- Ellen (10/5): Really comfy beds had a great sleep both nights. Our host was really welcoming and was so friendly - Really enjoyed the breakfast. Loads to eat. Lovely time was had by both my daughter and myself. Nothing
- Paul (10/5): Excellent stay, brilliant host - Everything, have stayed here multiple times
- Paul (9/5): Lovely Lesley - Excellent location, superb value for money. Lovely, quiet room. Great breakfast and saving the best until last, Lesley is just fab!!! Only down side, though not major, was the water pressure for the shower but this wouldn't put us off staying again as the property has massive positives
- Sue.k (9/5): Lovely couple of days in Worcester - Perfect for a short break to Worcester and excellent value for money. We had a clean and comfortable room and vary tasty breakfasts. Lesley is an excellent host and available to help when needed. We look forward to a return visit. Water pressure was low but adequate and would not deter us from staying again.
- Sarah (9/5): Very enjoyable, loads to do in Worcester. Will almost definitely visit again. - Great location - 15 minute walk from rail station and town. Lovely breakfast - kept me going all day!! Room large and comfortable with plenty of tea/coffee/hot chocolate. Nothing in particular.
- Kevin (10/5): -
- Karen (8/5): Our stay suited our purpose of exploring the history of Worcester from a walkable location. - The host was very welcoming and gave useful information for restaurants and places to visit. She arranged free parking for us just along the road. The B&B is on a very busy road but we heard no noise as our room was at the back of the property.
- Gemma (10/5): Great location, comfortable and friendly - Great breakfast. Very friendly host. Fantastic location. Comfortable bed.
- Peter (8/5): Good location and value for money; we recommend The Shrubbery when visiting Worchester. - Friendly welcome; comfortable quiet room; excellent breakfast on both days of our stay. The location was ideal for walks along the river and the canal. The town centre was well within walking distance OR on a bus route when we felt a bit less energetic! Perhaps a little more pressure behind the water coming out of the taps in the bedroom sink!
- Neil (9/5): Comfortable quiet room, amazing breakfast, amazing host. - Breakfast was lovely, and plentiful! The location was reasonably close to the main parts of the city. Hostess was very friendly and helpful. Very comfy bed! Parking is a little limited, due to resident parking in the surrounding streets. The good thing is that the host provides one parking permit per booking, but it's something to bear in mind.
- Linda (10/5): Excellent - Absolutely lovely landladay carnt do enough for and very welcoming
- Donald (8/5): -
- Alex (7/5): - Classic old English B&B Cean & comfy . Good size room. Handy location for our events at hockey & cricket grounds.

- Rachel (10/5): Brilliant value for money and I will definitely be staying again - Location was ideal for me, only a 10 minute walk to Foregate Train Station, and another 5 minutes walk and you are into the center of town. Lesley was so friendly and accommodating and the cooked breakfast was perfect. My room was spacious, clean and modern, including a tv that could access Youtube which I enjoyed. Overall I really enjoyed my stay and will be back. The water pressure was a bit weak in the ensuite, however this was not really a problem in my opinion as I was still able to have a nice warm shower and wash my hair without issue.

- Chris (7/5): Good base for a visit to Worcester - Room was clean and tidy Location fairly convenient for town centre but a bit of a walk. Host was very helpful. Breakfast was well cooked. Price was very reasonable. Bathroom was a bit small and as it was a shower in a bath, access was a little difficult. No on site parking, but I knew that, and the host was able to provide a pass for parking near by. Room was a little dated but comfortable enough.
- SUSANA (9/5): - La dueña muy amable y atenta

- Moira (10/5): Home from Home - It has a lovely homely feel - I’d booked it as a place to stay whilst visiting my Mum in hospital. It was just what you needed after a stressful day. The host Lesley’s attention to detail was fab. She was a lovely friendly lady. Nothing was too much trouble. Tasty breakfast. She sorted out a parking permit for me. Free of charge. Despite being on the main road it was very quiet and I had two great nites of sleep . I had requested a room with a bath if possible and Lesley had reserved it for. All in All a great stay during a stressful time. It’s really close to attractions and shops and restaurants. You can easily walk everywhere. N/A
- Nick (9/5): Enjoyable. Worcester is a very nice City. - Lesley was very welcoming, and helpful. She made sure I was happy and comfortable. The property has been modernised and decorated to a very high standard. My room was great, as was the breakfast .

- Christine (9/5): Superb - Very comfortable 2 night stay. Good sized room and comfortable bed. Very nice breakfast with plenty of choice to choose the night before. Great location, walkable to the canal, river and city centre. Would recommend or equally would stay again. Shower a little under-powered but not a show- stopper. Not a guarantee of getting a parking permit as they are first come first served, but I secured one to my relief. Overall would definitely recommend though as these are minor points.
