Watch happy hounds light up when you arrive at this character Herefordshire retreat. Situated on the edge of the historic market town of Ledbury, this spectacular, dog-friendly abode sleeps 12 adults and 2 children across seven bedrooms, making it ideal for a group break. With a hot tub, enclosed garden and BBQ, your four-pawed pal will be as ecstatic as the rest of your large party.
Pad happily through the front door with your pup and step into the charming library, where tails are bound to wag in delight. This cosy, characterful space, with its antique wood burner, shelves of well-loved books and a piano for cheerful sing-alongs, is the perfect spot for pooches to stretch out and snooze after a long countryside walk. From here, wander through cottage-style doors into the lounge, the heart of this beautiful home, where rustic beams, deep sofas and a glowing Smart TV invite you to curl up together for cosy evenings in. If movie night calls, the playroom with its cinema screen and table football is perfect for the whole pack, while your furry friend keeps a watchful eye. The light and airy kitchen and grand dining room make mealtimes a treat, and dogs included, of course. After a good night’s rest in one of the seven individually designed bedrooms, spill out into the enclosed garden, where you can soak in the hot tub or sizzle up a BBQ while your happy hound explores safely nearby.
Grab the lead and dog treats and head out on walkies at the Wye Valley (8.5 miles) or the Malvern Hills (12.5 miles). Both of these National Landscapes have an excellent range of walking trails and fantastic cycling opportunities. Pooch-friendly shopping and dining can be found in the timber-framed streets of Ledbury (4.5 miles).
