The Marlbank Inn

View prices & book Last booked one hour ago 7 362 reviews

Traditional and welcoming pub site at the foot of the Malvern Hills
Three miles from the Three Counties Showground
Dogs welcome on site and in the pub; menu of Indian street food

It's just as well for one's waistline that the Malverns have some of the best hiking and ramble routes in the land – for there's a tasty menu of North Indian cuisine to get through at The Marlbank Inn. And it's just as well that said walks are simple to access too, as you might be a tad full after sampling said menu: the inn and its campsite are at the foot of the Malvern Hills within easy reach of scenic and slimming walks. The Marlbank Inn is in rural Worcestershire, close to geocaching and treasure trails, fishing and bike rides, and Worcestershire Golf Club for gentle teeing off. Events and shows are easily sorted from here too, as the Three Counties Showground is within three miles. The Marlbank is a traditional and welcoming country pub, with a sheltered camping field well placed for handsome views over the hills. Family attractions like Ice Quest Malvern and a leisure centre with pool are within 15 minutes' drive. Facilities include toilets and showers, drinking water, an undercover washing-up area and disabled facilities, along with chemical disposal and ice pack freezing. Dogs are welcome on site and in the pub.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: The Marlbank has a mixed grass and hard standing pitches that are a good size. The Marlbank has recently reopened in the last 4 weeks and the site could do with some live and care, checking all EHUs work ( pitch 7 doesn't.
The food served in the pub was very good indeed and the staff extremely helpful and polite.
The toilets are shared with the pub and we're clean, there are two showers but again only one worked.
Th Marlbank is in a remote location with beautiful views of the Malvern hills and a lovely dog walk directly opposite.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: DON'T BOOK - we arrived to find they'd gone out of business end of October 2024! The toilets were inside the pub, and we had no toilets ourselves so had to find another site. Shame, looked like it would be really nice place with a tidy up of the camping facilities. Hopefully new owners can be found.

Local attractions

After all those Malvern Hills hikes (for that really is a mighty fine menu in The Marlbank Inn), set off for indoor and outdoor days around the Malverns and its countryside. Days out for families include laser questing and ice skating at Ice Quest Malvern; taking the self-guided Spy Mission treasure trail around the hills, and pummelling clay into submission at Green Frog Pottery, 15 minutes' drive away. Kids – and grownups – of a certain sort might also like the Malvern Museum of Local History; if not, Ledbury's 19th-century Eastnor Castle has regular events including family days and sword fighting sessions (foam swords, you may be somewhat relieved to hear). Both museum and castle are 10 minutes' drive away. For a peaceful day out, drive 25 minutes to the meadow valleys, orchards and woodland of The Knapp and Papermill Nature Reserve, to look out for woodpeckers and nuthatches, dormice and bats (the reserve has 11 of the UK's 15 breeding species). Pick up a free trail leaflet or buy a family trail guide and information booklet at the visitor centre, to head out after another bite to eat in the picnic area.
