Alcester, a picturesque market town with Roman origins, is situated where the River Alne and River Arrow converge. Located just 8 miles west of the bustling grandeur of Stratford-upon-Avon and 7 miles south of Redditch, Alcester is a wonderfully vibrant and rich historical destination. The town, initially founded by the Romans as a walled fort, later evolved into a bustling trading and market centre by the end of the 2nd century. Alcester's stunning architecture now spans across the Medieval, Tudor, Georgian, Victorian and 20th-century eras.

The legacy of Roman and Anglo-Saxon times lives on through landmarks such as St Nicholas's Church, where the clock is situated in an unusual position for easy visibility from the High Street. Alcester boasts easy access to transportation, with frequent buses from Redditch, Evesham and Stratford-upon-Avon. Nearby majestic stately homes, Coughton Court and Ragley Hall, offer fascinating insights into the history and culture of the area, while families can enjoy an adventure playground for the little ones. The town is also known for its annual events, such as the Court Leet charity street market and the entertaining mop fair.
