Eightlands

Hereford 3 miles.

Eightlands is a charming thatched cottage settled into the countryside outskirts of Hereford, in the village of Hampton Bishop, boasting character features, a woodburning stove, and close by pub, making it an ideal base for a couple seeking a romantic retreat to Herefordshire.

Attention to detail and traditional features bring character to this delightful property, and the warm and welcoming atmosphere is perfect for couples to feel right at home.

Entering this space, you will be welcomed by a plush living/dining space with wooden beams threaded throughout, accompanied by signature walls and a charming gas fired stove, ideal for warming your feet beside after a long day of exploring, or enjoying a hearty meal with your significant other.

Tucked into the corner, you will find a softly furnished kitchen, carrying an almost glistening effect, for a personal touch, and boasting ample amenities for home cooking.

Through a narrow and enchanting doorway, a shower room awaits, with a classical white finish and low ceilings.

Moving up the spiral staircase, there is a tasteful mezzanine area, showcasing a double bed, neutral colours and oak furniture.

The wooden beams, stone effect and decoration intertwine to create an eye-catching country feel to the property.

Outside of the cottage, the theme is continued, with a black and white structure that echoes style from the offset, and there is a sitting area ideal for morning coffee, nestled into mature shrubs.

Wander out into the quaint village of Hampton Bishop, where you will find a local pub, the Bunch of Carrots, and for more amenities, eateries, and cafés, head into the bustling town of Hereford which hosts many historic buildings and attractions.

Hereford is a beautiful town offering attractions such as Hereford Cathedral, a selection of museums, and further afield, Belmont Abbey, The Blossom Trail, showcasing beautiful blossom trees from mid-march to mid-may, and the Black and White Trail, a forty mile trail leading to the historic town of Leominster and capturing views of stunning timber-framed buildings.

Explore the local area through the Golden Valley, where walks allow guests to enjoy the River Dore and the Black Mountains, or why not head into the Wye Valley, the Malvern Hills National Landscape, or the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park?

Visit the town of Hay-on-Wye, known for its many bookshops and yearly Hay Festival, or head over to Gloucester?

Make an unforgettable retreat for two with a stay at the charming Eightlands.
