Drying House - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Located in a quiet courtyard off Ledbury's High Street, two-minutes' walk from the heart of Ledbury with its many coffee shops, cafes, independent shops and art galleries, the Drying House is a red-brick and timber, two-story holiday let, ideal for a family or two couples.

The interior of the Drying Barn is charming, with its bright yet calming bedrooms and spacious upper floor where guests can socialise across the open-plan dining-living area and kitchen or close the kitchen off if preferred. The super-king size Master Bedroom (can be converted to a twin on request) has an ensuite shower room, while the twin room has an adjacent bathroom with half-size bath and over-bath shower.

To the front of the Drying House is a large, gravelled parking area with decking and lots of floral garden pots. Car access is via Worcester Road, while guests can take a short public footpath from the parking area to emerge on the High Street close to the famous Feathers Hotel. Though there isn't a set outside seating area for the Drying House, please ask the caretakers if you would like to sit outside and they will do their best to accommodate you.Ground Floor
