Enjoying an elevated position surrounded by rich pastures and meadows, this pet-friendly wooden lodge is perfect for a party of four. Follow a network of waymarked footpaths, visit the local market towns or simply stay home and savour panoramic views across the Welsh hills; the dogs can let off steam in their own secure field.
Single storey and open-plan this high-end holiday hideaway is full of character, with local artwork and reclaimed treasures among its interior styling. The wooden lodge is set privately within the grounds of a smallholding, with shallow wooden steps leading to the front door. Step into the entrance porch to stow coats and boots before the spacious hallway leads into an open-plan living space complete with a vaulted ceiling and picture windows that perfectly frame the surrounding countryside. Cleverly divided by well-placed furniture, this space has a relaxing lounge area with a wood burner, as well as a reclaimed dining table where all can gather for convivial mealtimes and activity planning. The kitchen area has a contemporary finish and all the must-haves of home. When your day is done, choose from two bedrooms, one a king-size with views onto the countryside and the second a twin zip-and-link which, for flexibility, can be made into a super-king on request. A spacious bathroom completes the comfort for all. You’ll feel fully immersed in country life when you spend time in the enclosed garden – listen to the birds as you relax or fire up the BBQ for an al fresco feast. Guests are welcome to wander the enclosed meadows within the grounds and meet the local farm life. In the evenings, an elevated platform is the perfect spot to watch the sun go down and enjoy panoramic views across the Welsh hills. Two dogs are welcome here – they’ll love dashing around their own secure field.
A local network of waymarked footpaths and winding country lanes invites you to discover the neighbouring villages, while the vibrant market town of Leominster (4 miles) is a paradise for antiques aficionados and offers an array of vibrant independent shops amid a blend of medieval, Tudor and Georgian architecture. The beautiful cathedral city of Hereford is 10 miles south, while just over the border into Shropshire, Ludlow (14 miles) has a medieval castle and bustling farmers’ market.
