonderful trip through beautiful countryside to Bridgnorth and Kidderminster.
The Middle Severn is found at the end of our road and the opportunity to catch many species of fish including hard fighting barbel is legendry. Any fishermen will find many a challenge and enjoy the natural surroundings and wildlife the river has to offer.
Rods can be stored on the premises.
The wonderful West Midlands Safari Park with the African Big 5 is 1 mile away and well worth a visit. Wyre Forest, canals and country walks are found in the surrounding areas. |
