We are a well travelled couple in our fifties. I have recently retired after a career flying around the world for an airline. Rod works as an assistant racehorse trainer and freelance marketing executive. We love the great outdoors and also enjoy exploring new cities. We are so looking forward to seeing more of the UK, Europe and the rest of the world as Covid restrictions begin to lift. We hope to enjoy home swapping in the UK for up to a week at a time and longer for international swaps. We hope that the history and location of Worcester will tempt you to come and explore our city and it’s surrounding areas.

We are situated on a modern development built on the site of the historic riverside industrial area of Worcester. The area is residential only with no through traffic so remains blissfully quiet. The Severn runs adjacent to the development and links to the Birmingham Worcester canal. The apartment is in a fantastic position to access the city centre, which is a short walk on a level, paved riverside path passing Worcester Cathedral. Diglis boasts a lovely canal basin and the country's longest 'deep vertical slot fish pass' to bypass the weir, which you'll admire on walks round the river.
The city centre hosts a range of shops, restaurants and bars both independents and others. A recent development of eateries and bars underneath the railway arches is proving very popular and full of atmosphere. A very useful Marks and Spencer with food hall sits opposite a large Boots in the city centre. We're well catered for with supermarkets in easy reach, including Tesco, Waitrose and a new out-of-town Marks and Spencer, all a short drive from the apartment.
Some more of our favourite places.
There are some gorgeous cafes and eateries under the railway arches in the centre of the city:

Worcester is home to three railway stations providing comprehensive links to major towns and cities.
