The Property — Longacres B & B
Longacres B & B is a no-fuss 3-star guesthouse on the edge of Evesham, with a row of private parking spaces and a conservatory breakfast room overlooking a modest garden. The rooms are clean, compact, and decorated in soft pastels, with tea trays and free Wi-Fi. It suits independent travellers or couples who want a quiet base for walking the Cotswolds or visiting the Vale of Evesham’s fruit farms — the vibe is courteous, not cosy.
Crónicas de Evesham
Evesham grew up around a Benedictine abbey founded in the 8th century, later destroyed in the Dissolution. Its medieval street pattern survives, and the 13th-century Bell Tower still stands in the public park. By the 19th century, the town became a centre for market gardening, particularly plums and asparagus — that legacy shapes the landscape today. Culturally, Evesham is a modest market town with a small theatre, a riverside park, and the Almonry museum in a former monastic building.
Best Time to Visit
Guia completo de Evesham →Best months
May to June: long light, garden blooms, and the Vale's asparagus season; September: warm days and fewer crowds.
Peak / festival surge
August is the busiest month, driven by school holidays and the Evesham River Festival (usually third weekend). Hotel prices can rise 20–30% above July levels, particularly for rooms with parking.
Budget shoulder season
April and October offer milder weather, lower rates (often £10–15 less per night), and quieter streets — good for cycling and walking.
Weather & packing
Evesham sits in a rain shadow east of the Malverns, so July days are often warm (22–26°C) but evenings cool sharply. Pack layers: a light fleece and a waterproof jacket, even if the forecast looks dry.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Longacres B & B, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room at the back of the building (facing the garden or car park) on the first floor. This offers quieter nights away from Broadway Road's traffic and easier access without stairs.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms at the front of the house directly facing Broadway Road — they'll catch early morning delivery trucks and passing cars. Also steer clear of any room above the breakfast room or near the main entrance if you're a light sleeper.
Best views
Garden-side rooms offer a view of the lawn and mature hedges — nothing spectacular but pleasant and screened from the road. Broadway Road is a busy A-road, so the front view is mostly cars and pavement.
Quietest floors
First floor (above ground level but not the top). The B&B is a converted Victorian house, so the first floor is usually quieter than ground or top floor due to less foot traffic and better insulation from road noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Broadway Road is a main route through Evesham, with traffic noise peaking 7-9 AM and 4-6 PM. The B&B has no lift, so expect footsteps on the stairs. No mention of double glazing in the listing — front rooms likely suffer most.
Insider tips
If arriving by car, park at the back of the property — spaces are limited, so call ahead to reserve one. Request a first-floor room at the rear when booking; they're less convenient for luggage but far quieter than the front.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Walk or cycle – the town is compact and flat. Buy a reusable coffee cup for takeaway discounts. Shop for picnic supplies at Aldi and eat by the river rather than dining in tourist-focused pubs.
