Situated in the south-west Midlands, Worcestershire is a place of rolling hills and beautiful countryside, with a range of towns that have both industrial and rural heritage. At its heart is the mediaeval city of Worcester, with its iconic cathedral and riverside setting.
It is a great place to live and work, offering attractive rural villages, market towns, and a vibrant University city with excellent regional transport links.
Only an hour by train from Birmingham, England’s second city, Worcestershire offers the best of both worlds: tranquil countryside and city amenities.
