Beautifully renovated in 2026, this superb escape is designed for solo travellers or couples seeking a relaxing base from which to explore this delightful corner of Herefordshire. The lovely village of Madley is less than 1 mile away, where you’ll find a useful shop, a nine-hole golf course and tennis courts. The welcoming village pub has a cosy bar, a beer garden, a restaurant and a darts/pool room – a great place to relax after a day outdoors. There are walks from your front door, either along the River Wye or across farmland, woodland and open countryside, or you could head further afield and hike the Offa’s Dyke Path, Hay Bluff or the Black Mountains, all within 20 miles. You can also fish the River Wye, or hire a canoe from Preston-on-Wye (4 miles). While in the area, don’t miss a trip to the renowned book town of Hay-on-Wye (15.5 miles). Set over a single storey, the former barn is located within the grounds of the owner’s home, to the front of a stables yard. Offering bright, spacious, open-plan living, it has a tranquil, relaxing atmosphere that’s perfect for a rural retreat. From the front door, head into the spacious kitchen area, where you can kick off your boots and hang your coats as well as unpacking any delicious local produce you may have picked up on your travels. Sleek cupboards, plenty of worktop space and an array of appliances – including a dishwasher and a microwave – will make the cook happy. Ahead of you, the open-plan space continues, with a dining table and a relaxed seating area that faces patio doors overlooking the farm entrance and the wider countryside. A second, cosy area features a reclining sofa and a Smart TV, ready to stream a favourite movie or a box set. When you start to yawn, find a double bedroom with king-size bed, ample storage, a dressing table and garden views. A stylish shower room completes this high-quality accommodation. To the rear is a garden with table and chairs for summer dining. Adding to the appeal, you’ll also have off-road parking for one car within the stable yard.
