Remote, relaxing stay in a beautiful area
We booked this remote spot to avoid fireworks for our dogs on 5th November and we weren't disappointed- didn't hear a sound. Lovely location, comfy barn with great views, never ending beautiful birds visiting the balcony to use the nut feeder and everything you could need for a short stay. Marilyn and Peter are warm, friendly hosts and even shared some farm eggs (which were very tasty!). Lots of lovely places to visit locally too. Would definitely recommend.

Peaceful getaway with spectacular views. Perfect location to explore the area. Spacious accommodation with lots of homely touches and spotlessly clean. Home owners were delightful and very happy to help with any enquiries but equally respectful of our privacy. Would definitely re visit.

Delightful stay in a beautiful location.
Lovely property in an outstandingly beautiful area. We didn't hear a car all week. Very clean, comfortable and well presented, with adequate equipment for a week long stay. The internet is not the best, but it's adequate for browsing and emails, but not for multiple users watching videos. Very remote, but only a ten minute car ride to Kington, which has all the shops you will need. Outside the property, you are close to the owners house, but you have complete privacy and use of the surrounding woods for short walks. There is a bird feeder on the balcony, which is constantly visited by all sorts of birds. The owners are very welcoming and give plenty of advice about the surrounding area, walks , places to visit and the best restaurants and cafes. We were reluctant to leave after our week in the cottage and we are very likely to return. Overall its a perfect getaway, peaceful and quiet.

Keeper's Cottage
A lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings. We had a fantastic week. The accommodation was great. The view from the balcony was sensational. Marilyn and Peter were perfect hosts and even jump started our car to get us back on the road at the end of our stay. The Huntington area is like a time capsule to a bygone age with little traffic; friendly people and an unbelievable pub - The Swan. We loved it all - thank you.

Well presented property in a beautiful location. It’s clean and tidy, with everything you should need for making you’re stay comfortable. It’s very peaceful, with abundant bird life that come to the feeder on the balcony. There is woodland on the property that you are free to explore. The hosts, Peter and Marilyn are so helpful and friendly. The nearby town of Kington is ideal for walking fans, so take you’re boots!

Keepers is so perfect! Location - wonderful spot, the views from keepers are beautiful and there are plenty of walks in the immediate area. Kington and Huntington are lovely. We travelled to go on walks and keepers in a great place to go towards Wales, Hay on Wye, Glousester etc. Accommodation - so clean, comfortable and has everything you could possibly need. Hosts - incredibly welcoming, especially their dog Griff! So helpful too :) Could have stayed forever!

Delightful cottage in the midst of beautiful countryside
We had a delightful three-night stay in this lovely cottage. It is simply but attractively and comfortably furnished, and we did not want for anything. It was great to meet Peter and Marilyn who, even before our stay began had been very helpful in answering our questions. They made us feel very welcome and at ease. The windows of the cottage give access to dramatic views and, because Keepers is on the side of a hill with trees below, we almost felt, when we were sitting in the main room, that we were in the tree-tops themselves. The kitchen is excellently equipped for a short stay and I was particularly impressed by the cast-iron pans (something one does not often encounter in an English holiday let). We spent an enjoyable day in Hay on Wye and had a delicious lunch at The Swan. Then the next day, on Peter's recommendation, we walked through stunning countryside to the pub at Gladestry, where we enjoyed another good lunch and then "walked it off" on the way home. Thoroughly recommend.
