Droitwich.

Overlooking the salt springs that gave the town its name, Droitwich has been drawing visitors to its brine-rich waters since Roman times. Today the pace is gentler, with locals lingering over pots of tea in the town's many cafes, tucked between the timbered High Street and the Georgian spa buildings. Those staying longer will find comfortable hotels close to the Vines Park lido and canal walks that thread through this quietly historic corner of Worcestershire.
