1 Bedroom Cottage in Cradley

Stay in one of Herefordshire's first farm buildings to be converted into a holiday cottage, where half-cruck trusses, vaulted ceilings and original beams preserve its remarkable character. Designed for two, this distinctive one-bedroom home makes the perfect base for walkers, with the Malvern Hills and the Wye Valley both within 14 miles. The area is steeped in history, with several National Trust properties to visit, including the medieval manor house of Brockhampton (7 miles) and the 18th-century house and landscaped gardens at Croome (18 miles). Spend time mooching around the farmers' markets or tucking into tasty dishes in the abundance of cafes and pubs at Ledbury or Leominster (both within 20 miles) or admire the intricate architecture in the cathedrals of Worcester or Hereford (16 miles). The Malvern Three Counties Showground is located around 9 miles away.

This property is one of seven converted cottages within 8 wonderful acres of gardens, woodland and countryside. Once inside, this holiday home provides an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with mesmerising rustic beams and a cosy design that’s made for socialising. Curl up on the sofa and enjoy your box set on the wall-mounted TV before using the fully equipped kitchen to prepare your own meals, which includes an electric oven, hob, and fridge/freezer. Break bread around the dining table for two and enjoy the rolling views from the window. The first floor has a delightful twin bedroom nestled beneath the eaves. It’s snug and features access to the farmhouse-style en-suite with a cosy tub and skylight.

The cottage offers a pleasant outdoor space, with a lovely bench overlooking the Malvern Hills. Explore the 8 acres of gardens, woodland and countryside to your heart's content and then return to bask in the sunshine with a drink in hand. Private parking for one car is available on-site.
