  This is an absolutely amazing house!

  Everything is done so well and each room is a delight. It is so spacious and comfortable. It was completely clean and everything was well maintained. Some reviews have mentioned the steep walk down to Ironbridge and it is true that there is a very definite incline...it didn't trouble us at all and we have stayed in this area before so knew what to expect. It may not be ideal for someone less mobile but there are very few places in Ironbridge that have level access. The upside of the slope is the fantastic views of the gorge from every window of the house. You can see clearly down to the bridge and everything was green and beautiful - the views made the house even more special. Parking is also always a bit of a challenge in the narrow streets around Ironbridge - we took a small car and the garage at the house worked perfectly for us, but there would have been on street parking not too far away every time anyway. All in all, we loved this house and I was sorry when it was time to leave. Next time we are back in the area, it will definitely be my first choice of places to stay.

  I will begin by saying we didn't want to leave Palace Farmhouse, it was amazing!

  such a beautifully well designed and thought out property down to the smallest of details, the old beams throughout and having the kitchen / living room and dining area upstairs was a genius idea as you get the most beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. At night all you can hear is nature its truly wondaful. The accommodation was luxurious nice soft duvets an pillows that you sank into and didn't want to leave in the morning, each room has its own en-suite bathroom which the kids were very excited about :) I love the copper finishes in the main kitchen and the tap to make a cuppa T was great this saves energy and time. The animals on the farm were a firm favourite of the whole family and we enjoyed some fresh duck eggs for breakfast on one of the days (yum yum) We were warmly welcomed by the owners of the property and they were always happy to help or answer any questions we had. By the time we next visit Palace Farm the games room should be up and running which will be great! thank you so much for a lovely relaxing stay at your farm, The Goater family

  The property was fabulous and is in a fantastic location.

  Exactly what we were looking for. Communication from the host was excellent and he sent us a really useful information pack via email in advance, which was much appreciated. There were also some very kind supplies provided on arrivals which was very kind and a lovely thing to do. As I say the stay was really great and the only part that caused us concern was the access to one side in the loft bedroom between the narrow stair access. The loft room.is split in two and the left hand side (when assending the stairs) of the loft bedroom (1 single bed to each side which was split by the staircase) led straight into the void of the top of the staircase and even although there was a stairgate provided, due to the layout it could be used slightly further down the stairs. This did still leave the real possibility that the children could drop down a few steps into the top of the narrow stairwell. We improvised by moving the bedside cabinet to block of the drop area and put the eldest (5 year old) of the two children into the bed located in that side of the loft room.

  Palace Farmhouse is outstanding!

  We found Palace Farmhouse to be a very comfortable and well-appointed "upside down" property which allows visitors to enjoy beautiful views of the Herefordshire countryside from the living areas. Set in a quiet location, a bonus for dog owners is that it not only accepts dogs but actively welcomes them! Our three West Highland White Terriers had great fun watching the horses, pigs and fowl from the upstairs windows, and we had peace of mind knowing that when we let them outside, it was to a safe and secure enclosed garden. It was only myself, my husband and our dogs staying in the Farmhouse, but there were two ensuite king-size double bedrooms and a lovely, attached suite of rooms with a double bedroom, bathroom and open plan kitchen sitting room available, making it perfect for holidaying with friends and family. We have no hesitation in recommending the Palace Farmhouse for anyone who wants to visit Hereford and the Welsh Marches.

  This is a fabulous property in an amazing location and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

  The property is well equipped and comfortable as well as cosy. The furniture in the lounge is different to that in the photographs but, in my opinion, it is more cosy now. When we stayed it was decorated for Christmas and the christmas tree was stunning. Although parking and manoeuvring can be tricky and the road is steep, this is clearly explained in the listing so you are aware of what to expect. We would have found cooker instructions useful but there didn't seem to be any. Also, one of the glass cooking dishes was badly chipped on the handle and one of our party received a bad cut. In addition, one of the stair handrails is loose and needs repairing. We do appreciate that owners are not always made aware of such issues and are usually quick to respond and address them. Having said all that, we would definitely still recommend the property and stay again as it is really lovely and there's lots to see and do in the area.
