Old Linceter is a cosy traditional farmer’s stone cottage built in the 1800s with original quarry tiles and wood burner in the sitting room. The property boasts stunning views of the Herefordshire landscape with rolling hills of patchwork green. It’s delightfully secluded and peaceful, with only the bleat and baa of the sheep and singing of the birds breaking the silence.

Enjoy an alfresco breakfast in the garden before heading out into the Brockhampton estate. Explore the estate’s peaceful woodland, open parkland and working farms before heading to the manor where, as a guest at the cottage, you can enjoy free entry.

A little further afield, the Malvern Hills AONB is within easy reach of the cottage. Ramble along one of the many walking routes, taking in the scenery and head over to nearby Worcester to re-fuel over lunch.
