Situated in the heart of the Three Counties area and magnificent Malvern Hills, Ledbury is the perfect place for a holiday. Take time out to relax and enjoy the wonderful scenery, picturesque towns and villages, and superb countryside. The Old Kennels Farm is a small, friendly, family-run farm of 24 acres, where tasty apples are grown in the on-site orchard, and each autumn they are harvested to make cider that is transported to some of the most prestigious venues in London and various outlets around the country. The holiday cottages (refs UK41822, UKC1766, UKC1767, UKC1768, UKC1769 and UKC1770) are conversions of old farm buildings that are at the top end of the site and are all named after old varieties of cider apples.
The farm is perfectly positioned on the outskirts of Ledbury in picturesque Herefordshire. Ledbury is a pretty, well-kept town in the east of the county, with fantastic examples of timber framed buildings, including the market hall dating back to the 17th century. Explore the town’s cobbled streets, which in summer are adorned with the most beautiful hanging baskets, and which have won ’Britain in Bloom’ competitions. Half a mile easy walk will take you into the town centre, where you will find public houses and restaurants, a small leisure centre, swimming pool and a gymnasium. There is also a variety of small individual shops and two larger supermarkets.
Local attractions include Eastnor Castle, a deer park, exhilarating Landrover experiences, off roading, golf, balloon flights, family pottery sessions at Eastnor Pottery, Hellens Manor, Newent Heritage Centre and The International Centre for Birds of Prey. Visit Westons, where you can experience a shire horse dray ride, sample Westons Cider on the mill tour or simply wander through the courtyard garden. Newbridge Farm Park is where children can get hands on with the animals or explore the Hop Pocket Shopping Village. Shop, pub and restaurant ½ mile.

We had a very enjoyable 4-day break at the old kennels. Lovely little cottage with easy access to trails for scenic walking with stunning views. 5 minute walk to the railway station makes for a car free holiday. We enjoyed being able to walk to Colwal and return home on the train after a pub lunch. The more adventurous could walk to Malvern and get the train back. Ledbury is a pretty town with lots of eating options.

Everything you need in a compact cottage. Tea, coffee, milk and a bottle of their own cider provided too!Brilliant place if you have brought your dog with you. You can start the day with a walk through the orchard.Lots to see and do within a reasonable distance. Try the dog friendly Brokhampton House and Garden, Hellens Garden, The Weir Garden and Brobury Gardens.Eat at the Oak Inn, Staplow or even better the Butcher's Arms, Woolhope both dog friendly. Or go to Panache Curry House in Ledbury and bring it home to the cottage.A lovely stay. Thank you!
