This sympathetically renovated cider mill sits within the rolling countryside of Hope Mansell where its two barns now offer stylish open-plan living that’s simply perfect whatever the time of year.
With glorious views of the Wye Valley, this gorgeous property is ideal for a small family of four and their canine companion, the perfect retreat for keen walkers with vast expanses of dramatic landscapes on your doorstep. Just 5 miles from the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you could spend the day following the scenic river, perhaps with a picnic along the way so you can sit and bask in the sunshine. However there’s no need to leave home for a walk, as the property boasts 3 acres of grounds to explore, with outside furniture for dining al-fresco while your four-pawed pal frolics around in the meadows.
This property is a traditionally converted cider mill, with its history bringing great character. Inside, the limestone walls and beams give it a rustic feel, while the wooden touches and soft decor as well as colourful furnishings show its contemporary side. The open-plan living space offers a well-equipped kitchen, ideal for food enthusiasts, and a perfectly appointed dining area with seating for four. The lounge area is fitted with bright, comfortable sofas and a TV; everything you need for a relaxing stay. Upstairs, the vaulted double bedroom with a mezzanine over the lounge, is cosy and homely. Similarly the twin bedroom has lovely decorative touches, as well as each bedroom having a shower room.
The nearest town is Ross-on-Wye, with dog friendly pubs just 5 miles away, as well as shops. To appreciate the idyllic surroundings, why not explore the Forest of Dean just 10 miles away. The walking opportunities are endless, but for an added bonus, sniff out the Sculpture Trail, with beautiful artworks to admire as you go. There is also the Secret Forest, an ancient woodland trail with an iron-age mine that is bound to set tails wagging.
