  1. Situation  Most of the properties are in the pretty Cotswold village of Overbury, some are in the adjoining hamlet of Conderton, and a few close by. The Estate is situated at the edge of the Cotswold AONB on the southern slopes of Bredon Hill. Walk out of any of the properties to discover miles of unspoilt farmland, served by a network of footpaths and bridleways.   It is a unique place that many people fall in love with. It has a family atmosphere - perhaps because there are families with several generations living in different properties.  The countryside round Bredon Hill certainly is stunning but, in addition to the lovely old buildings, lots of entrepreneurs live and work in this vibrant area. We are also lucky to be close to Stratford, Malvern, Tewkesbury Pershore and Cheltenham for the theatre, cinema and other arts.
     
  2. Broadband We are connected to ADSL. Having broadband round Bredon Hill greatly improves communications for businesses and home users. It will help the local economy as more people are able to work from home.
     
  3. Support from the Estate team The properties are not managed from an anonymous office. The Estate has the back up of a building team to ensure our properties are looked after to the highest standard. Although some building trades are contracted out, the in house team work hard renovating and maintaining the beautiful properties. Good maintenance is a high priority to ensure that less goes wrong.   
     
  4. Vibrant Community Overbury has a thriving Primary School, Church and village hall. Conderton next door has a pub. There are currently active Cricket, Badminton and Bowling Clubs, as well as a Book Club. Not far away both Kemerton & Beckford have shops with  post offices as well as pubs. The villages (and those next door) have a large variety of clubs and organisations (tennis, gardening, WI, Scouts etc). We have built a purpose built nursery school to house the successful Manor Kindergarten in 2006. In 2004 we had a very sucessful Roots and Fruits Festival sharing our gardens, arts and history with visitors over a weekend. In 2000 we compiled a sucessful book about the village filled with photographs. See the community web site for more information www.overbury.org
     
  5. Location The area is  very conveniently situated to get to any part of the country quickly. It is well served by both  motorways and rail services. M5 junction 9 is under 10 minutes away and Evesham, Cheltenham and Ashchurch (Tewkesbury) stations cover several rail networks. Birmingham, Bristol and Heathrow airports are all easily reached by car & public transport (from local train & bus stations).
