Tucked away in the centre of Fownhope in Herefordshire, is this fantastic two-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage, 1 Tump Cottages. Enjoying a stunning location within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a private enclosed garden, 1 Tump Cottages is a wonderful dwelling for two couples or a family of four plus their canine companion to get away from it all.
