Good to see Worcestershire mentioned. To be more specific, it's the Malvern Hills in West Worcs, on the Herefordshire border [1]. CS Lewis [2], Elgar [3] and Evelyn Waugh [4] were also inspired by the Malverns. Worcestershire is a sleepy, rural corner of England often overlooked by Londoners in favour of more "fashionable" counties like Dorset & Cornwall.
