Set in the rolling Herefordshire countryside near Kington, this beautifully converted barn is a place to slow your stride and soften your days. Quiet lanes lead into lush valleys and ancient woodlands, while nearby trails invite long walks along the Offa’s Dyke Path and the Mortimer Trail. The surrounding landscape is rich with history, from the half-timbered villages of the Black and White Village Trail, including Kington (3 miles), Pembridge (6 miles), Eardisland (8 miles) and Weobley (9 miles), to countryside that inspired Hamnet, all within easy reach. Hay-on-Wye (16 miles) adds its own quiet magic, with bookshops, riverside wandering and the internationally celebrated Hay Festival each spring. Local markets, farm shops and food festivals bring the seasons to the table, perfect for lingering lunches and relaxed evenings back at the cottage. Venture to the nearby towns of Hereford, Leominster, Ludlow or Presteigne, all within 20 miles. This property offers a country escape well suited to literary lovers, food-festival goers and all-weather walkers.
Set in an elevated position with sweeping views across open countryside, this is a beautifully converted barn. While the owners live nearby in the main farmhouse, the cottage benefits from its own access, parking and private entrance, and feels self-contained and independent. A welcoming porch provides space for muddy boots and outdoor layers. The barn is arranged over two levels, with three bedrooms sleeping up to four adults and a family bathroom on the ground floor. There is a king-size bedroom, a double bedroom and a small double bedroom, all finished in soft, neutral tones, along with a bathroom with a shower over the bath. A practical utility room sits alongside the bedrooms, with a washing machine and additional tea- and coffee-making facilities. Upstairs, the open-plan kitchen and dining area is light-filled and spacious, making the most of the far-reaching countryside views. A large dining table with bench seating and a well-equipped kitchen create a relaxed space for cooking, eating and lingering together. The generous lounge stretches from the front to the back of the cottage, layered with warm fabrics, books to browse and games to play, with windows framing the surrounding landscape.
Outside, a large table and chairs sit within your own seating area, overlooking rolling fields and open views. Guests are welcome to wander through the 20 acres of fields and follow the path down to woodland and the River Arrow beyond. Private parking is available for two cars, with secure bike storage provided.
