Sympathetically converted from former outbuildings of "The Boynes" country
estate in an environmentally friendly, sustainable way The Orangery and
The Byre offer visitors relaxed and quiet accomodation, for up to 9
people, in one of the country's most beautiful areas with the added benefits of
an indoor heated pool and jacuzzi, games room and peaceful gardens.
A few miles to the west are the Malvern Hills, an area of outstanding natural
beauty. To the east is the Severn valley with its unique collection of
traditional riverside towns and villages the closest of which,
Upton-upon-Severn, is renowned for its unspoilt charm and for the festivals
that take place there throughout the year.
Staying at Little Boynes offers the opportunity to explore and enjoy the
beauty and variety of the local area. The Malvern Hills are within easy reach
and closer still are many walks and several nature reserves. Within the area
there are many National Trust and English Heritage properties and a wide variety
of gardens open to the public.
Numerous leisure activities are available in the local area, including: walking,
cycling, golf, shooting, tennis, squash, fishing, horse riding, boating and
off-road driving. The Arts are just as well catered for, with theatres,
galleries, craft workshops and cinemas all within easy reach.
Close by is the Three Counties Showground, home to the Royal Horticultural
Society's Spring Garden Show, which holds various shows weekly throughout the
year. Less than two miles away is the delightful historic town of
Upton-upon-Severn, with a thriving marina and many pubs and restaurants.
Chris and Sheila aim to make your stay here as enjoyable as possible with a
personal welcome and a refreshment tray to help create a relaxing start to your
holiday.

Sustainability
At Little Boynes we are striving to make both of our cottages as environmentally
sustainable as possible. Most rubbish is re-cycled; waste water and sewage is
disposed of via an on-site reed bed treatment system; re-cycled rain water is
used for lavatories and the garden; low energy/voltage lighting is used
throughout; low water/energy shower systems and a heat recovery system for the
swimming pool complex. All this combined with insulation exceeding the current
UK requirements means that your "carbon footprint" whilst enjoying a holiday at
Little Boynes is kept to an absolute minimum.
