Whites Farm Barn
Description
Whites Farm Barn is a wonderful barn conversion situated in Ledbury, Herefordshire. Though a rural property, it has easy access to Ledbury market town - giving you the best of both worlds. Internally, there are three bedrooms; one ground floor twin, one first floor king-size and one first floor double. It boats two separate bathrooms on both floors, making it accessible and easy for those with limited mobility. Every room has a wealth of character with those original exposed beams and vaulted ceilings. The lounge has a set of patio doors which lead out to the garden, and give the room an abundance of natural light. The country-style kitchen features a lovely brick wall, with spacious wooden worktops and a range of modern appliances. With a cosy dining room with seating for up to six people, the perfect place to dine together. Outside has an enclosed lawned garden with a picnic bench and a separate table. Ample off-road parking sits near the property. While you stay at Whites Farm Barn, why not visit Hellens Manor? A house dating back to Tudor times. It has been named one of England's oldest dwellings, with remarkable period furniture. You have the benefit of the guided tours, and a lovely tea room for lunch dining. The architecture is a combination of Tudor, Jacobean and Georgian designs, while the foundations are older altogether and date back to the 12th century. It is a magnificent piece of architecture and shouldn't be missed during your visit. Whites Farm Barn is the perfect property for remote holidays.

What guests are saying
We enjoyed our stay at Whites Farm Barn.
It was a quirky unusual property in a quiet rural location and the owner was helpful and accommodating. The kitchen was well equipped and the bedrooms were comfortable. However the towels were small and, though clean, well worn with only one per person. We note that this has been raised in previous reviews as far back as 2023.
Firstly is the lack of Wi-Fi, the property is in a rural area, however, there is only a booster in the cottage from the main building.
The owner herself did mention that another neighbour has improved his and I really feel that if you are renting your property there should be sufficient coverage. Secondly, to be told that there is only enough hot water for one bath in a 24 hour period again is not good enough. Yes the shower downstairs provides hot water but what is the point of having two bathrooms, which is what we requested if you can only use one. We were disappointed that the only hand soap in the downstairs bathroom was second hand and that the quality of the towels was extremely poor. We were supplied with one hand towel and one small bath towel which meant there were no extra towels for drying hands. In the end we went to Isacc's in Ledbury and purchasing our own. We were also not impressed with the fact that the glass ware and serving bowls etc, were plastic and there were only two sharp knives provided, again we purchased a couple of wine glasses. The kitchen itself is a good size, however, all the white goods are antiquated and could do with being replaced. One of our biggest concerns was the fact that with the owner living behind the property we felt we had no privacy, and felt we couldn't sit out in the garden without being disturbed. We were also requested to close the curtains on that side of the barn due to her tenant in the cottage next door. She came to the property every day on some errand or another, I know in the visitors book some people found her helpful but when you are in your nightwear and about to have breakfast a knock at the door with the dog and the cat in tow was one step too far. The curtains in both bedrooms of the barn do not fit the windows, they are made from a light cotton and shaped like a sail which means that the light streams in through the window around 5.00am. We also appreciated that we were staying in a barn but to be woken by bats flying around at 3.00 am doesn't help your rest. We actually ended up going to stay with friends to get a decent night's sleep. I appreciate that Sykes gives a 5 tick rating but I really feel you should go back to the property and look again! Would definitely not recommend.
We had an excellent time.
It was the perfect location for our family's Christmas get-away. Mary is a generous and caring host who made our stay just perfect. The house is very comfortable and within easy reach of local sights and walks.
