The Warm Hearth | 15 Acre Estate-3 Hot tubs-3 Homes-Woodland & Rolling Views
Welcome to The Warm Hearth Estate, a picture-perfect countryside retreat set on 15 acres of rolling Herefordshire fields. This lovingly restored 18th-century estate blends rustic charm with modern comfort, offering three unique homes — The Barn, The Stables, and The Hayloft. Enjoy exclusive access to three hot tubs, and wander through our magical wooded area adorned with fairy-lit oak trees and glowing pontoon lights inviting you to dine, laugh, and linger late into the evening. Unforgettable memories.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the calm of the countryside wrap around you. Wander through wildflower meadows, relax under the fairy-lit oak trees, or gather around the crackling firepit as the stars sparkle above. Within our enchanted wooded area, you’ll discover a cosy BBQ hut with ample seating for all numbers of guests.
The estate offers exclusive access to three charming homes — The Barn, The Stables, and The Hayloft — each beautifully restored with its own unique character and warmth. Across the property, you’ll also find three luxurious hot tubs, perfect for unwinding with a glass of wine as the countryside stretches endlessly before you.
Inside, cosy textures, vintage details, and warm tones create spaces that feel both luxurious and homely. Curl up beside the hearth after a countryside walk, unwind in deep bathtubs, or sink into plush bedding for a perfect night’s sleep.
