About Suckley

Suckley is an attractive, rural village nestling in the shadow of Edward Elgar's beloved Malvern Hills. It perfectly epitomizes rural England with a rich array of lovely old buildings, some timber-framed with thatched roof, and a church dating from 1879.

Village amenities include two pleasant village pubs, and a post office/general store.

The countryside is mostly agricultural, with fruit orchards and hop fields.

Nearby is historic Leigh Court Barn on the banks of the River Teme and the tiny hamlets of Alfrick and Alfrick Pound where you can experience a wealth of wildlife.

Suckley is within equidistance of Great Malvern with its lovely old Priory church and the bustling city of Worcester with its famous porcelain factory and magnificent riverside cathedral.
