This property boasts a wonderfully rural location on the owner’s 135-acre farm, set in rolling countryside on the border of Shropshire and Herefordshire. There are many miles of scenic walks to be enjoyed direct from the property’s front door, with Bircher Common being just a short walk away, giving access to the 30-mile-long Mortimer Trail, which stretches from Ludlow to Kington. The town of Ludlow (5 miles) is itself, a wonderful place to explore, with its fine medieval ruined castle, interesting historic buildings, and its well-deserved reputation as a foodie favourite. Other attractions in the area include the 1000-year old National Trust Croft Castle (4 miles), West Midlands Safari Park (25 miles), and the towns of Leominster (5 miles), and Tenbury Wells (9 miles).
A ramp leads guests to the front door of this barn conversion property, which opens directly into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Here guests will find a comfortable sofa, and a dining table, alongside the TV/DVD which open outs into a sun room that can be used to enjoy the views year round. The kitchen area, running along one side of the room provides everything that guests will need to prepare their favourite meals, including an oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer. A short corridor leads guests past the cloakroom with WC, to the bedroom, a restful space with a super-king size bed which can be made up as a twin room on request. The en-suite wet room contains a rainfall shower and WC.
Outside, two steps from the sun room lead to the private patio, which is accessed via the living area. The owners have provided garden furniture, making this a great place to relax and enjoy the pleasantly tranquil surroundings and views across the farm. Guests are also welcome to explore the owners shared garden which has a pond. There is off-road parking provided.
