  • "What an amazing farm house."

    A fantastic large property to stay in and so quiet, ideal for relaxing and visiting the local area. Lots of wildlife to see and the most amazing walks through ancient woodland. Wendy and Dave were such amazing hosts. We would highly recommend this place. Thanks you so much

    Thank you Darren very much for your wonderful review, we do appreciate it very much. We are pleased that yourself and your friendly family enjoyed staying at The Farmhouse. We had great pleasure in meeting you all. Thank you Property Owner

  • "This is a wonderful place for a holiday."

    The farmhouse is spacious, well equipped (including an excellent selection of tourist information and relevant OS maps) and comfy beds - what more could you ask for?! The owners, Wendy and David, live next door and are very welcoming, but without intruding (as we have unfortunately experienced occasionally elsewhere). Their Old English Sheepdog is a character! Most of the time it is blissfully quiet and 'far from the madding crowd', but it is on a working farm so don't be surprised if you're woken up by bleeting sheep, mooing cattle, or the resident pheasant. You might also see green woodpeckers, hear owls and even see deer. One of the best places we've ever stayed.

    Thank you Heather for your wonderful review. David and myself thoroughly enjoyed having you, Robin and Diane holiday here in The Farmhouse. It is always nice to know and a pleasure to here feedback of customers holidays. Thank you once again and our Old English Sheepdog loved making friends with you all. Best Wishes Wendy & David Property Owner

    Beautiful farmhouse conversion, owners had put so much work into making it perfect. Views from every window were amazing. Their kindness and concern was just right too.

    Thank you Julie so much for your excellent feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your holiday and are looking forward to welcoming you both back. Thank you Property Owner

    The spacious farmhouse is in a lovely scenic position offering great views and a gentle walk in ample grounds. Lots of leaflets provided giving places of interest and locations for good food & refreshments. Great time had.

  • "The Farmhouse was a perfect quiet place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, sat on the patio in the sun looking over fields and hills."

    We did have to phone Wendy ( the owner) as we had no hot water, Wendy and Dave came straight round and looked at the boiler to see if It was something easy they could fix but a engineer was need, they came first thing the next morning and it was fixed,Wendy phoned me to let me know it was done, it was just one of those things that happen it didn’t spoil our day as there’s electric showers and dishwasher. We just carried on with our holiday. Wendy was so apologetic, even brought round wine, beer and a cake as a apology It was very thoughtful but not needed but was a lovely gesture. The kitchen was very well equipped, with alot more than I expected for a holiday home. There is nothing negative we can say about aThe Farmhouse, good location for travelling around

  • "The farmhouse is set in a beautiful location with gorgeous views in whatever direction you look."

    The cottage is surprisingly big and is beautifully furnished. The owners Wendy and David are the perfect hosts and made us feel very welcome along with their old English sheepdog Benco. We will definitely be returning.

  • "We had a fabulous week staying at The Farmhouse, with owners Wendy and David greeting us warmly on arrival and on hand if needed."

    During the week we had chats with Wendy and her beautiful old English sheepdog (respectfully distanced of course). The farmhouse is wonderfully characterful with a wealth of exposed beams and is very spacious and comfortably appointed. The location is very well connected with lots of towns to explore in a small radius, country pubs and not to be missed Eastnor Castle. There is much more to see, currently closed due to pandemic precautions. Our days were nicely filled, travelling as a middle aged couple, and returning for a light tea in the full equipped kitchen of an evening and a night in front of tv in the reclining sofas was just perfect. Even for maximum capacity of six you would not be cramped. The farm has cows and a resident bull, sheep, laying chickens (welcome pack including freshly laid eggs) and seven resident black and white farm cats mooching around the place. So very peaceful. We will definitely return and will certainly keep in touch with Wendy. This was the most perfect self catering accommodation we have ever booked.

The property

Ledbury 5 miles.

This wonderful, black and white semi-detached farmhouse is attached to the owner's cottage on their 180 acre farm, close to the village of Hollybush, five miles from the town of Ledbury in the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

With superb country views, this delightful cottage is filled with character and charm, with exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace and lovely furnishings.

Upon arriving, park up the car and soak up the views before entering this lovely holiday home.

You enter this cottage into a hallway with access to a cosy sitting room with an electric woodburner-effect stove set into an inglenook fireplace.

What better way to relax than to be with your loved ones whilst relaxing in front of the stove, perhaps after a long walk.

The kitchen is well-equipped and has a small dining area, where you can enjoy breakfast with more formal meals to be spent around the dining table.

Completing the ground floor is a shower room and a small snug.

After walking up the stairs you will find a seating area on the landing and three bedrooms off it; two king-size doubles and a twin, all of which share a modern bathroom with bath and separate shower.

There are no shortage of things to see and do in the area, with walks and cycle routes, and the cottage is close to the historic towns of Malvern, Ledbury and Tewkesbury, which boasts black and white houses, lovely pubs, restaurants, shops and all are surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Just five miles away is the market town of Ledbury set on the River Leadon and offers a number of timbered buildings, the 17th century Market House and The Painted Room, which is home to 16th century frescoes.

Also within reach are the riverside town of Upton-on-Severn, Eastnor Castle, the historic city of Hereford and the Forest of Dean.

A delightful Herefordshire holiday home.

About the location

LEDBURY

Hereford 15 miles.

The ancient market town of Ledbury (4 miles), dating back to 960 AD, nestles under the Malvern Hills east of Hereford, surrounded by unspoilt English countryside. Ledbury lies on the River Leadon and is famous for its numerous timbered buildings, including Ledbury Park, believed to be one the finest Black and White buildings in England, the 17th century Market House in the town centre and The Painted Room, home to 16th century frescoes. Many music, art and food and drink festivals can be enjoyed in the town and the surrounding area. From time to time music, art, poetry, food and drink festivals are held in the town. Nearby is Eastnor Castle, a fine example of a 19th century, mock-medieval castle, and numerous festivals are held in Eastnor Park. Close by is the historic city of Hereford with its 11th century cathedral, world famous Mappa Mundi and Chained Library. Malvern offers guests many lovely walks along the hills, a luxurious spa and for the car enthusiasts the Morgan Motor Company. Guests can also enjoy the local vineyards, travel along the Elgar Route, visit the Black and White villages and enjoy the many outdoor activities available in the Forest of Dean and beautiful Wye Valley. A great holiday destination at any time of year.
