  • "This was my 2nd stay at Hurst Green & it was just as good as the 1st."

    Very well presented & equipped with a safe, secure garden. I had already booked again for next March. However, this time, I became aware of a nearby Army Training Area. Unfortunately, my dog is frightened of fireworks so was quite unsettled by the unexpected noises coming from the training area.

    Sorry to hear that your dog was unsettled. Fortunately the noise from the army camp is a very infrequent occurrence. So glad that you have rebooked for next year. Property Owner

  • "What a lovely property."

    From entering it felt just like home. We were holidaying with friends from Germany who both said what a wonderful place it was. On arrival there was a “welcome pack” of tea and biscuits, which after quite a long drive was very much appreciated. We all agreed that the beds were very comfortable and the other amenities were first class. A nice little bonus was the table tennis in the garage, which we made use of, and we were even able to sit outside and enjoy some sunshine The house itself was very well situated and the village amenities were only 5 minutes walk away, we can recommend the fish and chips and the pub restaurant. Ewyas Harold is an ideal base for exploring the area, Hereford is only half an hour’s drive away as are trips into Wales. To conclude, from booking the holiday until leaving to come home everything went smoothly, unfortunately we could only stay for six days as it was such a lovely spot, would certainly recommend.

    The only thing that let it down was the garden it needed everything cut back and tidying but having said that we have already booked for next year. We have an electric car there is a charge point at the house but we preferred to you a pod point charger on The Temple Bar Inn car park.

    I have arranged for a tidy up in the garden! So glad that you have booked again for next year. Property Owner

    There were a good range of pans & utensils in the kitchen and the beds were comfy. Walks from the door or a great place as a base for The Wye Valley/Welsh Border. If I’m visiting that area again I would rebook. In the small village there are 2 pubs, a chippy, a general store/post office and a butchers.

  • "Spotlessly clean, well equipped spacious cottage in a beautiful village."

    We are a family party of five adults and we found Hurst Green very comfortable with everything you could want for an enjoyable stay in the delightful village of Ewyas Harold. The beauty of the Golden Valley is stunning but without the crowds of many holiday UK destinations, a hidden gem. We were visiting family who live nearby and although it was November we were lucky with the weather and were treated to a backdrop of dazzling autumn scenery from the surrounding countryside as we walked on the common and drove to nearby towns. The village itself has two friendly and welcoming pubs serving food and local ales, a great chip shop, village store and post office, as well as two renowned award winning butchers selling quality local produce. We recommend Hurst Green and look forward to returning.

    Bedrooms and the living room were very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was well equipped and the table was a decent size for the 6 of us to eat at. We were lucky to have fantastic weather and were able to enjoy meals and relaxation in the pretty garden. The one thing which would make the property absolutely perfect would be to improve the linings on the curtains to provide some degree of blackout. Due to the fantastic weather we were woken early by sun streaming through the curtains, which are very lightly lined. We would definitely recommend this property, especially if the curtain linings could be improved.

    We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. I will endeavour to get the curtains some lining and hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner

    Great dog safe enclosed garden. Kitchen great size and well equipped. Good bathroom and ensuite. The village is lovely with a few basic facilities including a nice pub,butchers, general store and great fish and chip shop. However we had a few issues with the beds. The king size upstairs was fine. Unfortunately the upstairs double was very uncomfortable and gave a guest severe back ache. On inspection the mattress was very worn with a collapsed section. The downstairs twin beds were quite low and gave little support. We actually left a day early as we couldn't face another sleepless night. Another issue was the lounge seating. With 6 guests there simply wasn't enough room. There was only a 2 seater settee plus a mismatched set of uncomfortable chairs. If these issues could be addressed we wouldn't hesitate to return.

    We were sorry to hear that you have had a problem with the beds at our property. We were not aware of the problem but have now rectified this by ordering new beds and mattresses. Many apologies. Property Owner

All round an excellent cottage for a comfortable holiday , especially when it rains for extended periods nearly every day. The roads around Ewyas Harold are very narrow so nervous drivers might be put off travelling to the small villages nearby, but we had no problem being used to using passing places in Cornwall and Yorkshire, just watch out for 'fords' , if it does rain heavily, many turn into small lakes! Just a tip, do your research before you go, as there are many interesting places to see and visit, especially the Forest Of Dean, however, cross the Wye at Goodrich and not Monmouth as English signage is easier to read at speed than Welsh! We would recommend Hurst Green happily to anyone who wishes a home from home.

  • "Lovely house in a great location to explore the Black Mountains and the lovely Herefordshire countryside."

    The house was immaculate and very comfortable. Owners left milk and biscuits etc which was very helpful. The beds are comfortable and the house has everything you need. It is 5 minute walk to the fish and chip shop, post office ( village shop) and the two pubs. Would certainly recommend.
