This property enjoys a fantastic location within 135-acres of farmland, beyond which there is miles of beautiful countryside to be explored and enjoyed. Bircher Common is within walking distance of the property, giving access onto the Mortimer Trail: a 30-mile walking trail taking in the best of the Shropshire and Herefordshire countryside. Also within walking distance is the pretty village of Orleton, where visitors will find two welcoming pubs, ideal for a quick pint or perhaps a hearty pub lunch. The National Trust property of Croft Castle is just a few miles away, a stunning manor house surrounded by 1500 acres of grounds. For those who enjoy sampling the local food, the town of Ludlow is just a short drive away and offers a wide range of restaurants specialising in local food, as well as the annual food festival.

On entering this Grade II listed property, guests will find themselves in the upper-floor open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with its attractive beamed ceilings, large corner sofa, and dining table. The kitchen area is well-equipped with everything that guests will need including 2 oven's, hob, microwave, and dishwasher, whilst the washer/dryer can be found housed in a separate utility room. Taking the stairs to the lower floor, there are two of the property’s bedrooms: the first of these is a super-king size room which can be made up as a twin on request, and benefits from an en-suite shower room and WC. The second room on this floor is a king-size room, again with an en-suite shower and WC. Both of these bedrooms have their own TV and DVD, as do the two further bedrooms which are located downstairs on the bottom floor. The first of the rooms on this floor is a super-king which can be made up as a twin on request, and has an en-suite shower room with WC, whilst the final room contains a super-size bed (that can be made as a twin upon request) with an en-suite bathroom offering a shower-over-bath and WC. There is also a convenient separate WC situated on the property’s middle floor.

There is plenty of outside space with this property, not only the 135 acres of farmland, but also the garden which has a spacious terrace with garden furniture which easily accommodates eight guests or 10 guests if you book the Parlour next door, whether they want to enjoy alfresco drinks in the evening or take their meals outside.

ideal spot for a holiday in the countryside but with quick access to the likes of Ludlow, Leominster and Hereford. Good pubs nearby (particularly The Boot in Oregon). Good for car parking. Extremely friendly owners who are there to help if and when required.

What an absolute gem! Wonderful accommodation in wonderful countryside. The owner and her family were perfect hosts, catering for everything along with a warm welcome. The washing machine broke on our second day and a brand new replacement was installed the next day. Superb service! Highly recommended for a family gathering or just a getaway.

This is a really lovely property, in a great location. Very comfortable beds, unusually well equipped kitchen for a holiday cottage, and nice seating area. Plenty of good walking opportunities, and Ludlow is a really nice town to potter around. Highly recommended.

We had a fabulous stay during half term! The barn is beautiful and cosy with plenty of room to accommodate our 2 families without any issues. We really appreciated the well appointed kitchen (plenty of cups, glasses, cutlery and crockery) and the little extras in the bathrooms. The rural location is ideal for shorts walks and longer hikes and the lRead moreovely town of Ludlow is only a short drive away. Plenty of pubs serving good food nearby too. Thank you owners and family! Hide

It was a lovely big barn cottage that was very well equipped, the owners were very friendly and helpful with local information on the area and the best places to park in the various towns we visited. There was a great patio with furniture and a lovely garden to walk in around a pond with resident ducks.
