Guests say
Orchard Cottage in Ledbury is highly praised for its cleanliness, picturesque location, and comfort. Guests appreciate the friendly hosts and the property's proximity to local amenities and nature walks. While some minor issues are mentioned, the overall sentiment is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.
The majority of guests have highlighted the cottage's cleanliness, describing it as 'spotlessly clean' and well-maintained. Only one complaint regarding cleanliness was noted, which seems to be an outlier.
Reviews frequently mention the property's lovely location, convenient for both town and countryside walks. The proximity to the town, railway station, and scenic views contribute to a high score, despite one mention of misleading advertising regarding the orchard access.
Guests find the cottage warm and comfortable, with a cosy atmosphere. Some concerns about the suitability for larger groups and the comfort of the bunk beds for older children slightly affect the score.
Facilities are generally well-received, with thoughtful touches appreciated. However, some guests noted the lack of a washing machine and issues with WiFi connectivity, which impacts the score.
Several reviews mention thoughtful gestures such as biscuits and milk on arrival, which guests found delightful. It should be noted that while these gifts are appreciated, they are not guaranteed for every stay.

Perfect little cottage with ample space and all that we needed for our short break was there. Setting is beautiful, and very peaceful. Close to many good walks and site seeing attractions. Would highly recommend.

It had everything we needed for a very comfortable and relaxing break. We enjoyed local walks and the ease of strolling into Ledbury and made full use of the local station by taking the train to Hereford, Worcester and Great Malvern for car-free days out.
