This area offers a sought-after rural idyll and the property enjoys a high degree of peace and tranquillity, yet is well-placed for the local market towns of Ross, Ledbury and Monmouth, with the city of Hereford also only a short drive away. There are excellent road and rail commuter links to the rest of the country.

Extensive gardens lie to the north of the property, with lawned areas surrounded and interspersed with mature shrubs, trees, rose bushes and an abundance of spring flowers.

An attractive paved seating area to the front aspect provides fabulous easterly views and a place to enjoy the surroundings, perfect for al fresco dining.

A little-used vegetable patch with raised beds would benefit from some enthusiasm, but could easily be returned to productive use.
