Overview
Property code: 85643

The peaceful hamlet of Twyford sits just four miles south of the city of Hereford, here you can enjoy acres of farmland on a family run equestrian farm with horses and chickens where you are free to explore, along with many footpaths and quiet lanes accessible from the property. For cyclists you can enjoy the country lanes or venture into the Forest of Dean for a more challenging terrain. The river Wye is also within reach and great for fishing, walking, and canoeing. For a little culture there are many market towns worthy of a visit where you can pick up local produce from a farmers’ market or browse the independent shops. Hay-on-Wye, Monmouth, Ross-on-Wye and Leominster all welcome you with an eclectic range of independent shops.

Enjoy the drive through this peaceful hamlet and you will soon arrive to see the farmhouse set within acres of countryside. Step inside to the ground floor which has a chic and contemporary style and offers a great space for you to relax in style. From the entrance hall you access the open plan living space, you will be pleasantly surprised by the vaulted ceiling and natural light created from the bi-folding doors offering views onto the courtyard and open countryside. You can relax in style in front of the wood burner whilst enjoying a good film, and for dining there is a generously sized table and chairs if you choose to entertain. The kitchen area is compact and well-equipped with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. And when the day is done a staircase within the living space gives access to a generously sized king-size bedroom with an elegant glass balcony overlooking the living space. On the ground floor there is a shower room with shower and WC. There is also access to a washer/dryer accessed from the main living space, not sole use.

Outside an open aspect patio area with table and chairs can be found and guests are also free to explore the acres of farmland. There is off road parking for one car and storage for bikes.

Really loved the stay, the owners were very accommodating. The location is great and peaceful, very cosy and lovely walks really close by. Sadly couldnt use the hot tub so I would enquire ahead of time for this.

Idyllic location for a peaceful, relaxing break. Beautiful country scenery, great for walks or travelling out to the surrounding towns and villages. Hosts were very kind and friendly but not intrusive. And the hot tub is a must if you get the opportunity.

A wonderful, pleasant stay at this beautiful cottage, a perfect retreat for my partners birthday. We both had a much needed relaxing time at this cottage and the owners were very welcoming too. Definitely 5/5 will highly recommend and return too when some downtime is needed again. Thank you

Really lovely annex/conversion. The photos dont do justice to it as another review said. It felt like a top quality hotel. Fantastic bed and sofa as mentioned. TV also really good! I loved the bathroom and we were sad not to use the log burner but it was too warm outside! Recommend a visit whilst it is still all so new. Location great for exploringRead more and I really enjoyed the early morning runs. Hosts perfect and the horses are a delight. We only booked for 4 nights and wish wed opted for longer Hide

This property is in a great location and is very spacious inside, with lovely furnishings. If we did not have our dog, then this place would have been ideal. Unfortunately, this property is not secure outside - there is no fencing or gate between the drive and the lane, and the fields behind the property are not secure. There is nothing to stop a dRead moreog getting into the fields with the horses. Be aware that the owners also have a cat (which seemed determined to torment our dog). Hide

Hosts were incredibly lovely and the location is fab for lane walking, woodlands and very handy for local amenities. We found the property via Pets at Home dog friendly holidays, so it's worth being really clear that there is no private outdoor space here. The property opens straight onto a small, open patio which is next to the shared driveway, anRead mored is situated right between the family home and workshop so if you are looking for seclusion and privacy, this is unlikely to deliver.

Excellent quality finished annexe with a very comfortable sofa and bed! We found the location just right for being away from the hustle and bustle but only a short drive to get to where we needed. Plenty of space inside and although the hosts are nearby they were very welcoming and not intrusive at all. Would definitely recommend!
