Worcestershire is 'Going Green'
Worcestershire is a great place to spend a short break or a
family holiday without leaving a trace.
You can stay in an eco friendly cottage, a luxury hotel or a
quaint B&B all striving towards making Worcestershire a green
tourism destination.
There is also an excellent public transport network as well as
the National Cycle Network (NCN) linking
Worcestershire to the rest of the UK in an environmentally friendly
way.

Worcestershire Green Code striving to keep Worcestershire
as a great tourism destination for now and the future.
