KINGTON

Presteigne 6 miles; Hay-on-Wye 12 miles.

The small town of Kington, known as the "centre for walking", is situated near the Welsh Borders in the area known as The Marches. The area is renowned for its lovely scenery and for its excellent walking in the surrounding rolling hills. This pleasant town has a number of good shops, pubs, restaurants and a variety of tourist attractions close by including Eastnor Castle, Hergest Croft Gardens, the Offa's Dyke Path, the Mortimer Trail and the lovely walk to Hergest Ridge, the inspiration for the beautiful music of both Elgar and Mike Oldfield! Also within easy reach and well worth a visit is the delightful town of Hay-on-Wye, with its numerous book shops, craft shops and antique shops, and the ancient city of Hereford with its impressive Norman cathedral and famous Mappa Mundi, a 13th Century cartographer's interpretation of the world. A delightful holiday location!

Great home from home cottage, spotlessly clean. Ideal location with plenty of local walks to suit all!

The cottage had been rebuilt about a year ago and has been very thoughtfully done. The furnishing were very thoughtful and high quality and included extras like alarm clocks, bath sheets rather than just bath towels.

This was the best cottage we have booked through your excellent company. Coupled with the glorious Herefordshire countryside, it made for a lovely holiday.

Property was excellent, we didn't want to leave. With Eastnor Castle about an hour's drive away which is well worth a visit.

I know it rarely happens but the standard of all aspects of the accommodation was really excellent, it seems really new so that helps but we found everything in the cottage we could possibly need e.g ample towels and bedding, lots of crockery, pots and pans. The wood burning fire was fabulous. The cottage succeeded in feeling cosy, while at the same time modern and spotlessly clean.
