Henhouse Farm
Description
Settled on the outskirts of the rural village of Bodenham, Herefordshire, on a 600-acre working farm with breathtaking views is the idyllic cottage, Henhouse Farm.
It is the ideal retreat for a large family or group of friends boasting 4 bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, and the Shepherd's Barn, boasting another spacious bedroom, en-suite and separate kitchenette, all with ample parking.
Henhouse Farm displays many traditional features including exposed stone walls, oak beams and a wood burning stove, whilst combining contemporary living space in the orangery, where you can sit back, relax and watch the deer pass by.
Prepare a meal in the open plan kitchen, complete with AGA range cooker.
Eat your freshly cooked meal in the spacious dining room, and end your night relaxing in the snug with a family movie or a good book.
Offering peace and quiet, the Shepherd's barn is just a few steps away from the farmhouse and is the perfect place to retreat to, whilst being the ideal social hub for a games night or a soak in the hot tub.
Within easy reach of Henhouse Farm are the medieval village of Bromyard and the historic cathedral city of Hereford, the Wye and Golden Valleys, and the fascinating towns of Leominster and Ludlow.
Henhouse Farm is itself surrounded by beautiful walkways with unbelievable views, and with Queenswood County Park and Arboretum and the historic Hampton Court Castle close by, your possibilities to walk and explore are endless.
The River Lugg is also a hidden gem, worth a tour on a sunny day, or perhaps try some fishing at the local Docklow fishing pools.
You could finish your day of exploring with some delicious home cooked food at the 16th Century England's Gate Inn.
Make new memories, and enjoy a holiday with loved ones at Henhouse Farm you will never forget.

What guests are saying
We had a lovely week in this beautiful house.
The location and views from the house are spectacular. Nearby Bodenham Lake Nature Reserve and the Queenswood Arboretum were pleasures to visit , as were local walks and also Hereford Cathedral. Thank you for the opportunity to stay at Henhouse Farm
An absolute 5 star accommodation!
The furnishings were outstanding , from the quirky taps to the pictures on the walls , attention to detail superb, the hot tub ( a little too hot ) but the huge bi fold doors helped let some air in ,, Cannot fault it in any way , but if a rough road to get there , but well worth it
We enjoyed our stay at Hen House Farm, which is in a quiet and remote rural location with great countryside views and wildlife.
The house is comfortable and furnished to a high standard, particularly the bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms. We particularly enjoyed the large conservatory with its views over the surrounding countryside. On clear nights it was also a great place for stargazing, with views of the Milky Way. We enjoyed the walk along the bridleway to the arboretum, which is only about a mile away, as well as visiting the nearby Bodenham Lake nature reserve. We thought the kitchen could benefit from some rearrangement and perhaps an update of the rather tired kitchen cabinets and island. We arrived with a reasonable amount of food for self-catering, but there was limited cupboard storage space available for guests’ food. A metal bread bin and a washing-up bowl would also be useful. We did have a few issues during our stay. However, we have raised these with the property management agency and understand that they are taking steps to resolve them.
