Luxury living in a rural idyll

Close your eyes and imagine a luxury property in a glorious rural England setting. Now dream that that property has all the modern comforts of the 21st century and that it can sleep up to 48 people on an exclusive basis. What you are imagining is Old Mill Barns, situated in rural Herefordshire just five miles from the Welsh border. This really is a superb spot for you to gather with the gang – your family, friends or colleagues – to celebrate a special birthday, an anniversary, or just to spend some time together. In effect, there are three properties which we hire together for total exclusivity. Each property has spacious living areas with under-floor heating, wood burners and great dining space. Two properties have a TV room and a hot tub. You’ll love the spaciousness and luxury throughout with original artworks and stylish furnishings creating a lovely, relaxing ambience.

Guest reviews

A gorgeous holiday home with excellent attention to detail in terms of cleanliness and decor, with some really unique and quirky furniture and art items giving a nod to the farm origins. We hired the Old Mill Barns for a large group of extended family and had a wonderful weekend. Lots of great communal spaces to gather, as well as cosy snugs and great outdoor spaces for children. Would definitely recommend and visit again. Thank you!

Old Mill Barns was the perfect venue to celebrate my joint 40th birthday celebrations. From the initial enquiry right through to checking out, the staff were amazing; so friendly and helpful. The communication was brilliant, the staff always responded to any messages on the same day. Nothing was ever too much trouble. All I can say is wow, wow, wow!!!! I knew from the photos that they were going to be amazing but they were seriously on another level. So well equipped, so tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. There is nothing that hadn’t been thought of. The addition of the games rooms and hot tub were an added bonus and were thoroughly enjoyed by all of our guests. Everyone had a fab time and we are hoping to re-book next year. Not for any special occasion just because Old Mill Barns are truly amazing. If you are thinking of booking them, you must!! You will not be disappointed. A massive thank you.

A place for eating, relaxing and celebrating

This is the perfect place if you want to cater for yourselves and get together with a large group of family and friends! The Old Mill has a whopping 20m long kitchen, lovely white china and quality cutlery, electric and Aga ovens, hot trays and cabinets.

The Stables boasts an additional kitchen, so you can see that for those of you who enjoy cooking, preparing a scrumptious meal for everyone can be easy and fun.

But, if cooking’s not your thing, or you just want to relax and be looked after, we can put you in touch with our preferred cooks who can cater for your every whim or drop off meals by arrangement. Or, if the weather’s fine, why not barbecue? And if you’d rather head out for the evening, there are several fine places to eat less than ten minutes’ drive away.

Out and about

Old Mill Barns lie in a village that sits right on top of Offa’s Dyke so you can see that it is steeped in the history of this fascinating area on the Welsh/English border. Although now firmly English, at one time much of the area was Welsh-speaking. Spend a day in the cathedral city of Hereford, half an hour's drive away. The cathedral itself is worth the journey. Dating from 1079 it houses the famous Mappa Mundi, a medieval map of the world dating from the 13th century. While you’re there, why not visit the Cider Museum, or take a stroll along the banks of the River Wye? Or spend the day shopping or sipping coffee in one of the many cafes in the bustling High Town centre.

Away from the city, Herefordshire’s Golden Valley winds its way between the Black Mountains and the banks of the River Dore. Visit Hay-on-Wye or the village of Dorstone, or down to Peterchurch, Vowchurch and Abbey Dore to Ewyas Harold at the south of the Golden Valley. These historic villages, set in beautiful, untouched Herefordshire countryside, conjure up a time gone by in a way that can only be experienced by being there. Pictures, videos and books can never quite capture the magic and charm of the area. And the gently rolling landscape makes it an ideal place for walkers.

And for those of you who like something a bit more active, there is loads on offer: golf, fishing, canoeing, cycling, horse riding, clay pigeon shooting, Nordic walking, wild swimming and so much more.

Location

In the rural village of Lyonshall, with walks in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside available right from your doorstep. Local towns include Kington (3 miles away) and Leominster (12 miles).
