Gather six loved ones for a stay in this characterful converted hop kiln. Named as one of Herefordshire's first farm buildings to become a holiday cottage, this distinctive home continues to reveal plenty about its agricultural past, like the half-cruck trusses, vaulted ceilings and original beams. The location is brilliant for walkers, with the slopes of the Malvern Hills within 2.5 miles, and the Wye Valley gorges within 14 miles. Spend hours moseying around National Trust’s Brockhampton (7 miles), where a moated medieval manor sits among orchards and parkland. Ledbury (10 miles) is close enough for an afternoon of perusing independent shops and picking up groceries, while Leominster’s (20 miles) antique shops are ideal for anyone who enjoys hunting for unusual finds. Malvern Three Counties Showground is 9 miles away.

Step inside this former hop kiln to be welcomed with exposed wooden beams, original stone walls, and an open-plan lounge/diner that beckons you to relax. Enjoy your first cup of tea on the sofas and catch up on a TV box set before heading through the archway to the distinctive circular kitchen, which is fully equipped to rustle up group dishes with ease. Sit around the light-flooded dining table and enjoy the duck pond views while you eat. Continuing, the ground floor is completed by a charming double bedroom and a shower room with a WC. A staircase at the back of the open-plan living space leads to a skylit hallway with original features, and two twin bedrooms to choose from. Both are tucked beneath the sloping eaves and offer storage for your belongings. This floor is completed with a unique circular bathroom with a bath, shower attachment and WC.

With 8 acres of shared gardens and grounds to explore at your leisure, there is plenty of space for a peaceful morning wander or an evening stroll. The property also benefits from private parking for two cars, making it easy to come and go.
