Self catering cottage in Pencombe, Herefordshire

Accommodation details

This stylish cottage within the fringes of Pencombe village, on an established working fruit farm, is ideal for friends or families looking for a restful holiday in the beautiful countryside. Walkers can explore the marked trails from the doorstep or head to picturesque Stockings Meadow Nature Reserve (6 miles) to discover more about the local nature and wildlife.

The cottage is an ideal base for walkers, with easy access to the Malvern Hills and Wye Valley within 20 miles. Make your way across the landscaped grounds to this charming two-storey cottage with a mix of old-style elegance and contemporary comforts, providing an eclectic mix and a perfect first impression.

The cosy lounge area with brightly coloured furnishings is ideal for relaxing and enjoying a movie after a day of exploring. The kitchen/diner, meanwhile, is light and spacious, with a large table that's sure to become a social hub during your stay. The handcrafted kitchen has all the appliances needed to make meal preparation a dream.

At the end of the day, climb the wooden stairs, and upstairs, you'll find a bathroom and three bedrooms: one super king-size with an en-suite shower, one king-size and one twin. Open the doors from the lounge area onto your private garden with a seating area to unwind, making this a lovely spot for al fresco dining, soaking up the late summer sun or a spot of star gazing.

Several National Trust properties and gardens are within easy reach, including Berrington Hall and Croft Castle and Parkland, less than 20 miles away. Close to the Worcestershire border are the historic towns of Leominster (10.5 miles) and Bromyard (5.5 miles) which are both worth visiting. Ludlow (20 miles) is a perfect choice for food lovers, and with many local villages hosting small folk festivals throughout the year.
