The ideal destination for a relaxing break, easily accessible from anywhere in the country or indeed the world.
The M5, M4, M42 and M50 motorways are right on the doorstep and there are mainline rail links from Paddington and Birmingham. Overseas connections are catered for with ferry links all around the coast and at airports situated at Birmingham, East Midlands, Coventry, Bristol, Cardiff and Manchester as well as the London terminals of Heathrow and Gatwick. If you are coming from overseas by car then Eurotunnel connects to our motorway network as soon as you reach our shores.
Leaving junctions 5, 6 and 7 of the M5 will mean you instantly arrive in Worcestershire’s Vale and Spa with easy links between the towns and villages helping with your exploration.
The key roads of the A44, A46, A449 make travelling from the outskirts particularly easy meaning it’s hard to travel past this part of the country without being tempted to stop by!
