Overview
Property code: 81293

A stylish and beautifully finished pod set within acres of Herefordshire’s countryside with views across the lake and a private hot tub, providing the perfect base for couples looking to relax.

The hamlet of Aconbury consists of well-established farmland and an estate church, here you can leave the car behind and amble across the waymarked footpaths within 630 acres of farm and woodland or for keen anglers a well-stocked coarse fishing lake awaits. This area is perfect for explorers and within easy reach of the Wye Valley Way, Offa’s Dyke and the Forest of Dean. In the summertime, why not hire a canoe and take time to enjoy the river? A trip to one of the many market towns is a must where you can pick up local produce from a farmers' market or browse the independent shops. Hay-on-Wye is famed for books and the annual international literary festival and the market towns of Ross-on-Wye, Monmouth and Leominster all welcome you with an eclectic range of independent shops.

Set within acres of established farmland, leave the car behind and amble down the pathway to your enclosed garden. The pod has been thoughtfully designed and offers everything for a stay in the countryside. The covered porchway is a perfect place for leaving your boots behind before stepping inside. The pod offers spacious open-plan living that’s perfect for couples or a small family. The living area offers comfortable seating where you can relax in front of the TV, a table and chairs for dining with views onto the countryside, a kitchen space that’s got great workspace with an induction hob, countertop oven, microwave, fridge and dishwasher. When the day is done enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep in the king-size bed, where the bed also offers storage. There is a shower room with shower and WC.

Outside sits an enclosed area that’s perfect for entertaining. Here you can enjoy dining outside with a table and chair in front of the chimenea and gas BBQ, as well as unwinding in a private hot tub where you can relax after a day walking – there’s also a handy storage shed. Free coarse fishing on the two lakes available, book a spa treatment with the owner prior to arrival with the mobile spa.

I cannot fault this glamping experience, and it was definitely one of the more glam glamps we've been on. Of particular note was the hot tub (glorious!), the enclosed area around the pod which meant we could let the dog out for a wee without worry, and the myriad of kitchen appliances - oven, hob, microwave, fridge and DISHWASHER. What a treat! TheRead more pod was also bigger than many we'd stayed in, whilst still retaining the cosy feeling, and the view was gorgeous. And so peaceful as well. Hide

This was the perfect luxe get-away for me and my dog! So peaceful despite being on a working farm that owns the land around for as far as the eye can see which was perfect for lots of long walks followed by a soak in the hot tub. The owners were so lovely and welcoming. The pod was perfect, clean and well equipped and the plot it sat on was fenced Read moreand perfectly secure for the dog. I would highly recommend and will be back! Hide

We had a fantastically peaceful & relaxing time at Aconbury Pods. It was spotlessly clean, very well equipped, warm, cosy & comfortable. Alan & Ginnie were very welcoming & friendly, also very informative. Enjoyed lovely walks around the farm and wood and fishing on the 2 lakes. Safe enclosed garden where our puppy enjoyed playing outside. The hot Read moretub, well, that was perfect to relax in with a glass of wine and enjoy the views and the stars of an evening. Cosy too sitting by the Chimnea. Hide
