The Orchard Reviews

Spacious and quality accommodation in quiet location. Great place for walking, cycling and relaxing. Plenty of books, games and maps. We've stayed there twice now and would go again.

Lovely place this. Very remote and private. Beautiful converted barn. The views are spectacular. The only downside for me was not being able to adjust the heating as all thermostats were locked so you couldn't adjust the temperature so without the wood burner on it gets quite cold in there especially in the bedrooms and bathroom.

The property was well equipped, from bedding, blankets, pillows, kitchen cleaning products to a generous welcome gift of cider, biscuits and dog biscuits! There was plenty of room space for four adults, one toddler and two dogs. We were there with our toddler. There was plenty of books, toys outdoor games to use. Even toddler plates, bowls, cups, utensils etc. The property is beautiful and location idyllic. The views are outstanding. The tranquility is to die for! We loved our stay at your cottage. Only negative was cleanliness requires improvement.

This is a very special property that is remote and comfortable. It has a real home feel with everything you would have in a home. Just be aware this is accessed via a steep in places single track road with minimal passing places and a steep drive. The walks around the village and from Knighton were excellent, varied levels of challenge and terrain! The house has every resource you need to make the most of the area. Three school friends had the best time thank you even hankered down one day when it was too foggy and stormy to go walking. Thank you

Steven

Beautiful house in a beautiful quiet location.

Great property with outstanding views. Really well furnished. As others have commentated a larger freezer would have been a bonus as the nearest shop is 7 miles away. But overall a fantastic place

Excellent property, very well equipped, superb location. Everything you need including maps, guides, recipe books and games, all of which we made use of. Area is beautiful and quiet, great walking. The Border Gold cider is excellent, thank you for the complimentary bottle. Great to have quality kitchen equipment, we enjoyed cooking there which is good as eating out options are limited without a little travel. I'd recommend both the Greyhound and Lion Hotel for drink and food respectively, great hospitality at both.

Lovely cottage, very quiet rural location with no road noise. Spacious and comfortable. Nice views from patio across valley. Bedrooms all large, comfortable and clean beds. Not over looked and very private. Exceptionally peaceful and relaxing. Good facilities inside and several toiletsbathrooms always a benefit with a bigger group. Lane approaching steep and narrow for those not accustomed to rural driving . Some areas of cottage were dusty. Only suggestion is that it would be lovely to be left a pint of milk and possibly a few tea bags on arrival. Having always taken milk over last few years, we didnt this time as have consistently found our holiday cottages have at least a pint in the fridge on arrival. Our Tesco delivery resolved problem a little later. Minor point.

What a lovely property. We stayed here for a week and really enjoyed ourselves. Nice to have a log burner, but the cottage is so cozy, you might not need it.but we do like a good fire. Plenty of places to visit. The church at the bottom of the road is interesting Stokesay Castle. Croft Castle Ludlow Llandrindod Wells, Lake Park Pembridge Tudor village. Westonbury mill water gardens, just outside of Pembridge. Berrington Hall. The only niggle I would have with the property is it hasnt got a freezer. Only a little one in the fridge. If you have a bigger family staying, dont bring lots of frozen food for your stay. There are shops in Knighton.

Graham

A superb cottage in a remote location with great views across the valley. Comfortable and well equipped, making it a lovely place to get away from the busyness of life.

Philip

The house was very warm nice to come back to , nice area and the little pub down the lane welcomed us in but very small, the stars at night are so bright on a clear night and no light pollution, only one thing we could fault was a lot of dust around on things. ... but that was the only criticism we have , would go back again

What an outstanding property! I can't rate it enough, it's roomy, and very light and airy, and the underfloor heating so welcome. Every room was colour coordinated and decorated to a very high standard. The bathroom was to die for, I felt as if I was in a 5 star hotel! The kitchen is very well equipped, and the poppy themed crockery very apt, as we were there on Remembrance Sunday. It's very remote, which made it so relaxing, there are no street lights, and almost zero traffic, great for star gazing. The Greyhound Inn at the bottom of the road was very welcoming, and the Coop in Knighton is an experience no one should miss. We will certainly book again, maybe in the summer, so we can enjoy sitting outside to enjoy the view.

Angela

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The remoteness was so relaxing. So glad that we had a 4x4. The cottage was equipped to a high standard and a lot of thought had been given to the details. Will definitely be returning.

Fantastic cottage in a lovely quiet area. Great facilities and plenty of room for our dogs to run around in safely. Lovely to sit out with our family in the day and evening watching the Buzzards, Red kites, bats and hearing the owls and of course the sheep. We would recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a break with peace and quiet and fantastic views.

Joanna

The cottage was absolutely lovely, clearly a lot has been spent on the conversion and fitting the property out to a very high standard. The views were glorious and it was very peaceful. The dogs absolutely loved the grounds and it was comforting that the garden was fully enclosed. The local area was very picturesque and most of our basic needs were met in the village of Knighton. The Coop is an experience but to be missed. If there was one slight negative, which is absolutely no reflection on the cottage whatsoever, is that the local villages, although quaint and pretty, have shops with very erratic opening hours. Several times we went visiting to find most shops shut, even on a Saturday. Presteigne even shut its petrol station which caused a bit of a panic. So worth some planning before visiting. Ludlow was worth a trip, that seemed to be open most days.

Fantastic cottage, with beautiful view across the valley. Property is totally isolated and peaceful, the dogs loved it and quality fencing all around the large grounds, they were free to roam. It is 20 minutes to the nearest shop.
