Experience an oasis of calm in this lodge-style holiday home, a place engulfed by natural surroundings with plenty of peaceful spots to sit and admire the elements around you. A five-guest group is invited to make use of the many outdoor appeals on-site including woodlands to explore and a natural swimming pool for a dip, also enjoying easy access to endless hiking routes and mountain biking opportunities in the Wye Valley (8 miles) and amongst the Malvern Hills (4.5 miles). Further afield, discover the England-Wales border with the Brecon Beacons gateway town of Hay-on-Wye less than 32 miles.

Plenty of wood panelling and traditional oak furnishings maintain the au naturel styling of this countryside cottage. Take steps up into the pretty lounge where ample seating options are positioned opposite a Smart TV/DVD and a wood burner for your cosy nights in. Next door, a kitchen/diner is on hand for whipping up tasty meals and a single bedroom with an adjacent shower room is just down the hallway. Two further bedrooms, a king-size with a fabulous balcony and a double bedroom, are both accessed on the first floor, each offering an en-suite bathroom. Spend time outdoors on your private decking with outdoor seating and a BBQ, or get to know the swimming pool, sauna and gym that’s shared with other properties on-site.

In striking Herefordshire, the property is within easy reach of the poetry town of Ledbury (4 miles) with its historic town streets, an annual literary festival and ample nearby orchards where local cider is produced. Footpaths lead out of the town and into the midst of the Malvern Hills, with Eastnor Castle and its adjacent deer park (5.5 miles) a must-visit on the outskirts of town. Moving in the opposite direction, spend time in the Wye Valley discovering endless pretty scenery along the River Wye (8 miles).
