Beautiful Cottage, ideally situated just 5 mins drive from Tenbury Wells but situated off a country lane giving a rural feel. The cottage has a private pretty courtyard. The kitchen is very well equipped, the living room is very comfortable and the beds too. We would definitely book this property again!

A delightful property in the middle of the countryside.

If you like your holidays in a very quiet location, the Hop Kiln is certainly that. A homely property with plenty of charm, it was lovely to come back to after bracing country walks and settle in front of the log burner.

Beautiful location and great property.

We spent 4 lovely days in this original property Communication with Maggie was excellent and she was a discreetly available when we needed her. The location itself is stunning and this quirky property was a pleasure to stay in. Its proximity to the A49, makes for easy trips out. Church Stretton and Leominster were particular favourites.
