About this property

A wonderful semi-detached, Grade II listed, ground floor barn conversion dating back to the 1900's, set in the charming grounds of the owner’s black and white timbered home, in the village of Yarpole in Herefordshire. The cottage offers peace and tranquillity and a great opportunity to completely relax and unwind yet is within a few miles of the market towns of Leominster and Ludlow. Beautifully converted, this character cottage provides luxurious open plan living complete with a vaulted beamed ceiling, well-equipped kitchen with dining area and a sumptuous seating area. The charming king-size bedroom has en-suite facilities and TV ensuring guests have everything they need to enjoy a much deserved romantic break in the country. The front patio area is an excellent place to sit and relax with a refreshing drink, after a day exploring this unspoilt part of the country. Alternatively, you could spend an evening at the local pub which is only a stone's throw away. If feeling particularly energetic, there are many outdoor activities to be enjoyed at Oaker Wood Activity Centre, or venture on the golf course to play a round. The pretty market towns of Ludlow and Leominster also make great days out as well as visiting one of the many National Trust properties in the area. An ideal holiday cottage for a romantic break at any time of year.

The thriving village of Yarpole nestles in beautiful Herefordshire countryside equidistant between the pretty market towns of Ludlow and Leominster. Mentioned in the Doomesday Book Yarpole boasts an award-winning village shop - the first full time shop in a church! Just a short walk from the village is Bircher Common, an area of lowland heath offering lovely views of the surrounding Marches, ideal for enjoying the peace and tranquility of the area. Close by, enjoy an afternoon visit to the Monkland Cheese Dairy, a working dairy producing and selling local, artisan cheeses, as well as offering a well-stocked shop and cafe. Leominster, dating back to the 7th century, possesses some fine examples of architecture including the Priory Church, along with a wide variety of shops, cafes, antique centres and pubs – it’s an ideal place to spend an afternoon.
