Rabbits scamper, buzzards soar and windows flood rooms with light in this cosy stable with glorious views. Let the kids and dogs roam free!

Stealing its name from the backdrop of ancient undisturbed woodland, the cottage and its surrounds make a natural family home – for both frazzled humans and local badgers. Winding
your way up the long peaceful track to this converted stable, you catch glorious glimpses of the Teme and Kyre valleys; the setting is spectacular. On arrival,you're greeted by the
delightful Ellie, whose grounds and beautifully tended English country garden you share. Generous windows flood rooms with light that bounces off polished elm floorboards; a wood-burner and Aga keep things cosy, the kitchen is handcrafted, the views are long and bucolic. Upstairs, bedrooms are brass-bedded and floral, tucked under the eaves in that cottagey way. You get a handy loo and basin up here, and a sparkling bathroom with a roll top tub downstairs. Lucky children have seven acres to romp in, and a secret treehouse with hammocks and a barbecue for midnight feasts. Resting on the borders of three counties, this is prime walking country. Bustling Ledbury and Ludlow, England's slow food capital, are just a drive away.



The cottage offers magnificent views in all directions-over the Teme and Kyre valleys, ancient woodland and unspoilt farmland. Longcover is a detached cottage in a very rural position. Guests will enjoy a private patio at the side which looks on to fish pools and an ancient oak woodland. Leading directly from the cottage is an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways where badgers and owls may be seen. Tenbury Wells, an attractive spa and market town in the Teme Valley, is 4 miles away. The fine Georgian town of Ludlow is 25 minute drive away.

    The long lane up to the house was very rough and had to stop and break off spikey branches to avoid damages to paint work of car. Host not available on arrival, a large dog appeared and jumped up and scratched car. Host denied this happened!!! No clear sign to indicate cottage was behind hosts house. Outside area was dirty and unkept. Could not wait to leave!!!

    Long Cover cottage is the perfect retreat in the perfect setting run by the perfect host. The cottage and grounds are utterly beautiful and the freedom to wander around, and use the facilities: an outdoor pizza oven, croquet set, two gorgeous, well equipped bothys, was magical. Eleanor was wonderful - warm, friendly and helpful but unobtrusive, genuinely the perfect host. I would recommend to anyone wanting to get away from it all; the only sounds to be heard are the birds, bees and wildlife and the wind in the trees. We will definitely be back.

    This was our second visit to Long Cover as a family of four. Great to be able to eat out on the terrace and wander through the garden. Next door to the owners house - even a lovely Labrador to greet us.

    Hostess was superb and available at any time although fortunately, we didn’t really need her. She lives on site and responded to our enquiries almost instantly. Beautiful gardens, great views, all sorts of cubby holes to hide out and read in (in inclement weather, a great spot to sit comfortably and light the stove ). Don’t visit if you’re looking for entertainment- it is quiet and excellent for walking and solitude. There is a dog on the property and he is a big, young, hyper puppy. He’s strong but such a nice animal and super social; he doesn’t bark or enter your rooms. Remember you’re in the country and be respectful and responsible! I couldn’t say more

    As soon as we arrived we wanted to stay longer. The view, spectacular; peace, perfect; little house, charming. Everything clean and well thought out, good amount of kitchen utensils and equipment, cooker as well as aga. Enough wood for daily fires, private terrace and garden space. Walking directly from the garden to lovely bluebell woods and fields. Eleanor and family were charming and helpful with everything and very tolerant of our old dog who went to visit them. Just lovely , did I mention the view?
