What could be more romantic than a stay in a converted Oast House with free use of tandem....
Kiln Cottage
Light and airy, this former hop drying kiln makes a wonderful escape for two.
Converted in an upside down style, it has a spacious double bedroom on the ground floor with adjacent newly refurbished bathroom with walk-in shower. Upstairs, you’ll find the bright open plan living area and fully-equipped kitchen has high ceilings and pitched roof windows all round.
Outside, there’s a private, courtyard patio that is perfect for al fresco lunches and evening sundowners on sunny days.
Please note that Kiln is our only pet-free cottage.

Fabulous stay in a wonderful cottage. Here for Heather's birthday, The Malvern Show and walking (and the cider). We'd love to come back.

We have really enjoyed our stay at the Kiln. It has been a welcome respite from 'the tourist trail', such a peaceful place to return to in the evenings. We have loved exploring beautiful Herefordshire and Ledbury in particular.

Thank you so much for your hospitality and readiness to help. It has been a lovely stay here at the Kiln. I have enjoyed a lot going for walks, birdwatching and immersing myself in the magic of Herefordshire.

We have had a lovely few days at the Kiln. An ideal base - we managed to cram in mountain biking and sightseeing into a long weekend. We didn't realise how beautiful Herefordshire is! We hope it won't be too long before we return.

The local scenery is absolutely beautiful and it's a brilliant area to explore. Would recommend walking to Woolhope and doing the Weston's Cider Tour. Fantastic place to relax and we would love to come back.

We really enjoyed our first stay at the Kiln. Th place is so beautiful and relaxing. We came to get away from busy London life and now we don't want to go back

Simply charming accommodation and location for my getting-away-from-it-all break. The weather made cycling around the Malverns and Wye Valley really special. Comfortable, peaceful accommodation put the cherry on the top. No hotel or B&B would have come close this weekend.
