WELCOME TO THE BURNETT COTTAGES

Tranquil, idyllic barn conversions in rural England  

The Burnett Farmhouse is a former farm, set in the beautiful rolling countryside of South Herefordshire, with far reaching views over the quiet valley of Orcop towards Garway Hill. In tranquil farmland away from the main roads, these renovated barn and farm buildings provide an ideal base for exploring areas of outstanding natural beauty including the Wye Valley, Forest of Dean, Brecon Beacons and the Malvern Hills.

The cottages are within 20 minutes drive of Hereford, Ross-on-Wye and the M50 motorway. Also within easy reach are Hay-on-Wye, Monmouth, Symonds Yat, Malvern, Abergavenny, Cheltenham, Cardiff, Chepstow, The Brecon Beacons, Wales and Worcester with numerous places to visit including the castles of The Marches, Offa's Dyke path, Tintern Abbey, The Wye Valley, the Black and White villages, gardens to explore, antique shops and many more places of interest.

We have three self-catering cottages, sympathetically restored with oak beams and antique style furniture, yet providing high standards of comfort with fitted carpets, central heating and modern kitchen appliances.
