Description

Millpond Bothy, a beautifully-presented farmhouse is nestled in the rural outskirts of Woolhope, Herefordshire.

Perfect for families or small groups of friends, this wonderful abode features an open-plan layout, a woodburning stove, and ample off-road parking, all within a stone's throw of a local pub.

Step into this delightful barn conversion to discover the charming open-plan living space, where you can cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen, toast to a superb holiday around the large dining table, and look forward to sinking into the plush sofa in the sitting area.

Here, you can spend your evenings cosying up with your loved ones for a movie marathon, while the woodburning stove casts a warm and inviting glow that creates the perfect backdrop for those cold winter nights.

When sleep calls, climb the stairs to be welcomed by two characterful bedrooms, as a super-king and king size awaits you to catch your night's rest.

Prepare for a new day by stepping into the stunning shower room for a steamy soak or refreshing rinse.

Outside, the front garden is a delightful spot to enjoy the fresh countryside air.

With a mix of lawn and gravel areas, it's perfect for a morning coffee or an evening drink.

The garden furniture provides a pleasant spot to sit back and relax, perhaps for a spot of alfresco dining with all the family, or simply to enjoy the tranquil surroundings.

If you choose to step out and explore the local area, you will be rewarded with an array of attractions and points of interest.

Millpond Bothy was delightfully peaceful and very well appointed.

It is in a beautiful rural area, and we enjoyed the walk to the village pub, as well as walking along Markle Ridge: spectacular views. Ledbury is a delightful market town which we enjoyed, as well as Brockhampton, a beautiful National Trust Manor House with extensive grounds and orchards. We did find that the lighting in some parts of the house was rather gloomy, especially as there was no bedside light on one side. The lighting in the sitting room could have been brighter. Other than that, everything was absolutely great, including the friendly owners. We were not impressed at all by the service from Sykes: it would have been useful to know that the satnav directed us further along the lane, and that the sign Croose Farm, on the wall, was obliterated by overgrown hedge. But we did find it eventually. The day before arriving I tried to make contact with Sykes to ask to be put in contact with the owner, so that I could ask some practical questions. This was incredibly frustrating, and I only heard back from Sykes a day or two into the holiday. You are very quick to ask for feedback, but not to respond to questions.

Millpond Bothy is an excellent and serene base for drives to nearby villages (Woolhope), cultural venues (Canwood Gallery), farms, and towns (Ledbury, Malvern, and Hay-on-Wye).

Very comfortable accommodation and amazing grounds/setting, being part of a large property. Would definitely recommend for friends or couples.
