A grand canopy porch leads into the galleried reception hall; once you have settled in you will be able to relax and enjoy pre-dinner drinks from the bar. The fabulously bright and airy kitchen /dining room is a haven for the best of chefs with a contemporary styled kitchen with a central table and chairs for four is the perfect stop for afternoon tea with the papers or for children’s snacks.

Our family (six adults, four children under four and Lola the golden retriever) had a wonderful holiday in this fabulous property. Superb high spec accommodation, gorgeous surroundings and central to many local attractions. The owners communicated regularly to ensure everything was in place prior to our stay and were on hand to help during the duration of our holiday. There were so many thoughtful touches: champagne on arrival for my big birthday celebration, cuddly toys for the children etc.

We had the most amazing stay to celebrate a special birthday. Owners were so helpful prior to the stay and during. There was even a bottle of champagne on arrival which was such a lovely gesture. If we were to holiday in Hereford again we would love to stay here. We have already sent the details of this property to family and friends. Highly recommend and thank you for everything.

This is the most amazing accommodation we have stayed in. Fabulous location and so well equipped. The view from the hot tub was superb and a wonderful garden. We took both young children and dogs and both were so well catered for. A truly beautiful property.

What a great place. Real impact when we walked in with plenty of space and all the facilities you could want - all high spec ! Great for mixed family groups to allow some wanting peace and quite and others wanting activities. Surrounded by beautiful farming countryside but no negative impacts from the farms being run locally. 30 mins drive to spectacular places in the area and Hereford (10-15mins) has all the shops youd ever need. Make sure you eat one night at The Kilpeck Inn

The weekend stay was really wonderful for a reunion with friends, Joanna had thought of everything and the presentation and tiny details are clearly important which really made it feel like a luxury cottage. The information provided covered everything we could ask for and the quality of furnishings were high, including the pool table which was in high demand. The surrounding area was extremely beautiful and the nature around the house was magnificent.
