“We had a lovely week in the Cider House, where we found everything we needed for our stay.”

The surrounding countryside is gorgeous with plenty of places to explore. The local pub, the Stockton Cross was very welcoming with some good banter with the locals and staff. The Sunday dinner was a particular highlight. The welcome pack was excellent and very welcome indeed.

“We have had a lovely week relaxing in a great location.”

Easy to find and accessible to lots of nearby places. Trudie greeted us when we arrived and explained about different things. After that we knew if we needed anything where to go but were left to enjoy our holiday which was just great. Having two en-suite bathrooms made life very easy. Yes the second bedroom sink isn’t huge but it all worked for us. Plenty of storage space too. The kitchen was well equipped and the cooker worked well. It was also lovely and warm. The only thing we felt was the beds were very hard for us both. I know it’s so difficult to please everyone but I found sleeping quite difficult I think because I am used to the more modern mattress that seemed to suit most people not the sprung sort. That was the only thing I would change. Maybe it’s something to consider even if only one bedroom could be changed. Thank you so much for a lovely holiday. We hope to return again soon.

“We couldn't have asked for a better holiday cottage!”

Beautiful location, lovely and clean, very well equipped and completely dog friendly. Super happy with the large, enclosed garden, raised sink to wash muddy paws was just perfect and a boot room to dry off in. Honestly the best cottage we've stayed in. Had some lovely long walks straight from the cottage and came home completely relaxed. Wouldn't hesitate to book again

“We found the Cider House a lovely holiday destination in a beautiful setting.”

The actual cottage provided everything we expected from the listing. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all the equipment we needed. The only slight niggle was that the cleaning was not quite as good as it might have been - a little more attention to dusting in the corners would have been good.

“The Cider House is set in a beautiful location and is a working farm, the Owners are friendly and are close by if you need advice or help.”

It was lovely to see their two dogs Jax and Lily, our dog would look for them on return from our day trips. The property is well set up as home from home with utensils, tea, coffee, milk and sponge, tea towel. We visited Ludlow, Leominster, Ledbury, everywhere was very dog friendly so it was a pleasure to take our Dog everywhere with us. She had a brilliant time, the garden is big and enclosed so she could wonder freely under our watchful eyes. She loved to say Hello to the Owners dogs. It was tranquil and relaxing which is just what we were looking for, a working farm so owners are friendly and around but let you get on with your time. Lovely property, lovely break and all 5 of us (including the dog) had a lovely time away. We would love to return in the future.

“A lovely place to stay and explore Herefordshire.”

We looked for info on recommendations to eat but didn’t see anything. We chose an Indian who delivered called jalabad, it was recommendable . This is just a positive feedback. And maybe a thought. Your place is beautiful and we loved the enclosed garden and views and enjoyed the farm life. Highly recommended for pet stays or family,The beds were so comfortable large and in complete darkness. It was bliss

“The property is lovely and comfortable.”

The hosts are very friendly and welcoming. The countryside is fabulous. It is really quiet, peaceful and relaxing. We really enjoyed the holiday. There are a couple of things that could be improved, however. Firstly, the cider vat looks great on the photos, but they are about 10 years old. Currently it is falling apart and mouldy. We could not sit in it. It would be better to get rid of it and put in some easy seating so you can sit looking over the sheep in the field. Particularly since that is the only view from the outside space. I do think the outside photos should be updated. I will put some on Google, as I can't put any on here. Things are rather more shabby now. For the sake of older and less agile visitors, a rail on at least one side of the outside steps would be helpful. Also non-slip mats and rails would be great in the showers. My mum was quite nervous, so had to buy a mat. The sink in the smaller en suite is so small that you can hardly clean your teeth. The mirror standing out over an inch doesn't help. Maybe something could be done. Also the beds were comfortable, but could do with mattress toppers as I could feel the springs. The smaller bedroom could also use more coat hooks or rails, as there was nowhere to hang dressing gowns or a second towel, as the towel rail isn't big enough. Please be advised to bring dish cloths and extra tea towels. Bring everything you need to cook because the only thing there is a table salt and pepper shaker. And if you want to use the dishwasher or washing machine, bring your own detergent. I always think that hosts should stay at their property for a night or two as if they were guests, bringing suitcases and cooking. That way they would see exactly what is needed. While these hosts try really hard, it would be good for them to try this, sleeping in the smaller room particularly. Overall this is a lovely property and we really enjoyed our stay. These things would just make it even better.

- Jennifer, June 2024

Hi Jennifer, I’m pleased to hear you all had an overall lovely stay with us. But I am sorry to hear you were not completely satisfied with your stay and what the property had to offer. Please note this is a self catering property therefore, we do not offer everything you require to aid your cooking we do however offer some basics such as, salt, pepper, tea, coffee, milk, sugar, washing up liquid, hand wash, a toilet roll in each toilet and a washing up sponge all of which is offered as a gesture to get your holiday underway. Apologies this did not meet your expectations. We have had some very good comments about the beds and how comfortable they are but I fully appreciate this is down to personal preference. I agree the Cider Barrel in the garden is not in the best condition at this time, it has been extremely difficult to maintain it with all the wet weather, the rain does drive in and wet the interior but, throughout the summer it is much more useable and the table and chairs on the patio can be used with the cushions and parasol provided. The sink in the smaller bathroom is a space saving sink to allow as much space as possible, again apologies this was not ideal for yourselves but, the space available determines the size sink we can offer. I appreciate you would have preferred slip mats or handrails but the property description doesn't advise these are offered. Thank you for offering your comments, it’s very useful to hear suggestions from our guests perspectives. Property Owner

Tina May 2024

“We really look forward to visiting Cider House and are never disappointed.”

The hosts are very attentive and leave you alone to enjoy your stay but are there if you need them. We definitely recommend Cider House to those that are looking for a peaceful relaxing break. We look forward to our next visit next year.

Suzanne April 2024

“We have stayed at Cider House several times to visit family in the area.”

The cottage is warm, comfortable and very well appointed. Lovely welcome pack. The owners are on hand to help with any issues that might arise during your stay and were really great when a member of our party was unwell. Lots to do and see in the area and the farm has some lovely footpaths. Depending when you visit there might be orphan lambs to pet and the ducks love to be fed.

- Suzanne, April 2024
Claire March 2024

“A lovely cosy cottage.”

Great layout, the ‘boot room’ was ideal for keeping muddy shores and dogs in. Plenty of space for the four of us. Very comfortable beds and very clean. Great to have an enclosed garden that our two dogs could run around in. We enjoyed our stay immensely, loved seeing the lambs and other residents. Would love to come back in the summer when its dryer.

- Claire, March 2024
Steven March 2024

“Lovely cottages and friendly hosts.”

Sadly the weather meant that we did not spend any time with animals but hopefully they will all survive this rather wet spring! Thanks again for the kind welcome pack and the eggs which were vey much appreciated.

- Steven, March 2024
Judy March 2024

“A welcome basket and milk and tea/coffee/sugar waiting.”

It is a working farm. Great base to travel around. It was raining when we stayed but always came back to a warm cottage. Facilities in the property great. Made to feel very welcome. Maybe need a handrail on both set of the steps outside( we were both having own mobility problems).

- Judy, March 2024
Alison February 2024

“The property was perfect.”

Very clean and comfortable. It was warm and there are some great views. The driveway might prove tricky for some, but we were ok with it, as we had a 4 x 4. We appreciated the assistance given with regard to the parking of our trailer. It is clearly a great place for dogs, and it was lovely to meet the owners own dogs. Overall a very positive experience.

- Alison, February 2024
Sue February 2024

“The Cider House is a fantastic property.”

Sue-ellen December 2023

“This is a great property and perfect for relaxing and being in the middle of no where yet still being close enough to towns to go and explore.”

The property is spacious and it’s a great benefit of having two bedrooms both with en-suites. Whilst we couldn’t make much use of the garden and patio it’s a great space and something which I would imagine is great for lighter/sunnier nights. The owners were lovely and very friendly.

- Sue-ellen, December 2023
Paul December 2023

“We stayed for three weeks leading up to New Year.”

Rosemary November 2023

“The Cider House is a beautiful property, out in the country where is was peaceful, with lovely views.”

It was clean, cosy and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds comfortable and the cottage warm. Trudi, the host, met us when we arrived and was there if we needed anything. We would certainly recommend the cottage.

- Rosemary, November 2023
Lynn November 2023

“A lovely comfortable and homely cottage with very pleasant owners who acted immediately on two minor problems.”

It is a large property that would be suitable for two couples. We enjoyed our stay in The Cider House and this property is good for any time of the year.

- Carol, July 2023
Cheryl July 2023

“The Cider House was beautiful with lots of character.”

It was comfortable and provided everything we could have needed . We had a welcome pack of fresh eggs bacon sausage and biscuits plus milk tea coffee and sugar. The beds were comfortable and both had great en suite bathrooms. There were hens and ducks who enjoyed the peas we fed them and two very friendly dogs. The garden was enclosed and safe for those with dogs or young children to consider. The only very small criticism would be the drive way as it is bumpy and would probably benefit from new gravel to even it out. Having said that it is a farm so to be expected. Dominic and Trudie were friendly and available but not intrusive. We would definitely recommend The Cider House without hesitation. We will be back I'm sure

- Cheryl, July 2023
Jennie June 2023

“What a beautiful place, comfy, clean and Trudie and family are so nice, lovely breakfast treat when arrived, peaceful with plenty of things close by.”

Barbara June 2023

“Excellent property.”

Spacious, clean, well equipped, comfy beds. Wonderful welcome pack of sausages, bacon and duck eggs. Thank you Trudie. I do think that a safety mat in the showers would be good. Wet floor slippery.

Jill May 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable house with its great location.”

“The owners of The Cider House Trudi and Dominic are lovely hosts and could not have done more to help during our stay.”

The cottage is lovely and set in a very peaceful setting. The garden area is extremely safe and very dog friendly. Perfectly situated to visit the areas of Herefordshire, Shropshire and Worcestershire. Definitely worth a visit. Perfect for 4 people as 2 en-suite double or twin bedrooms.

- Ian, May 2023

The cottage was well furnished and it definitely was a home from home. Trudi & her husband were very nice people, and what was really good about the holiday was it was on a farm and we were allowed to feed the pigs

Vivienne July 2022

“The cottage was comfortable, well equipped, the welcome pack was well received, thank you.”

The location on a small working farm was perfect, yet so handy for all the places we wished to visit. The owners, Trudi and Dominic were welcoming, very helpful and friendly. This was our first holiday for 3 years, and we found everything was delightful. It all felt like home. To sum up, it was perfect.

- Vivienne, July 2022

Maria June 2022

“We arrived at The Cider House after a long drive and was pleasantly surprised with the location of the property and the well stocked house which had everything for your basic needs.”

The welcome breakfast basket was very appreciated and filled with the farms local produce. A really warm and welcoming touch by our hosts who greeted us as we parked up as well as their two beautiful 10 month old collies. Alas our 8 yr old husky was not up for playing with them and preferred to laze away in the perfectly lawned and enclosed gardens. Once Trudie and Dominique had informed us of the farms workings and the nearby walks we were then left to enjoy our holiday but always on hand if anything was needed. As the weather for the week was very hot it was a relief to discover that the house kept relatively cool inside. It was nice to enjoy alfresco dining on the patio area as well. This is a working farm with sheep, stabled horses and farm machinery but noise levels were kept to a minimum and although a building extension was going on, again, the owners were very mindful of keeping noise to a minimum. The super king size bed was extremely comfortable and we slept really well all throughout our stay. The location was a good base to visit surrounding areas near and afar. We visited Tewksbury Abbey, shopped at Hereford with its majestic Cathedral and enjoyed the long walks around Symmonds Yat and Croft Castle Parklands. Broadway and Bourton on the Water are our favourite haunts for cream teas and gift shopping. We certainly recommend Cider House and are looking to return next year. A big thank you to Trudie and Dominique who couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable and relaxing. We wish them all the best in what seems to be a relatively new venture.

- Maria, June 2022
Janice June 2022

“Very nice cottage.”

Well presented and very comfortable for two, three or four. Only adverse comment is that we found the broadband a bit intermittent which made watching the TV on catch up frustrating. Otherwise excellent for a week or two away from home.

- Andrew, May 2022
David April 2022

“We have had many good holiday lets in the past but this one is most definitely the best!”

Can highly recommend for comfort, location, cleanliness and the friendliness of the owners. We had to tear ourselves away at the end of the holiday! We will return! The animals were an added bonus, as was the little basket of goodies on our arrival. It is situated in a lovely area so plenty to explore, and some nice places to eat a short drive away. a very big thank you to Trudie, Dominic.....and the very entertaining lambs!!

- David, April 2022
Martin April 2022

- Martin, April 2022
Suzanne March 2022

“We had a great time at the Cider Press.”

We were greeted by the owner and a lamb being born in the field opposite the cottage - a great way to start our holiday. There was a delicious welcome hamper in the cottage. The cottage was very well equipped, comfortable and warm. There was a list of local pubs, information about the farm and that the ducks like peas so we had to buy some to feed them and the owners were on hand to help out with anything we needed. Very relaxing stay in a beautiful location. We walked around the farm following footpaths, visited Berrington Hall and Croft Castle and ate at The Fountain in Tenbury Wells. The great weather helped and we have booked to go back as it was so lovely.

- Suzanne, March 2022
Paul March 2022

“The cottage is very spacious and equipped to a high standard.”

The location is peaceful and we all enjoyed a lovely stay.Would highly recommend this property for those who are looking for peace and quite but within easy reach of many tourist places.The owners were on hand to resolve any issues if there had been any and gave friendly and helpful advice on the local area.

- Paul, March 2022

“Wonderful quiet and relaxing stay.”

Cottage has everything you might need and more. Utility room was a godsend after long muddy walks with dog, we could towel him dry and then wash towels. The garden, patio and parking areas are substantial, for a holiday cottage and dog secure. The owners were always friendly and happy to help. We really enjoyed our relaxing holiday and will be back again soon.

Cherrill October 2021

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Cider House and have already booked to return next year.”

The cottage is in a wonderful, peaceful location, but also central to being able to easily explore the local surroundings plus local walks. The cottage is warm, cosy and well stocked with everything needed for a very comfortable stay. The enclosed garden is spacious and ideal for a dog to run around in. We loved seeing the animals on the farm, especially at feeding time. Trudie and Dominic are the perfect hosts with the excellent array of ‘goodies’ left for our arrival being much appreciated.

- Cherrill, October 2021
Rebecca October 2021

Trudie was a very attentive host. The heating broke during our stay and we were very quickly provided with heaters. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We hope to visit again!

“This accommodation provides ample room for four adults and is beautifully furnished.”

It’s centrally located for exploring the counties of Herefordshire, Shropshire and Worcestershire. Located on a farm in a lovely rural spot, it’s also only about three miles / a ten minute drive into Leominster, where there are plenty of shops etc. I had a very enjoyable week staying here and the hosts are very welcoming and around if needed.

- Emma, August 2021
Rachel August 2021

“The mattresses need replacing as so uncomfortable which was a shame.”

No bath which was a shame, two showers installed but really needs a bath or a hot tub to be installed. The above really would make the accommodation so much more comfortable.

- Rachel, August 2021

About the location

LEOMINSTER

Hereford 12 miles; Ludlow 12 miles.

Leominster is located in the heart of the beautiful border countryside, where England and Wales nudge each other along Offa’s Dyke. Dating back to the 7th Century, the town of Leominster possesses some fine examples of architecture such as the Priory Church, along with a wide variety of shops, cafes and pubs, and is the ideal place in which to spend a lazy afternoon strolling around in pleasant surroundings. Nearby is the smaller market town of Tenbury Wells situated on the banks of the River Teme. Dating back to the Iron Age and said to have been called 'my little town in the orchard' by Queen Victoria, Tenbury Wells boasts a unique 18th century bridge built by Thomas Telford, the magnificent Pump Rooms, which housed baths where local mineral water was available, and many other listed buildings dating back to the 17th century.
