The Throne Weobley, luxury Grade 2*-listed house in UK Village of the Year

Description

Featured in The Guardian's 'Fab 50 cool cottages and cabins to rent this summer', April 2016. Sleeps 13 or 6 with 35% discount 4 double, 1 triple and 2 single bedrooms + 4 bathrooms (1 en suite) Large enclosed garden 4 woodburning stoves Super master bedroom with four poster Big, light open plan kitchen and living space Table tennis, trampoline, badminton, table football Baby grand piano Great walks on doorstep and short walk to pub Dog friendly National Trust properties, Black Mountains, Mappa Mundi, Offa's Dyke, Hay on Wye The Throne is a beautiful Grade 2*-listed house in an award-winning black and white village in rolling English countryside. The owners have carefully added a huge open plan living area to the original medieval building to create a stunning and relaxed place to stay. The garden is enchanting with its large lawn, pretty patios and well tended flower beds. There's no better place to be, whether you want to enjoy a morning coffee, play badminton, bounce on the trampoline, read a book, light the barbecue, enjoy fabulous local cheese and a glass of Weobley beer or just lie on the grass and listen to the birds. A lot of guests never want to leave the premises (and that was before lockdown!) With 7 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and generous entertaining space, the Throne is dog friendly, ideal for family gatherings, friend reunions, and special celebrations. It's also sufficiently homely for a couple or small party to enjoy (there is a 35% discount for up to 6 people using 3 bedrooms). This outstanding Grade II* listed house has a fascinating history and a Royal connection from which it takes its name. Begun in 1478 and expanded in 16th century, it hosted Charles I for a night in 1645 during the English Civil War. He came fresh from relieving the siege of Hereford, a rare victory for the Royalists at that time. The original Tudor bedrooms, one of which the king slept in, and even older north wing are home to secret passages, original floorboards, glimpses of wattle and daub and other delightful features showing how the house has evolved over the centuries. A specially written guide encourages young (and old) explorers to follow the clues. We aim to make sure our prices are reasonable to give more people the opportunity to enjoy and appreciate this very special place. Weobley is the largest and best preserved of the classic black and white villages of Herefordshire. It's also a very friendly and vibrant village and The One Show's 'Village of the Year 2017'. It has a fine traditional English pub (the Sal'), three excellent places to eat (which also do takeaways), a butcher, delicatessen, wholefood emporium and well-stocked village shop. There are lovely circular walks straight from the house.
