About this property
Woodlands Cottage is a beautiful family-sized house, with its own enclosed and pretty garden, in the grounds of Docklow Manor.
It’s situated in the tiny rural hamlet of Docklow, and has extensive views west of the rolling Herefordshire countryside towards Wales.
This spacious accommodation is perfect for family or friends seeking a restorative holiday in the rural idyll of this unspoilt county of apple orchards and hop fields, traditional pubs and picturesque villages.
A winding path through the pretty garden of Woodlands Cottage leads you to the front door.
Step into the large, stylish kitchen/diner, where you will find everything you could possibly need to rustle up a delicious evening meal before heading into the comfortable sitting room, which boasts a superb selection of DVDs, books and games.
Upstairs are two bedrooms – a double and a twin – each of them tastefully furnished and beautifully decorated.
There’s an en-suite shower room in the twin bedroom, and a separate family-sized bathroom too, with a bath and hand-held shower.
The property is set in the beautiful 4-acre grounds of Docklow Manor, which guests are welcome to explore. There are formal lawns, herbaceous borders, a kitchen garden, an orchard of apple, pear and cherry trees, and a wilder wooded area with two giant Wellingtonia redwoods, rhododendrons and azaleas, and at the right time of year, a mass of spring flowers. There are benches here and there, for guests to sit and enjoy the glorious far-reaching views towards Hay Bluff and the Brecon Beacons. Younger guests will find there’s plenty of room to play football, and there’s a trampoline too (on which children must be supervised by an adult).
Bromyard is a market town resting within the region of Herefordshire, between the town of Leominster and the cathedral city of Worcester. Within the town you will find a selection of shops, cafes and pubs, as well as an annual folk festival. Head to Leominster where you will find a larger selection of amenities or look forward to discovering a magnitude of walks in the countryside setting of Shropshire Hills aonb and even the Brecon Beacons National Park.
