“We had a lovely short break at The Old Barn.”

It's a delightful property in idyllic, peaceful countryside, and manages to be both spacious and cosy. The Christmas tree was also an unexpected surprise. We enjoyed a fantastic bike ride around the surrounding black/white housed villages, stopping in Pembridge for lunch.

“There were a couple of points which conflicted with what we were told by the owner.”

The TV channel changer had not been covered in clingfilm as per Covid guidelines and the sitting room had not been properly swept with a small amount of ash from the wood burning stove under the loose carpet. The wood burning stove had not been cleaned properly with the tray still full of ash from the previous clients. These are small points but given the emphasis on cleanliness with Covid around I felt it should have been better. The overall presentation and comfort was good standard and having been to this property a number of times it felt there had been a slight drop in standards given the hyper sensitivity of the guidelines around Covid.The table mats were also rather old and worn looking and should be replaced. This is a lovely property in a beautiful setting. Despite the minor suggestions above we would return to this property.

“Central situation to major points of interest in the area - Hereford, Brecon Beacons, Kington.”

Some beautiful walks nearby. It would be useful to sign the cottage from the A4111. We had to ask in the village and the farm was not well known. Either that or a clearer description in the information. It's basically the second left leaving the village northwards with a no through road sign at its entrance, 2.7km outside the village. It would be very helpful.

“An excellent place to stay with plenty of space!”

Really easy to get to with towns to visit nearby. The owner was lovely and the cottage has all the amenities you could need including extras like games/books/logs for the fire. Only issue we had was that the hot water is only on at certain hours in the winter but was stated clearly in the handbook, so would recommend reading it thoroughly on arrival. The signal was quite poor but is to be expected in a rural area. Would definitely book to stay again!

“I can not fault the property, it was perfect except it was in a very poor mobile phone service and internet area and we should have been warned of this as there was no access to a landline in case of Emergences.”

It was advertised as free WiFi but the signal was too weak.

Little Quebb Cottages

A pair of traditional cottages resting within the charming courtyard of a 15th century listed black and white farmhouse, close to the medieval village of Eardisley. Tucked away within a farmyard setting where the owners breed Ryeland sheep. Both cottages offer a traditional interior with exposed beams, woodburning fires and charming furnishings to complement, ensuring a memorable stay for a friends and family gathering to Herefordshire. To the outside of the properties you will find a rear garden area, where you can gather to enjoy a spot of alfresco dining or rustle up some summer treats on the BBQ. If you can tear yourselves away from this outstanding base, the surrounding area offers superb outdoor opportunities which include canoeing on the River Wye, golfing and walking along the Offa's Dyke path. If you are seeking something more leisurely, venture to the market town of Hay-on-Wye or the impressive Hampton Court Castle.

The delightful medieval village of Eardisley, located between Kington and Hay-on-Wye, is part of Herefordshire's famous Black & White Village Trail. It boasts many early 16th century black and white cottages, a 12th century Norman church with a unique font, two pubs and village shop. The whole area is renowned for its beautiful countryside, which provides excellent walking, cycling, bird watching, fishing and canoeing in the nearby River Wye. The small town of Kington is only 5 miles away, with 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 music of both Elgar and Mike Oldfield. Also within easy reach 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 truly delightful holiday location!
