We arrived on the Friday evening the VW show takes place at the Three Counties Showground. Having grown up in Worcester, and with family based locally, I had been reminded that the area would be very busy. We had a very limited selection of hard standing pitches available to choose from, and as we were staying for over two weeks, did not particularly want to move pitches. We selected a hardstanding pitch along a quiet back loop, relatively close to an amenity block, but without any views and at the furthest point from the dog walking area. We enjoyed exploring the local footpaths available directly from the site, as well as driving to explore the Malvern Hills including the Herefordshire Beacon, Midsummer and Ragged Stone hills, Eastnor Park, the Old Hills and National Trust estates at Brockhampton and Croome Park. When we were visiting the weather was a mixed bag of wet and windy, interspersed with sunny periods. We appreciated the hardstanding pitch for reducing the damp and mud.
