Travel

Worcestershire’s location in the heart of England makes it supremely accessible and closer than you think. If you are flying into the area, then Birmingham International Airport is approximately 30 minutes away, Manchester is 2h, Heathrow is 2h 10 and Gatwick is 2h 50 away.

Worcestershire also has excellent road links to the major motorways (M5, M6, M40, M42, M50) and London is just 2 ½ hours away. If you are using public transport then Worcestershire has many major stations throughout the county with a regular main line train service to and from London, Birmingham, the north and the south west of England. For public buses and coaches, timetables are available from National Express (08705 808080) and Traveline, for local bus journeys (0870 6082608).

Cycling is not only good for you but a great way to see the pleasures of Worcestershire at a slower pace, for information on cycling routes download the maps here.
