Description from owner

Description

The Granary is a recently renovated stone barn on our smallholding on the edge of the historic village of Richards Castle, named after Richard Fitz Scrob’s castle, one of the few pre Norman castles in England.

The barn has retained all of its charm whilst offering a luxurious and welcoming stay in the beautiful countryside of the Herefordshire / Shropshire borders.Perfectly placed for exploring the area close to many national and local walking and cycle routes that criss cross the landscape including the Shropshire Way and the Six Castles Cycleway (including Richards Castle) as well as the picturesque black and white villages and market towns of Shropshire and Herefordshire.

On the first floor there is beamed, open-plan living space with oak floors and a cosy wood burner, a well-equipped kitchen/dining area leading out to a spacious balcony giving stunning views of rolling countryside. There is a table and chairs on the balcony, perfect for al fresco dining. On the ground floor there is a large bedroom with french doors out to the patio with views over the landscape.

Also on the ground floor there is a spacious shower room. Next to the barn is the converted piggery which now holds a utility area with areas for drying walking and cycling gear and secure bike storage.Outside the barn is a patio area, and the smallholding to explore!

We enjoy the 'good life' here growing and producing our own food and keep sheep, pigs, hens and a horse. All very friendly and very happy to accept the odd apple! Along with the cat and the dog they keep us amused and busy!
