Only a few minutes drive from Eastnor Castle, The Wellington Inn is a traditional country pub located on the western face of the Malvern Hills just below the British Camp, enjoying spectacular sunsets. Low ceiling, oak beams, log fires and warm décor that well complement the lively and friendly ambiance charm the locals and bring back frequent visitors.

Chef Paul Haywood and his team bring to the table a balance of snacks and traditional pub favourites along with more contemporary culinary works. Freshly prepared nibbles such as mussels steamed in white wine, cream and garlic and country pork served with toast and homemade chutney puff up the appetite. Watch out for the specials' board and expect the likes of smoked mackerel pâté accompanied by horseradish cream and granary toast. Finish with a homemade sticky toffee pudding topped with toffee sauce and vanilla ice cream.

The Wellington Inn is well ahead of the curve when it comes to real ales and as for the wine list, unusual, eclectic and extensive, are a few words that come to mind.
