Beautiful location and great property.

We spent 4 lovely days in this original property Communication with Maggie was excellent and she was a discreetly available when we needed her. The location itself is stunning and this quirky property was a pleasure to stay in. Its proximity to the A49, makes for easy trips out. Church Stretton and Leominster were particular favourites.

Lovely antique property

We really enjoyed our stay here. The perfect accommodation for a short break, the views from the house were beautiful and the private courtyard was perfect for our doggo. It’s in a great location to explore lots of places near that are then only about 20 min drive. Lovely to just chill in at night too. The kitchen was our abso fave. Thank you for a great time!!!

Relaxing break

We had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous converted hop kiln. The quirkly layout was fun, lots of different levels! The beds were so comfy as was the roll top bath! The weather wasnt great so our walks were very boggy but that didnt bother us. We were so relaxed in this warm, cosy house we didnt want to leave.
