About this cottage rental

The Retreat is the award winning luxury holiday annexe adjoining Wolferlow House, the former rectory, set in beautiful scenery on the Herefordshire / Worcestershire border.
The highlight is the exclusive use of a totally private 9m indoor heated swimming pool and a Finnish sauna - entirely to yourselves.
The Retreat comprises a luxurious double bedroom with en-suite shower featuring a king size bed and Chinese furniture. A proper fold-out double bed settee allows extra sleeping in the sitting area. Double doors and a Juliet balcony give views across the croquet lawn. The fully equipped kitchen is tucked in the corner of the generous living area with flat screen TV, comfortable chairs and a dining table. A wide double-glazed glass screen leads to an elevated paved balcony with outdoor seating and distant views over farmland to the church and Wolferlow Court.
The large gardens used to be open each year for the National Garden Scheme and include an orchard, wildflower meadow with ponds, herbaceous borders and distant views across farmland.
Well away from any busy roads the seven acre property is quiet, peaceful and private.
Attention to detail includes the provision of top quality bed linen, towels and towelling robes.
The Retreat is ideal for a couple looking for a romantic and luxury getaway or to bring the baby / younger children and enjoy a family time together.

We stayed for a week and Stuart was fantastic. I was late arriving as I had a slight problem with my youngest daughter who had fallen ill. Stuart was extremely understanding and helpful. Met me outside the property and gave me an excellent tour of the property and swimming pool which was very helpful. Was given a bottle of apple juice which was all home made from Stuart's own orchard, both my daughter and I loved it and was so tasty, a lovely thought from Stuart and Jill. It was also one of the cleanest properties I have stayed in, it was a credit to them both. They think of everything to make your stay as perfect as possible and I can't thank them enough. The surrounding area and land around where you are based is beautiful and amazing. Stuart has 2 horse in the fields next to the property and my daughter fell in love with them both, feeding them the odd apple from Stuart's orchard. It was such a quiet place to stay,bperfect if you require a bit of peace and quiet. We had full access to the swimming pool 24/7 which was fantastic, lovely clean pool and a spotlessly clean changing room with shower facilities. There is a Sauna which we never got time to use,which to be honest I am gutted about as I really wanted to use the sauna,but hey that's my fault. A truly remarkable place to stay and I would not hesitate it recommending this property for an amazing week away, it was truly amazing and rewarding. Thank you Stuart and Jill, we will be back .

We stayed at The Retreat for 7 days and what an amazing time we had! The accommodation itself was clean, spacious and had everything you needed. With extra special touches like unlimited towels and robes for when you got out of the private pool, which was completely your own throughout the duration of your stay. You could enjoy this pool any time of the day or evening and it even had a sauna and table tennis table for you to enjoy! It was so beautiful and quiet and it was so nice to overlook the orchard and hear and see the horses in the morning whilst sitting on the veranda having a cup of tea. Jill and Stuart were lovely people, kind and helpful and were there even for just a chat. They really did make it a perfect holiday for myself and my daughter who doesn't like a lot of people around. I would really recommend this place to anyone, especially if it's quiet and tranquil you are looking for and with the added bonus of the swimming pool for the children and adults it really does make it a perfect holiday. We will definitely be booking again and it was worth every penny!

We had a lovely time staying here,the owners gave us absolute privacy. We had the apartment and pool / sauna along with a whole orchard to walk in to ourselves. There are lots of bridle ways to go walking right on the door step. Our every need was met by our hosts. The only thing to note is the pool was quite cold but once you braved it,it was really refreshing! Would come again

Booked last minute ( night before ) Easter Break for Family of four. Stuart responded very quickly and met us when we arrived, and gave us a tour. The apartment was as advertised , as was the pool , which the kids loved , using it every day. The location is very peaceful with wonderful views.

Great getaway for a small family, in a lovely rural part of the country. The pool, sauna and table tennis kept us occupied and the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Certainly considering a return visit.

We had a lovely time at the property. It has everything you need to have an enjoyable stay. The pool and sauna were definitely the highlight especially as English weather was predictably rainy. Yes the pool was a little chilly but the kids didn’t seem to mind and the sauna was amazing to warm up in after a swim. We enjoyed playing table tennis as well. There is no DVD player as described in the listing so something to keep in mind. We explored the local area a bit as well. The mappa mundi in Hereford cathedral was fascinating and we enjoyed the black and white history trail in Weobley. Overall a fabulous stay and we’ll definitely be back.

The Retreat was a great place to stay for the festive period. It was warm, cosy and bright even on dull and rainy days. The kitchen was excellent and had pretty much everything we needed to cook and serve our Christmas lunch. The fairy lights and the Christmas tree outside certainly helped to make it festive. The pool and table tennis were absolutely lovely and we enjoyed having a swim every day. Would certainly be a great place to return to in the summer. We enjoyed exploring this area of Worcestershire, Ludlow, Stourport on Severn and the Severn Valley Railway on Boxing Day was a great day out. We would definitely recommend.

Lovely and peaceful. Although you are on property with owners it feels no different to just a neighbour and privacy is maintained Pool was great, horses loved the apples from the orchard, we will definitely return and recommend.
