Thatch Close Farm

Edward was the perfect host, always there to answer our questions. Beautiful rural location with amazing views. The cottage was nice and the welcome pack was gratefully received. Power shower was fab and the bed was amazing!

Was looked after very well by the hosts and can’t fault the property. Had a great stay with two kids in tow. Tv etc to keep them entertained but didn’t need it as the weather was lovely and there’s plenty nearby for the kids to enjoy. Comfortable rooms and all the stuff you might ever need in the kitchen and bathroom - some really useful equipment in the kitchen which made a real difference to our stay. Lovely gardens too, nice views over the hills for sundowners. Worth noting that, although we don’t need the facilities, these cottages are fully kitted out for wheelchair users, even hight adjustable kitchen worktops!

We loved staying at Bramble’s Barn and can’t think of any way it could have been better. It is a beautiful conversion, with tasteful decor, enormous attention to detail and no expense spared - for example, it has underfloor heating and even a built-in mounted steamer in the kitchen. It feels so spacious - with incredible vaulted ceilings upstairs, but somehow it also felt warm and cosy. The 2 bedrooms each have immaculate en suites, with very powerful showers. Lots of nice touches like fresh Spring flowers in a vase. The whole place was meticulously clean. When we arrived there was a welcome basket which included ground coffee (the best we have ever tasted), tea, biscuits, milk, and delicious homemade flapjacks. Then, the lovely Edward arrived carrying a warm loaf of home made bread! Edward couldn’t have been kinder. He is a wealth of interesting facts and stories about the farm and the local area. He also dropped in on us on the day there was snowfall, to check we were ok. The gardens/outside area is great - beautiful views over the Wye Valley countryside -lots of space to sit down and roam around. Our dog loved it - the whole property is very dog-friendly. We had dreadful weather for our 3 days unfortunately. However, we still got to see some beautiful places around Bramble’s Barn - including Symonds Yat, Tintern Abbey, Devil’s Pulpit, Ross-on-Wye (we fully recommend No 3 restaurant), Goytre Wharf. Overall a great stay and we couldn’t recommend Bramble’s Barn more.
