Worcester is an historic city in the Midlands. It is the birthplace of
Sir Edward Elgar and hosts the Three Choirs Festival. It also holds a popular annual Victorian Christmas Fayre.
The
city is rich in history: Worcester Cathedral dates back to Norman times and The Commandery is the country's only Civil War Museum. The
High Street boasts a Queen Anne Guildhall, and just behind it the Countess of Huntingdon Hall offers an excellent entertainment venue
with Worcester Live. The Swan Theatre is also nearby staging plays and lively pantomimes.
Worcester Warriors Rugby
Club play from the nearby Sixways Stadium, and Worcestershire County Cricket Club are only a mile away at the New Road ground.
The River Severn also offers rowing and river cruises.
The city is currently benefiting from the expansion of the University
of Worcester and its new facilities at The Hive. Other sports and leisure facilities on offer include Perdiswell Leisure Centre
and Golf Course, and Sansome Walk Swimming Pool.
Locally Gheluvelt Park has recently enjoyed a major refurbishment, with new
play facilities and a Splashpad, as well as the peaceful parklands. This now extends along the riverside and neighbours
Worcester Racecourse at Pichcroft.
Excellent transport links also make Worcester an ideal base for exploring the surrounding
area, whether it be the ancient Malvern Hills, Shakespeare's Stratford-upon-Avon, the rolling Cotswold Hills, or nearby Cheltenham
with its annual Festival.
