Dog-friendly Herefordshire
Full of natural beauty and rural charm, Herefordshire is a truly special place to visit. With stretches of farmlands, woodlands and rolling hills, you and your pooch can enjoy some of the most magnificent countryside walks - before you retreat to a cosy dog-friendly cottage or hotel tucked away in one of the many picturesque villages or towns.
- Bosbury, EnglandBuggati House, once a barn, but now a tastefully decorated, converted holiday house, boasts a spacious balcony from where you can enjoy the far reaching views whilst you soak up the sunshine. Walkers are sure to be inspired by the panorama, as there are plenty of walking opportunities right from the doorstep. The property is also pet friendly, so any four-legged guests won’t be disappointed by their surroundings either.
The upside-down design of this lovely barn conversion means that the open plan living/dining room/kitchen is on the first floor, giving you full advantage of the property’s outlook, with large windows on three sides. The comfortable sleeping quarters are on the ground floor, together with the bathroom.
Even keen walkers require some rest and relaxation, so spending your holiday in the grounds of a country house that benefits from use of a shared heated swimming pool (in summer), will be just what the doctor ordered. The owner of Buggati House is also happy to show off her “Gypsy Moth” aeroplane and vintage car for anyone who may be interested.
Conveniently situated between the Wye Valley and Malvern Hills, as well as the wide range of walking routes, there are plenty of visitor attractions for holidaymakers any time of year: including, Eastnor Castle, Newbridge Farm Park, the Three Counties Showground and Ledbury Poetry Festival. Here you are also within easy reach of the Cotswolds, where there are an array of quintessential villages with their quaint shops and cafes, to explore.
