The Blacksmiths Shop Reviews

A very pleasant stay at a wonderful cottage. We stayed 3 nights at this accomodation, it's been well fitted out and was good value for money. Thanks for the little extra treats on arrival. It's a great central location for Ludlow, Hereford and other locations and it's only a short drive into Bromyard town. Thanks for being great hosts.

We absolutely loved our stay at The Blacksmiths Shop. The cottage is immaculate with everything you need for a break away from home. The little extra touches of treats, flowers and welcome card were lovely too. The cottage is well equiped in the kitchen, with extra fluffy towels in the bathroom, a very comfortable bed in a spacious bedroom and large sofa, table and chairs in the living area. The cottage is in a fabulous location with stunning scenery. Would recommend without hesitation to anyone. Thank you.

Lesley

Holly and Dave provided a beautiful clean, comfortable holiday cottage, with everything you need for your stay including of few nice goodies to help you start your holiday. We enjoyed the beautiful countryside and the walks down to their lakes. It was peaceful and relaxing sitting in the sunshine enjoying a few drinks outside the cottage. Just a perfect place to relax. Thank you

The property is lovely in a super location surrounded by beautiful countryside. We really enjoyed our short break at The Blacksmiths Shop which is a credit to the hosts.

Alyson

We visited Bromyard for my Husband's birthday and to visit family there. Holly was extremely helpful and kind and made sure that we had everything that we needed. Will definitely book again. We can't rate this property and hosts highly enough.

Such a wonderful place to stay for our short break. Accommodation was spotless with all the mod cons. We were made so welcome & the little gifts we received on arrival was a touch of class.. Thanks for making us feel welcome.. Would highly recommend The Blacksmiths Shop Paul & Be Be

Lovely cottage which has been so well refurbished to a high spec. Comfy, cosy and had everything we needed for a short stay. The owners were very welcoming & nearby if needed.

We had a very enjoyable holiday. Dave and Holly could not have been more helpful. This is their first season and we wish them well for the future. They were quick to sort out any problems, such as a towel rail that refused to work and overwhelmed us with a constant supply of clean towels. We would like to make one positive suggestion, however, and that is that more information should be provided in the cottages welcome book. For example, the fact that the bed lifts up to provide a large amount of storage space. Finally, the cottage is in a lovely location, both in terms of the surrounding countryside there are lots of walks and the fact that you are near to Hereford, Worcester, Leominster and Ludlow.
