Upton-upon-Severn Restaurant Guide

Planters

This is an unlikely find in somewhere like Malvern Wells. Is this part of the relentless spread of ethnic cuisines westwards from the Midlands? Be that as it may here in an inoffensive white painted old house is this well-rated south-east Asian restaurant offering attractive dishes from Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Singapore.

Restaurant at Holdfast Cottage

A superbly located little paradise, redolent of antiquity, peace and good taste with outrageously beautiful views to the Malverns.
