“Fab time away.”

We were a large group with kids and it catered very well for our needs. The location was beautiful and the cottage was lovely. Would definitely go back.

There were 14 of us plus a baby. The teenagers loved the table tennis and pool room. The only downside was the road into the building. Would book again tomorrow if it wasn’t for that. Owners popped occasionally to see if all was well but left us alone other than that

This is a lovely big cottage which was perfect for a big family get together. The big dining room was really sociable and it was good to have the 2 separate lounges -one quiet, one noisy! The kids really enjoyed walking up the lane to see the pigs in the farm. It was also great to have the games room -plenty for both adults and kids. Lovely owner who kindly posted back a cuddly toy we managed to leave behind!

Thankyou!

“The house was exactly what we were looking for.”

The double rooms are all really lovely and there was plenty of room for the 16 of us. The track up to it is bumpy but serviceable. Really recommend!

There were 22 of us ranging from 1 to 70, celebrating 2 family birthdays. Great that there was a room big enough to seat us all! Fabulous location with beautiful views and only a 20 minutes walk to the local pub and 10 miles from Hereford. The games room, although a little tired looking, kept some of the party occupied for hours. Would definitely recommend.

“The owner of property was very helpfull and went 'above and beyond' by bringing in our ASDA delivery and putting the cold things in the freezer for us.”

Loved the cottages, comfortable and quaint but very well equipt, really is in the middle of just countryside which was great for us the children could play out safely. ... more
Loved the cottages, comfortable and quaint but very well equipt, really is in the middle of just countryside which was great for us the children could play out safely. The track up is very rough as is reallly just a farm track so maybe would struggle if you had a car with a low undercarrage, our cars all managed it ok. Would deffinitely recomened for large family holiday venue.

Quiet location in a beautiful area perfect for a large group. The cottage was clean and warm when we arrived and had everything we needed. Sarah ( the owner) was very helpful and I would defiantly recomend for family gatherings etc. the huge table in the dinning area which links the two cottages was great. We will defiantly be returning.

We all enjoyed our stay at Durstone Cottage to celebrate my 70th birthday. We were a party of 18 with age range ..70 to 3 years so a wide range of needs that were wholly met with this accommodation. The games room, whilst not in pristine condition, was ideal to entertain those in between hours and no-one was bored, in fact it got quite competetive ! The cottage is very clean, comfortable and very well equipped with everything you need. There are ample bathroom facilities on both floors. Good garden space and it is in a great location, lovely views and scenery and a decent walk to the "local" All in all a memorable weekend , rounded off with a great BBq. Thanks.

The house is very roomy, the big dining room is ideal for all guests to gather together & the smaller living rooms are homely and allow smaller groups to have a relax and a chat. We celebrated my husband 50th & had a very relaxing time. The location is lovely in the middle of the country peaceful and quiet. We highly recommend it & we will go again. The landlady is lovely & very accommodating.

An excellent venue for a child friendly reunion. Multiple families can stay together in relative comfort with plenty of useful amenities provided. Great for a big outdoor BBQ and plenty of space for communal dining. Very helpful owners and the gorgeous Herefordshire countryside is spread out around you for soulful education. This appeals to young and old alike.

The thriving village of Pencombe is surrounded by rolling farmland, beautifully situated amidst lovely Herefordshire countryside, just 3 miles from the delightful, medieval market town of Bromyard. Located between the cathedral cities of Hereford and Worcester, Pencombe is the perfect base for touring the wonderful surrounding counties renowned for their outstanding scenery, boasting many scenic walks and cycle trails, great nature watching opportunities and of course, a wealth of historic houses and gardens scattered throughout the area. Nearby Bromyard has an air of timelessness with many half-timbered buildings, helping visitors relax amongst a good range of pubs, restaurants and shops, whilst the cathedral town of Hereford dates back to Saxon times, and with its medieval bridge over the winding River Wye it is the very image of picturesque England. With a mix of buildings from almost every British era, eclectic Hereford is a popular base for those seeking to explore the locale – being ideally placed for accessing the ‘Black and White’ villages of the region, not to mention the delights of neighbouring Shropshire, Worcestershire and The Cotswolds.
