Property code: 65507

Add walking boots to the very top of your packing list, because here you have the whole of Herefordshire on your doorstep waiting to be explored. Amble along waymarked footpaths, enjoy a day trip to the dramatic Black Mountains (just 24 miles away), or take a slower pace around the stunning walled gardens within the estate grounds. You will enjoy a true taste of country living, making it a fantastic bolthole for families looking to truly escape - four-legged friends included.

Backing onto a historic and well-maintained courtyard, this 19th century cottage retains many original features, and has been finished in a traditional style with a handful of unexpected, eclectic touches. Wake up with a late morning dip in the shared heated outdoor pool, which is available in summer months from 9am until 12 noon and shared with three other properties on site, or enjoy a friendly game of badminton in the shared court. Back inside the cottage, unwind in front of the crackling wood burner as you put your feet up after a busy day exploring, or on balmy summer eves head to the private open garden for an al fresco dinner, cooked to perfection on the BBQ.

When you aren’t out in the fresh country air exploring the county and mountains by foot, there is plenty to keep the family entertained. Culture vultures will love Hereford with its famed cathedral (18 miles), where you will find the medieval map of the Mappa Mundi and the unique treasures like the Chained Library. Meanwhile, the kids will be in paradise on the rope swings at Oaker Wood Leisure (11 miles), or meeting the rare and miniature animals at Small Breeds Farm and Owl Centre (4 miles).

A beautiful location, but we found the cottage to be very underequipped, especially for 6 people. The kitchen especially was lacking pots and pans and serving dishes which made it difficult to cater for 6. There were chairs for 6 at the dining table, but some of them were folding chairs which looked like they belonged outside. There wasnt any outdoRead moreor seating or table. We also found the property very damp - the weather had been wet, but even the bedding in the rooms felt damp to the touch. Hide

Beautiful location, if you want to get away from it all this is a great base to explore the unsoiled surroundings. The cottage was basic and had few amenities

We had a wonderful holiday in Gardeners cottage, it is perfect for three generations including children plus 2 spaniels. The pool and grounds were an added bonus as the children (5 and 7 yrs) really gained confidence in the water and they loved the space to play and run around.

This is a wonderful property for a relaxing week in the quiet countryside. It is not too fancy like some houses which, for us, made us more homely and comfortable.
