But if were staying longer there is no washing machine or facility for drying clothes. Our dog is a shitzpoo who would have loved to run. But as we found she easily managed to get under some fencing so had to have her on a lead. The cottage is very well situated for pubs, shops and the surrounding areas are beautiful. The cottage is clean, very warm. We enjoyed our stay.

The cottage has a lovely, cosy feel and has stunning views of the Ledbury countryside. The kitchen is really well equipped and has everything you could need, the lovely gesture of milk and biscuits was nice too. The bed was really comfortable, and even in December the cottage was nice and warm with the heating. We would definitely return for another visit.
