Treherne House & the Malvern Retreat

What to say about Treherene House and its warm hearted proprietors, Alex & Mark Soden? It’s difficult to find the words to do full justice to our experience at this lovely guesthouse near the picturesque village of Great Malvern. Let me try. Magical, relaxing, restful, carefree, abundant, pleasurable, satisfying, perfect. I could go on. Alex & Mark have a wealth of experience in looking after their guests going back decades, although they retain their youthful charm, warmth and vitality. And that experience shows. Everything down to the last detail is arranged for their guests’ optimal comfort and satisfaction. The welcome is as if you were old friends, the rooms are warm and comfortably beautiful, the breakfast is the very best and the service is always with a smile so sincere as to be disarming. And were I able to fully describe the beauty and history of the local area - with the gorgeous Malvern Hills on your doorstep, interesting and welcoming local shops to while away the hours before coffee - I could invoke famous residents of the area including Edward Elgar, Charles Darwin and J R R Tolkien to echo their praises of this beautiful paradise. A short break at Treherene House is just what we needed. As well as thanking Alex & Mark again for their fine hospitality, I take this opportunity to strongly suggest you pay them a visit. My review is easily 5-star, or every star that’s going - and I couldn’t recommend this establishment more highly.

Im glad we came here instead of for example, the malvern spa hotel because it's very intimate with only 3 rooms available plus the landlords accommodation. On our 1st night we were the only guests. The hosts looked after us well and cooked a delicious freshly cooked breakfast in the morning. Spacious room and lovely grounds. Highly recommended for trips to the Malvern hills and showground

Top notch We have stayed in many locations worldwide. This truly ranked amongst the highest

Just returned home after a 3 night break. People make a place and Alex and Mark certainly made this a memorable stay. Our room, the Elgar, was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Breakfasts were to die for - those sausages!!! Everything cooked to perfection and plates not overloaded. Nothing was too much for mine hosts. So friendly and attentive but not overpowering, a difficult balance to strike. Made us feel special and as if we were staying with long lost friends. Wouldn't stay anywhere else in Malvern and would recommend to everyone.

The welcome; the decor and quality of Trherne. The Honesty of an honesty bar :) Breakfast was sublime & the room makeup was spot on. Room was warm with a great double aspect. Hosts (Alex & Mark) are charming and helpful. Late check out was a real treat. Will stay again.

Wonderful stay! We have stayed here a few times over the years and wouldn't think of going anywhere else. Alex and Mark are the nicest couple and can't do enough for you. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable with lots of nice little touches. The breakfast is delicious with locally sourced produce and they even have an electric car charger which meant we didn't have to stop on the journey home. A beautiful property....5 star!
