"Booked a short break of three nights."
The cottage has everything that you need for a pleasant stay and the basket of goodies on arrival was much appreciated. Only gave 4 stars as it would have been nice to have had some personal contact with the owners whilst staying - even just a Hello especially as I was a solo guest. Also the reception in the evening for the TV was poor so was glad that I had my laptop and was able to watch programmes on that. Overall though a good place to stay for the area.

"We didn’t find the property to be anything like the photo on line, looking very tired needs some TLC ceiling upstairs very low had to very careful when walking round."
Very nice people but our expectations were for more comfort.
Apologies for my delay in responding to your comments, however I was still picking myself up of the floor!! How you can say the property is nothing like the photo is quite simply misleading. The photo shows the kitchen, as it is. The living room as it is, apologies that we had not dressed the table for you, and we have replaced the rug due to damage. The upstairs is as the photo depicts, the bedroom does have low ceilings, and I have tried to depict this in the photo, however we have found that this is the best place to position the bed for maximum headroom when reading in bed. We are due to have the radiators and walls re-painted in December, and the arm chair will be replaced, but still feel we offer good value for money, and are always on hand if there is a problem. I only wish you had made your concerns known at the time, as quite frankly if you disliked our property so much I would rather have given you your money back and wished you safe travels, than receive such a poor review!

The bed is so comfortable and the bedroom itself is fresh and modern. A lovely room walk into. The owners are on hand if needed (we didn't need for anything) and they gave us use of their beautiful Meadow which our greyhound LOVED and made fab use of her free zooming. Fabulous quiet spot with stunning views and walks. Thank you for our lovely stay.

"We had a lovely week at Holmer Farm cottage."
The cottage was very clean and comfortable with a wonderful welcome basket full of goodies. A very quiet and peaceful location. Outside area was fenced off which was perfect for our dog. We were also able to give the dog a longer walk in the evening in the field behind the cottage and along the surrounding lanes. Ideal base for visiting the Herefordshire countryside and towns. Numerous National Trust sites within easy reach.

"A truly excellent, comfortable cottage."
It was a cool, damp week so we spent more time in the cottage than normal for us. The sofa was comfortable, there was plenty of space, it was warm & the heating could be adjusted, the oven heated up quickly, the shower had good pressure & the bed was very comfortable. It's completely quiet so we slept well. The welcome pack was so generous we were still eating some at the end of the week.
But best of all there are tawny owls in the tree right at the back of the cottage who flew past when we walked the dog in the evenings.
It was a very relaxing break & just what we needed.

"The only disappointment for us was that we were unable to stay at the property for the full 7 days due to a family medical issue, but the 4 nights we did stay were lovely."
It’s incredible value for money first and foremost, plus it’s very quiet with lovely views across farmland. We loved the field next to the cottage to exercise our border collie before going out for the day and we also liked the convenience of being able to park right outside.
We visited Croft Castle, Berrington Hall and Brockhampton Park… all National trust and beautiful and Queenswood Country Park which our dog loved.
The area is wonderful too, Ludlow is a gem with its market 4 days a week.
Highly recommended if you want peace and quiet in a comfortable relaxed setting.

"Visitors are well provided for with generous welcoming provisions, from necessities like milk, and in the cupboards, coffee and tea, with additionally treats like wine , crisps and biscuits."
The fabric and furnishings are of very good quality. However, the bedroom in the roof space is the major negative. The ( unnecessarily) large bed takes up the vast majority of the floor space in which head height would allow safe walking, the sloping rafters coming down to allow only very small walls, approximately 2'6" or 75 cms. with very low chests of drawers for clothing fitted almost against those walls. The sloping roof meant difficult access. And the lack of head height meant no proper wardrobe could be accommodated. Practicalities suffered in favour of appearances. A good example was trailing plants in a tiny bathroom when shelf space should have been the priority. Overall, a generously well equipped property but not very practical.

The cottage can be found down very narrow lanes which let's you know it is going to be peaceful with just countryside sounds around. The cottage itself was clean, tidy and had everything needed for a comfortable stay and more. We had never had such a lovely welcoming hamper of goodies to welcome us which was a very nice touch. The owners are right next door but don't intrude at all but are at the end of a phone if you have any questions.
We have stayed in many cottages and this is at the top of the list for everything. If we ever go to Herefordshire we would definitely book Holmer Farm Cottage again.
