Most relaxing holiday I have had in years, it's just a joy to sit in the peace and quiet of the garden and watch the many birds, over twenty species in one week. I didn't want to go home.

The cottage was a lovely base for our holiday and contained everything we needed for a relaxing week
The cottage was a lovely base for our holiday and contained everything we needed for a relaxing week away. The location was so quiet & peaceful - it was a real joy to sit back and just listen to the sound of nature. This enhanced our time of rest and relaxation greatly. There’s plenty to do in the local area (and a little further afield) - we seemed to fit so much in to one week while still returning home from our holiday feeling refreshed. Overall, a truly lovely break which was very much enhanced by our stay in The Old Post Office.

Beautiful Bungalow set in a very quiet hamlet.
Beautiful Bungalow set in a very quiet hamlet. It provided everything you required to make your holiday memorable, the welcome pack was greatly appreciated. The wildlife that visits the garden ranged from a lesser spotted woodpecker and many numerous species of birds. The local fox paid a visit to the garden also. My wife and I would highly recommend the Old Post Office to our family and friends without hesitation. The hosts where very welcoming and helpful.Thank you.
Lovely property for us and 2 dogs, great wrap around garden for the dogs, though we used tethers as the hedges are low in parts. Made full use of the open fire in the lounge and Raburn in the kitchen to heat the property through. Remote but with tescos and Hereford on the door step. Visited hay and Hereford on our weekend break. Will be booking again in warmer weather.
