Is Uplands Dower House Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families

Children have dedicated play facilities including a games room and outdoor cricket area. The extensive gardens provide space for active play on the games lawn. The family bedroom features bunk beds alongside a king-size bed. Outdoor areas include wildflower meadows for exploration. Parents should supervise children around the pond and on steps leading to the family room.

For Couples

This property is not ideal for couples. The five-bedroom layout and extensive facilities are designed for larger family groups and multi-generational gatherings. Couples would find the space too large for an intimate break. The sitting room with open fire and snug with woodburning stove provide cosy areas but the overall scale suits groups rather than romantic getaways.

Pet Friendly

Pets are not permitted at Uplands Dower House. The property's stock-fenced paddock is used for sheep grazing approximately three times per year. This makes it unsuitable for dogs. The extensive gardens and rural location might seem ideal for pets but the seasonal livestock use prevents pet bookings. Consider alternative pet-friendly properties in the Herefordshire area instead.
