The Waiting Room, Stoke Edith Station, Hereford

Nestled within the rolling hills of Herefordshire and surrounded on all four sides by Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is the perfect place to enjoy the English rural idyll, with plenty of railway history thrown in! The accommodation is situated on the site of the original station building which was operational from 1861 - 1965, and has been rebuilt in the style of a typical Great Western Railway building of the Victorian/Edwardian era.

Dog friendly, but we stipulate a one dog maximum.

The space

This beautiful station building is divided into two self-contained holiday lets, The Waiting Room (this two bed property) and The Booking Office (a three bed property). For larger groups, both cottages can be booked to provide sleeping for 10 people.

Ground Floor
The main entrance is accessed via the sheltered "corridor" in the centre of the building, opening up into a small entrance lobby with concertina doors enclosing a utility area housing a washer/dryer. The lobby leads into a cosy living room, fully kitted out with electric fire, lounge furniture and dining table with comfortable seating for four. An exposed brick archway leads through to modern galley kitchen with country feel, comprising of a range of well stocked wall & base units, electric oven & hob, fridge/freezer, integrated dishwasher and a vast array of kitchen tools, pots, pans, glassware, crockery and more.

FIRST FLOOR
Up the stairs you will find a family bathroom with corner bath and electric shower over, a good size twin room with two single beds, built-in wardrobe, bedside tables, chest of drawers and a blanket/luggage box under Velux window. The master bedroom is a spacious double with king size bed, bedside tables, dressing table/drawers, built-in wardrobe, blanket box under the Velux window and access on through to the en-suite with WC and wash hand basin. The landing provides additional space for children to play or, if you can’t escape the office, this acts as a good spot to sit and work in peace using the vintage writing bureau.

EXTERIOR
Outside guests can enjoy a meal or a drink sitting out in front of the property, and there's ample outdoor space within the station yard, including a large lawn immediately opposite the cottages where guests can play garden games or simply read a book in a shaded spot under trees. This also makes for a great area to play with your K9 friend!
