The property
Orchard House is an imposing residence nestled among scattered countryside in Credenhill.
Just a few miles outside of Hereford, where you can admire a variety of architecture from almost every era, this house is a wonderful place to return to with family and friends alike.
Light and airy, filled with beautiful furniture and open fires, this grand house offers eclectic style and period features throughout.
There's plenty of room for all in the snug, the sitting room and even the dining room, with a large table perfect for family dinners and late-night chats around the fire.
Choose from circular walks in the area, ranging in distance, with rivers, hills and sites of historic interest.
After a tiresome day out, return to a long hot soak in one of the bathrooms.
Each of the bedrooms present a varied theme, yet give a slight nod to the period of the house.
Outside, the well-established gardens offer several spots to cool off with a glass of wine and a book, even enjoy a barbecue for lunch.
Manicured grasses, and clusters of lively plants and rose bushes come together with the green orchard - a haven in summer!
A house for a dog and a secure area for wet dogs to dry out, even off-road parking, the owners have thought of everything!
The surrounding village offers a local shop, a good pub and a golf course.
Whilst Hereford is home to the Mappa Mundi, the largest and most elaborate pre-15th Century map in existence, and worth a visit in the cathedral.
This is a splendid location for touring Shropshire, Worcestershire and the Cotwolds, and an impressive base to choose for your holiday break.
