About this property
A beautiful barn conversion on the owner's working farm, surrounded by stunning countryside, on the edge of the pretty medieval village of St Weonards in Herefordshire. As you step into the cottage you get a sense of the propertys superb quality and style, with a stunning well-equipped kitchen, and a dining area which makes a lovely place to relax and catch up with friends. From here, climb the four steps which take you into the splendid, light and airy sitting area, complete with sumptuous leather furniture and lovely countryside views. The two gorgeous bedrooms have a warm and welcoming feel, ensuring a good night's sleep after a day taking in the country air. A luxurious bathroom completes this stunning holiday cottage. Outside is a front patio area with furniture and BBQ, a superb sunny spot to enjoy a refreshing drink or alfresco dining on a summer's day. The views from the front of the cottage are amazing, overlooking the owner's lake and the countryside beyond. Enjoy a day out at Symonds Yat rock, overlooking the beautiful River Wye, in the magnificent Royal Forest of Dean or the pretty riverside towns of Monmouth and Ross-on-Wye, as well as the historic city of Hereford. Further afield are the Black Mountains, Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons) and the market town of Abergavenny, all of which offer great days out. A first-class holiday cottage for a memorable holiday at any time of year.

The welcome pack was a nice thoughtful touch.We found everything we needed was there.The bathroom was large and well lit although we could have used a shower seat for our wrinkly bottoms .We were comfortable and warm during our stay with lovely views across the lakes and countryside.This property was not really suitable for our dear friend Mollie the westie due to the wooden floors being slippery under her paws so perhaps bear this in mind if taking a dog with you.We really enjoyed our stay but despite this being a lovely property we wouldnât return purely because of the problems with our dog on the floors.Lovely walks around the lake and plenty of wildlife were a bonus for us.9 out of 10.

It was just as we expected and wanted. Even the internet worked after a little adjustment (placing modem closer to the window). The kitchen, the shower and central heating worked perfectly. The beds are quite comfortable. We had a great time in a great cottage. Thanks.

It was most frustrating that we had no internet connection the whole time we were there, this had been reported by previous customers making iPad use impossible for local information, communication and entertainment. A weak O2 mobile phone signal was available outside.
