The Experience

There’s a wonderfully secluded feel as you come down the long drive to your green escape in pretty grounds with colourful planting, ponds and wildflower meadows.

You have this three-roomed cob house to yourself and one of the great things about kind owners living next door is breakfast… delivered to the sitting room or veranda. Go continental or full English – both star local produce – and Aga porridge is on the menu too.

Patient watchers may see roe deer, badgers, perhaps a hare. Walkers can head straight out of the gate and onto the 154-mile Herefordshire Trail; or simply stroll to one of the local pubs for lunch. There’s the river Wye and Hay’s bookshops, and more, to visit. When owls are hooting you can sneak to the shepherd’s hut with a fire pit on the decking and train the telescope on dark night skies.

Thank you so much for this glorious spot - so comfortable, great breakfasts, charming birdsong & great evenings around the fire pit under a starlit sky listening to owls hooting and woodpeckers thrumming. Thank you.

This place is phenomenal! It's hard to find words to explain how reviving it is. After two nights we feel totally refreshed. Your hospitality is exceptional and The Cob is the most wonderful place we have ever stayed. Thank you for looking after us so beautifully.

You arrive to birdsong and often kites sweeping overhead; the only other property visible is your wildlife-friendly hosts’. The Herefordshire Trail runs adjacent to the house; The Rhydspence pub is 1.5 miles away, and the toll bridge café/bar located on the River Wye is a similar distance. Bookish Hay with its range of other shops and eateries, is five miles; Hereford station is 18.

Local points of interest from Simon & Lynn Woodward

  • Only ten minutes away, Hay-on-Wye, our nearest town famous for it’s bookshops and festival has a lot more to offer; independent shops, Galleries, and antique shops aplenty. There is a market every Thursday with local produce and crafts on sale.
  • For a great day out, drive or cycle The Black and White Village Trail, a forty mile circular route through the peaceful Herefordshire countryside, stopping off for beautiful views, tea shops, churches, gardens and more.
  • A great base for walking, we are situated on The Herefordshire Trail, a 150 mile loop of Herefordshire, and around a mile from Offa’s Dyke Path. The Brecon Beacons an Black Mountains are only a short drive away.
  • The towns of Leominster and Brecon and the City of Hereford are within half an hour’s drive.
  • We love Talgarth Mill, a fully restored 18th century flour mill powered by the River Ellywe. Take a tour, then enjoy lunch in The Baker’s Table Cafe and wander through the gardens.
  • Kington Golf Club, the highest in England with it’s panoramic views is only five miles away.

Introducing

Simon & Lynn Woodward

The Woodwards’ dream of renovating a property for guests has taken great shape at The Cob. They moved here in 2019, having sold their bathroom design business in Cheshire, and their passion for the project and for sharing the results makes them ideal hosts. They’re re-wilding parts of the surrounding land, are just across the way if you need anything and happy to leave you in peace if you don’t.
