A great place to stay

We enjoyed staying at the cottage in Luston. There was lots of room for us and our two friends and we enjoyed having a bathroom each. Our bedroom was spacious and the bed comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and there was room for four of us to sit at the dining table. There are lots of places to visit e.g castles and manor houses which are just a short drive away. Our hosts Amy and James made us feel welcome.

Beautiful cottage and location with wonderful hosts

Our stay was absolutely brilliant. We couldn't have asked for more in terms of the thoughtful touches (including a delicious bottle of fresh apple juice from the orchard which was much appreciated and enjoyed) - and the cottage is immaculate, very well equipped and peaceful. Thank you so much, Amy (and your lovely family) for a perfect few days. We will definitely come back! Ursula and Tim Tavender

The Folly

Very spacious and comfortable high quality property. Window latches were rather wonky and it was annoying not being able to open 2 of the windows in the front bedroom. We appreciated being able to turn the cat in the owner's entrance as there was little room for manoevre at the property. Excellent provision of maps and local books. VG centrr.

Lovely Peaceful Stay

I stayed at the cottage with my husband and daughter as she is looking to buy a property in the area. Our host Amy couldn’t have been more helpful. She gave us lots of information on the area and all her recommendations for food were spot on. We had the most comfortable stay and our beds were very comfortable. The living area was great and spacious and the kitchen had all we needed. We’d definitely love to go back and stay again.

Fantastic property

I cannot recommend this property high enough. The actual accommodation was spotlessly clean and was fully equipped with good quality items providing everything you could possibly need. Very comfortable beds with fine cotton bedding and large fluffy towels were provided. The information sent prior to our visit was extremely comprehensive and Amy, our host, was friendly and welcoming. The addition of a log burner and Christmas tree was an added plus.

Great place to stay

Amy and James have created a great holiday home. Everything you need on holiday is provided, very well equipped home. There are two lovely bedrooms with en-suites. Very comfy beds and plenty of drawer and hanging space. We’ve had a great couple of weeks (with a gap in the middle). Lots to see in the area, both Ludlow and Leominster are interesting market towns to visit. Amy sends plenty of information beforehand so you can go well prepared. Thank you for a lovely holiday and we will be back.

Home from home!

This is the best holiday home we have ever stayed in. Beautifully decorated and furnished and in a wonderful rural setting. Our host, Amy,responded immediately with a few queries we had at the beginning of our stay. The Folly is in an ideal location to explore the surrounding area.

Great location and so comfortable

The Folly has been beautifully converted and Amy and James have thought about everything you need for a comfortable stay. Great location for exploring, We walked from the house to Croft castle which was well worth a look including a beautiful walled garden. Ludlow nearby is a lovely town to explore. We enjoyed meeting the hens in your very pretty back garden! We Hope to come back for longer next time.

Perfect

From the minute we arrived and saw the property we knew that we had booked the right place for us. Amy and James welcomed us to their beautiful cottage. Absolutely wonderful. Sotlessly clean with everthin that we needed for our short stay. A very comfortable house with a lovely garden. Cannot fault it. We have stayed in lots of self catering cottages and apartments and this is probably ' number 1'. Well done Amy and James. We do intend returning and staying longer next time.

Great property

The property is exactly as described and we very much enjoyed our stay. Communication with the owner was great and we were given a warm welcome on arrival. Property was clean with everything in very good condition. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you might need.

Tranquility incarnate

The Folly is a beautifully situated cottage, excellently appointed and comfortably furnished home from home - we wanted for nothing during our stay. The garden (and adjoining orchard) are lovely. The property owners are genuinely thoughtful and considerate hosts who were an absolute pleasure to deal with. We will not hesitate t stay there again when next visiting the area.

Peaceful & Comfortable

A charming cottage, meeting all the needs of a quite weekend away. The beds, furnishings and utilities, including log burner, made for a great relaxing base to explore the area. Views from rear windows look over gardens and orchards. Sheep being herded past the front door will stay in our memories too!

Amy is a great host. She made us feel very welcome and provided lot of useful information about the local area, places to visit, recommendations for dining out. The cottage is delightful. Situated in beautiful surroundings it’s quiet, very comfortable and clean with good quality linen and towels, a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and great water pressure in the shower! We could happily live here!We’ve stayed in many holiday rentals and the Folly is up there with the best of them. We would happily stay here again.
