“The Forge is a delightful place to stay with lovely hosts Jane and Dean.”

Clean and comfy with all you need. We would hope to return and explore area further as our trip was cut short due to health issues.

“We really enjoyed our stay at The Forge.”

We had everything we needed and it was a very cosy cottage to relax in after a day's walking or sight-seeing. Also, the cottage is in a good position, between Hereford and Ledbury, for visiting Herefordshire.

Jane and Dean are really lovely people. We would absolutely go back there again. So long as you have a car, everything is within a short distance. If you are a history fan you couldn't be placed better for local interests. Everything we could need was here for us. Try it! You'll love it. We did. Juliet and Mark Bartlett

“This amazing cottage was exactly as depicted in pictures.”

In addition, I did not expect it but the garden behind the house is not used by the owners and is very secluded and very nice place to relax, meditate or have an exercise. There is plenty of nice walks nearby and places to visit. I will be definitely coming back to this charming cottage and very hospitable owners.

The kitchen/diner is well-equipped and has a dining table for two guests, so you can rustle up a quick lunch and sit down with your loved one to plan a day of exploring.

The sitting room is best for kicking back and relaxing as it has a plush sofa where you can curl up with a good book.
