Super little place. Very friendly. Seating inside or out. Great atmosphere and very nice food, tastefully prepared & presented.

Called in for coffee and cake. Ordered a slice of cake to share plus tea and coffee. We were advised by the server that they didn't offer sharing plates and thatcwe would have to manage with one plate, knife and serviette. Dreadful and unwelcoming service. The area around the cafe was shabby with rusty chairs and weedy. Shame as the cake was nice. You have totally missed the point with your aggressive rant. I never want something for nothing but to offer to cut the cake in half would have cost nothing. Some customers like myself suffer with diabetes and need to limit their sugar intake. It's not about something for nothing. We would have gladly paid a little extra if requested. It was the nasty attitude of the staff member who served us that caused me to write. The different lady who served us at the table was lovely and asked us if we wanted a second plate which we refused. We do understand the control of costs is critical to business but without customers you don't have a business. Also you have conveniently decided not to comment on the rusty chairs. Good luck with your business

Love the home cooked food and tranquility at Barton Court... Beautiful views! Great food Linda is a fabulous hostess and lovely team! Happy returning brunchers!

Have just stayed in beautiful clock tower and rest of family in coach house. Everywhere so amazingly decorated with antique bowls etc . On site cafe superb and as I was recovering from knee replacement when son and family wanted to go further afield with two lively Grandchildren was happy to stay on site. Owners Jamie and Linda couldn’t have been more helpful

A delightful rural spot. We went for a John Piper exhibition and stopped for coffee and cake.

Beautiful venue, well decorated and interesting menu. Will come back again for lunch.

Unfortunately was lied to about holding deposit. My party adhered to all of the rules and deposit has not yet been repaid. Good breakfast in all fairness but just know that your deposit will not be repaid. Also a serious issues with flies- bring your own swat and bug spray- guests are expected to clean flies from their own beds.

Nice little cafe. Very dog friendly and nice people serving us.

Rude staff ,waitress tried to take cup away before finished coffee , expensive,old guy in there bit nosey,seemed controlling,not allowing us to discover the area ,then replied to my review asking if I was with unsuitable customers ? Obviously they don't want to act on negatives and turn them around ??

We had the most incredible 50th Birthday Celebration at Barton Court. The house is simple wonderful, with beautifully decorated rooms, lovely bed linen and great sized ensuites. The views of the Malvern Hills from my ensuite were quite picturesque – wish I could wake up and see that every day. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of fridge space which we need for all our wine! There were a number of rooms for entertaining including a very large lounge, dining room and study. We were a party of 38 and the house was just perfect in size and felt very spacious. We hired a local catering company recommended by Linda and we could not have been happier with the service and quality of food. Just fantastic. The grounds were an added bonus, and we took full advantage of them with an outside disco – just fabulous. We truly felt in the countryside and had total privacy. Linda and James were exceptionally welcoming and lovely to chat to. The coffee shop behind the house is an added bonus for fresh coffee and an amazing selection of homemade cakes. It is easy to access but at the same time could easily have not been there in terms of it interrupting our experience and enjoyment of the house. The segregation is subtle but effective. Overall we had the best weekend, we highly recommend it to anyone planning a large family / fiends gathering and will definitely be returning

Went to Barton Court for Hereford Art week. Staff were very rude and unhelpful when we asked where to park our campervan. Were told to park round the back but for only 30 minutes. We did not stay as it was pointless. We will not be back

Stopped at the Loose Box for coffee and cake. After being shouted at for trying to serve ourselves with cake (the plates and cake slices were there), we placed our order. Coffee came quickly, but no cake. After a long wait, we asked about the cake, only to be told (with no apology) that our order had been forgotten. When the carrot cake eventually arrived, it was dry and overcooked. There were other people at the next table whose lunch order had been forgotten, and who were treated in an equally rude manner

Pleasant surprise, a lovely lunch sitting outside. Along with a band serenading everyone.

What a shame about this place, visited today for lunch, lovely food and drinks. There was a group of 4 people having lunch, they had an elderly dog with them that was constantly barking, the owners seemed to ignore this but it clearly put other guests off who moved outside to eat, really spoilt our lunch and would have stayed longer, shame that the staff didn't take initiative and ask the dog owners to maybe take the dog outside. Such a put off. Leadership absent unfortunately! Could have been dealt with in a polite business like fashion. Put us off returning. Big shame.

Great beetroot and berry brownies. Interesting plants for sale. Helpful young staff. Well worth a visit.

OK for light snacks although a bit on the expensive side, Freindly staff. Clean toilets OK for walkers and cyclists, plenty of outdoor seating. Ideal for outdoor snacks on a sunny day

First time to Barton Court, the area is very beautiful, and the cafe was a welcome sight. The cafe is in an old horse stall, still with the names of the horses above the door! It is quaint, and rustic, entirely appropriate. We just had some soup but it tased home made, and delicious. Friendly service and very reasonable costs. It was quite busy, and we visited mid morning, mid week.

Linda and her team organised a delightful afternoon tea party for my Mum's 90th birthday at very short notice. They accommodated us in a beautiful private space called the Engine room which was perfect as had easy access for my Mum in a wheelchair and disabled toilet adjacent to it. The caterer provided a beautifully displayed and delicious selection of home made sandwiches, cakes and pastries, even homemade jam for the scones. We were served tea and coffee by two lovely members of staff who had stayed on after their normal shift in the cafe to host us and nothing seemed too much trouble. I would definitely recommend them if you are looking for something similar and will be back to try their lunch menu in the cafe.

Nice food, setting and service..Many thanks 👍👌🙂

Were over the moon to win a short stay at the amazing Clocktower! It was a fantastic break and just what we needed. The cottage is a perfect romantic break for two, and super dog friendly. We felt at home straight away. The cottage is quirky, with lots of lovely touches from the owners, very warm and well equipped. The bed is huge and super comfy, and the little upstairs loo saves trogging downstairs to the main bathroom in the dark! Barton Court and it's surroundings are simply magical, and will only improve as the owners keep up their good work and fulfill their plans. Linda and James, the owners, and their staff, could not have been kinder and we can't wait to return! Sharon and Vince from Wales xxx

Excellent tucked away place to drop in for a lovely snack, coffee or meal and drink. We had really good fish pies and great coffees as usual.

Great venue, brilliant friendly staff and great food, also have various events like a classic car drive in which is really worth looking out for (Last Thursday of the Month when we went). Some really great and rare old cars and all owners very friendly when you asked questions. A regular stop for us if cycling or walking.

We hired the barn at Barton Court last night for our meditation, breath and soundbath event. This place is truly fantastic, it was warm, beautifully lit and James looked after us very well and guided all the participants too us in the gorgeous space. I will definitely be hiring this space again for future events. Thank you for having us and making our event so memorable.

Good café. We had cakes and hot drinks but there was a range of food available.

Always get a lovely welcome 😊 today I had dark hot chocolate 🍫 delicious

Last Thursday in the month meeting of classic cars held. Very nice place to meet , very good cafe

A bit hit and miss. Went for cake and coffee first, very nice setting and good cake. Second time went for lunch. Service very haphazard given that they had plenty of staff. I had booked but they hadn't reserved a table for us. Had to sit by the toilets, I suppose someone has to, but not great. Bought lunch out but no cutlery. The meal for the price was the meanest portion I've ever been served. It was a starter size. Two jam tart sized pieces of frittata, small yet tasty, with celery salad, also tasty, one cherry tomato and iceberg lettuce with no salad dressing so hard work. Hubby asked for dressing and was told it was already on it. Nope. For £10 poor. So .. go for cakes but skip lunch unless you are minted and a dry lettuce lover. 🍱

Excellent food and very friendly staff.

Great gem of a place,music, food,location,c u again!

Very disappointed. Linda took nearly £2000 deposit pre-covid for family weekend which had to be postponed due to the pandemic. When we tried to re-book for 2023 we were told that they were taking no bookings and refused to refund our deposit. Didn’t reply to emails or phone calls. Very questionable business practice. I suggest you look elsewhere. Linda, this booking was made by my sister, Penny Rayner. I can’t believe you would not remember a booking for about 30 of us for September 2020 and you agreed it should be postponed. The deposit should have been returned without hesitation as you have decided to take no bookings for the main house so impossible to re-schedule.

I hosted a St Patricks night☘️shindig here this weekend (March 2022). Stunning setting, venue was just the right size. Linda, James and their team were great and everyone who attended had a fantastic time. I'll definitely be hosting more events at Barton Court.

Charming & attentive staff. Excellent choice of delicious cakes in historic surroundings.

Fantastic location, charming place, friendly atmosphere.

Happened upon Barton Court by chance. Enjoyed a warm welcome and excellent coffee and cake today. Thank you Anne & Keith

Beautiful venue, very considerate and forward thinking owners. Nothing too much trouble.

This is a lovely place, with far more to offer than a place to get married. I attend Pilates sessions here held in the old Engine House, with Malvern Hills Pilates. Covid precautions are excellent. The cake and coffee in the loose box cafe is excellent.

Beautiful location, delicious food, cozy interior and very pleasant service👌

Called in at the café at Barton Court. What a Gem of a find. Great Coffee and Very Pleasant Owners. 10/10

Beautiful surroundings and very welcome hosts.

Stayed at Barton Court for 3 nights, in the Clock Tower with my wife. Linda and James were very accommodating, and the place itself was amazing! Extremely well equipped, cosy , hot tub was amazing and actually really easy to get going (it's wood fired). Barton court is well located for good walking spots and is only a short trip into Malvern for all your other needs. Would 100% reccomend!

Lovely café. Good coffee. Light lunches also available.

Barton Court is so special. We first came across it, by chance, in December 2019 and went for our first viewing early 2020. Subsequent viewings of other venues just didn't compare and we were quick to book for our 2021 wedding! With sweeping views across to the Malvern Hills, beautiful grounds and an incredible house it was a no brainer. When we first went to view, the main house was complete but their ancillary buildings and grounds still needed a lot of work. We are so glad we were able to see past this and see the potential. As time went on and the COVID pandemic got worse, we started to think about plans a, b and c. In the end we had to postpone but only by a couple of months, from May to July 2021. James & Linda were beyond accommodating of this and we are so grateful they helped us to coordinate a new date so easily, including a complete change to the day we had originally envisaged. During the pandemic they were also able to make huge headway with work to the grounds and buildings and WOW, what a result! We were pleasantly surprised when we were able to visit again, considering how many setbacks they would have had through such a challenging time. The day itself came and James & Linda truly spoilt us, we were so well looked after and we cannot thank you enough for everything you have done. Barton Court will always be such a special place for us and we hope, one day, we might get to hold some future celebrations there too.

Beautiful place, amazing location!

Fantastic place even better hosts

My wife and I spent a few days at the clock tower on the Barton court estate. A wonderful getaway and a most charming quiet place to stay. Linda and James are so welcoming and helpful. Beautiful and very picturesque. The clock tower is finished to exquisite taste with an original style. We hoped to use the hot tub however was prevented because of the rain, maybe a roof style cover could allow the hot tub to be used in wet weather. Cosy nights in are a must with the log burner, however the TV has poor signal due to not having cable, but a few channels were ok. Overall highly recommend.

What a beautiful place and such friendly hosts. A lot of work is being carried out on outbuildings, grounds etc. which will enhance the experience even further.

Lovely place and fantastic hosts. If you are looking for somewhere to host an event, you couldn't go wrong in choosing Barton Court as a venue.

Our in the back drop of the Malvern hills easy to find a prittie place with a feel nothing has ever been changed

We stayed for an extended family weekend. Coming from Dublin we had plenty of airport options within close driving distance. The house itself was exceptional and the surrounds perfect. I'd highly recommend and can see how it would make the perfect wedding venue

Stunning building lovely people
