Set in sight of the Malvern Hills this small family home and gardens has been beautifully and honestly preserved. See his study, learn about his family history and soak up the atmosphere in the pretty cottage gardens. Café and visitor centre on site. National Trust.

A beautiful Nation Trust property where our wonderful composer Elgar wrote much of his music. Being inspired by his daily walks across the Malvern Hills, his symphonies are said to be inspired by the pace he walked at and the views he saw
