More Than What You See Online: Award-Winning Food and Rooms at The Crown at Martley.

When choosing somewhere to eat or stay, it can be difficult to know whether a venue will live up to what you see online. Photographs and descriptions can create a good first impression, but guests also want reassurance that they will receive excellent food, comfortable accommodation and a genuinely warm welcome when they arrive.
At The Crown at Martley, our latest AA awards offer that reassurance. We are delighted to have received Two AA Rosettes for Culinary Excellence for 2026, alongside our Four-Star AA Inn rating and AA Gold Star Award.
What do Two AA Rosettes mean?
AA Rosettes are awarded to restaurants that demonstrate high standards of cooking, carefully selected ingredients and consistency across their dishes.
Receiving Two AA Rosettes is a wonderful achievement for our team and reflects the care, creativity and attention that go into every menu at The Crown.
Our kitchen follows a farm-to-fork approach wherever possible. Herbs grown in our own garden are used in our dishes, helping us make the most of fresh, seasonal flavours. We also work with trusted local suppliers, including Knightwick Butchers, located just down the road, and Worcester-based Method Coffee Roastery.
We even hand-rear pigs for use on our autumn menu, giving our team a close connection to the ingredients and helping us understand exactly where our food comes from.
These details allow us to create thoughtful dishes that celebrate the produce available in our local area. You can explore our current choices on our menu page.
A countryside stay with thoughtful personal touches
Our Four-Star AA Inn rating and AA Gold Star Award recognise the high standards found across our rooms, hospitality and service.
We understand that an enjoyable stay is often shaped by the smaller details. Every room is prepared with care, with a handwritten welcome note and homemade biscuits placed on the bed for arriving guests. These personal touches help visitors feel comfortable and welcomed from the moment they enter their room.
Our dog-friendly rooms provide a relaxing base for exploring Martley and the surrounding Worcestershire countryside. Guests can enjoy dinner at The Crown, settle in for the evening and wake up surrounded by peaceful rural views.
You can discover more about our accommodation or book your stay online.
A proud achievement for our team
These awards reflect the commitment of everyone at The Crown, from our kitchen and front-of-house teams to those who prepare our rooms and look after our guests.
Although we are incredibly proud to receive these awards, we see them as encouragement to keep developing what we offer. Our aim is to make each visit memorable, whether someone is joining us for breakfast, celebrating over dinner or escaping to the countryside for an overnight stay.
