Very luxurious and convenient. A very well thought out recent renovation. Easy walking distance to the heart of town. Will certainly come again.

Maravilhosa! Nossa estadia foi perfeita, a casa é compacta mas tem tudo, muito bem montada, limpa, com amenidades, móveis e decoração luxuosos, roupas de cama impecáveis. \nFomos no natal e tinha até alguns itens de decoração que deixaram a casa ainda mais linda. \nAmamos tudo, recomendamos e voltaremos!

Eine tolle Unterkunft! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt - das Haus ist modern aber gemütlich eingerichtet. Jedes Schlafzimmer hat ein eigenes Bad. Die Fussbodenheizung im Wohnraum hat die kalten Tage sehr gemütlich gemacht. Die kleine Terrasse ist wunderbar um Sonnenstrahlen zu genießen. Wir haben vor allem das Kochen in der tollen Küche genossen. Ein rund um schönes Haus und tolle Gastgeber - nur zu empfehlen!!

Elegant, comfortable, convenient. Near country and town. A home from home Positive: Overall interior design was thoughtful and attractive ,including small but lovely patio garden. Property was clean and well cared for.Everything worked. Kitchen well equipped with enough crockery to be able to have people round to eat. Effective washer-dryer and clothes horse. Fantastic to have a bath as well as 2 showers. To find a place with 3 toilets is unusual and very helpful as one of our party has a special need. Location perfect - easy walking distance of cathedral and shops, lovely nature reserve at the end of the road so good for morning walk/run. Nice touches throughout such as motion sensitive light/torch on stairs. Toiletries provided were a bit different and very nice. Negative: It was lovely - just a couple of very minor things: handwash was empty in 2 of the bathrooms, no dishwasher tabs. Front yard & door could maybe do with cleaning and minor touching up so that the first impression does justice to the interior.Hereford’s rubbish collection system was unclear and I was troubled I couldn’t empty the bins before leaving. felt bad leaving for housekeeping as instructed. Hope they came promptly!

The property has clearly been renovated to a very high standard fairly recently - and it shows. All fittings and furniture are immaculate. The outside space is very comfortable. The beds are very comfortable and the showers (both en-suite) are excellent. It is a very short walk to the heart of Hereford which is a lovely town. The lovely walks by the river are very close.

This is a great place to stay in a great location. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for having us.

Excellent property

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Lovely house in a walkable distance to the town we had a great break

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Great, exceeded expectations, thoughtfully decorated. A real home away from home.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

We had a fantastic time. We come to Hereford every year and this is one of the best airbnbs we’ve stayed in! The house is amazing, it’s got everything you need and some. The location is perfect, parking was no problem and Charlie’s communication was spot on. We will 100% stay again and we would definitely recommend this house to anyone.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

What a lovely house! Deceptively big and beautifully decorated - it really has a lovely relaxing ambience. I had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back. The kitchen has everything you need, and the comfortable lounge and garden (comfy garden chairs and very private) were perfect for relaxing, eating dinner and catching up with friends. We were lucky enough to be there for the recent partial eclipse so at one stage had multiple mini eclipse shadows on the walls from tree shadows, which were quite special! When the temperatures allowed, we left the bifold windows wide open and I swear at different times it felt like being abroad and not just in lovely little old Hereford! 😊 Thanks for a great stay.

teasdaleBooking.comAug 2026

Beautiful accommodation Positive: Well thought out accommodation,with homely touches.Excellent facilities,very comfortable.Handy corner shop and pub.Close to central Hereford. Information before arrival was excellent. Negative: Narrow road so parking was tight.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Lovely stay! Would highly recommend, perfect for two friends sharing together. We stayed during a hot week, so we were glad to have the bi-fold doors in the kitchen/lounge! If we’d known there was an induction hob we would’ve brought an induction compatible moka pot - to make iced coffees :)

Stunning place to stay for our short visit to Hereford. Absolutely loved everything about it. Spacious well presented property with lovely little yard with Mediterranean feel to it…great for alfresco dining. Great communication with host. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

YunusBooking.comJul 2026

Loved the nod to South Africa. Not sure if this was intentional but much appreciated. Open and private living space and Positive: Open, clean, mindfully decorated with all our needs taken into account. Negative: Thankfully free street parking was available, but it was very tight. It is what it is.

AliBooking.comJul 2026

Positive: Beautifully presented, comfortable and just the perfect place

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

Le logement est beau, bien équipé et confortable. Dommage que le ménage ne soit pas à la hauteur (poubelle de la cuisine pleine à notre arrivée, sacs poubelles entassés dans le placard de la terrasse et qui attirent les mouches, plein de cheveux sur les coussins des lits). Je l'ai signalé immédiatement, j'ai relancé durant 48h, mais personne n'est venu malgré les engagements pris. Très décevant!

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

Great stay, adorable space, well appointed and nice location in walkable distance to Hereford Cathedral and surrounding areas.

FrancesBooking.comJun 2026

We had a relaxing and comfortable stay. Positive: The comfort and modern feel of the house. The closeness to the cathedral and other sights of Hereford. Negative: My son and I were happy with everything,

MarkVrboJun 2026

Property is very nicely finished and appointed. Neighborhood is quite accessible by foot to Cathedral, river, and city center. Parking is the main drawback (but not impossible).

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

The School House is well designed with high quality fixtures, fittings and equipment situated in a quiet neighbourhood. The outside space is delightful. It is ideally positioned for exploring Hereford and the surrounding places of interest and countryside. A few snags – Mostly minor (no space for them) but one serious that the owner has not resolved in a satisfactory way. We arrived at a property just a minute or two before the 16:00 check-in time to see the cleaners draw in behind us. This was bad enough. They were then unable to gain access because there was no key in the key safe. We had friends arriving who had travelled a long distance, and we had no idea where we would sleep the night. I was googling hotels to try to ensure that we all had a bed. We also had perishable food purchased locally that was degrading in the car in the hot sun. Fortunately the cleaners were able to source a spare key. However, we had to stand in the street for 90 minutes waiting.

GuestAirbnbJun 2026

We loved our stay - the house was fantastic, especially for sitting out in the garden with the bi-folds open on a hot summer's day. It was well equipped and fitted out to a high quality. The location was great, with a nice easy walk of 10 minutes to the river, cathedral and city centre. Although parking was a bit of a challenge, we were always able to find a space within a couple of minutes walk of the property, and the streets were quiet enough to be able to load/unload the car from right by the front door.

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Great propert for a couple and friends visiting the Hay festival

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Had a lovely stay at the School House in Hereford. Great location near the town centre which meant we could walk rather than have to drive into the town centre. The courtyard garden was a delight. especially when the sun managed to make an appearance. The house was tastefully decorated to a high standard and felt home from home. The only thing that could have enhanced the stay was having a coffee machine as we both love or caffeine hit.

GuestAirbnbMay 2026

Alles Super, alles vorhanden was man braucht, nur kein Radio 😂 Alles schnell zu Fuß erreichbar, immer wieder 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Gorgeous house, decor and kitchen facilities were excellent & beds were super comfy. My little family loved it, and we will definitely use again.

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Place was very clean and loved all the decorative touches. Appreciated the quality of the bed linens and the toiletries and liked the outdoor patio, would recommend. Good communication and clear instructions. Thanks!

GuestAirbnbMar 2026

Lovely stay in a great part of Hereford. Beautiful accommodation, short walk to shops and the river. Corner shop less than a minute away on foot.

GuestAirbnbMar 2026

Alle faciliteter og lokationen var skønne. Jeg havde dog ikke fået en kode til nøgleboksen på forhånd og endte med at vente halvanden time udenfor for at komme ind, da jeg bare følte jeg blev sendt i ring i telefonen.

GuestAirbnbJan 2026

Great place to stay and fantastic location with amenities well stocked and clean. The design of the place and the setting was brilliant well worth visiting!

GuestAirbnbDec 2025

Very stylish, well equipped house that was perfect for all our needs. It's location is ideal with just a short walk into the centre of Hereford, and a friendly pub very close by. We would definitely consider returning, maybe in the summer to appreciate the garden area which integrates to the kitchen/sitting area via the bifold doors. Communication from the host was excellent and we appreciated the parking permit that allowed us to park one car in the road outside the house.

GuestAirbnbNov 2025

Lovely comfortable stay

GuestAirbnbNov 2025

Would highly recommend this place! We had a lovely few days in this beautiful home, hopefully will be back very soon!

AmandaBooking.comNov 2025

The house was really lovely and comfortable. Positive: No breakfast supplied Negative: The main room was excellent, but the other room was quite small, nowhere to put suit cases.

GuestAirbnbNov 2025

Wonderful air BNB, couldn't have asked for more! Very clean, well furnished, warm and had everything we needed, felt like a home from home. Location was great, we could walk into town in 10 mins, cathedral in 5. Was on the river wye which is beautiful. Highly recommend!

GuestAirbnbOct 2025

Beautiful property as described with a stunning little outside area. My only tiny grumble is the hand soaps in the bathrooms were empty - didn’t spoil the trip though

GuestAirbnbOct 2025

Excellent location and home just like the pictures. Worth noting that it is being run by an external company who seem to outsource communications. The people we spoke to seemed unfamiliar with the property when we had issues (e.g. they didn’t know how to fix the extractor as they did not seem to know what extractor was in the home). The hand soap in every toilet/bathroom was empty, they agreed to refill and then didn’t come, then when I spoke on the phone they tried to argue not all their listings come with soap and became very argumentative and unhelpful over such a basic amenity (which was included on the listing). Gorgeous home so a shame that the communication is so poor.

GuestAirbnbSep 2025

Great place, super clean and well provided - thank you

GuestAirbnbAug 2025

Gorgeous decoration, furniture and courtyard was lovely. Local pub - The Volunteer - was good too.

GuestAirbnbAug 2025

Very clean and nicely renovated house. Very hot in the summer, could do with blinds on the bifold door

SarahBooking.comJul 2025

Very enjoyable in a great location and we would recommend it to friends and family. Positive: The location was excellent. The property was well presented and all the necessary facilities were provided. Negative: N/A

GuestAirbnbJun 2025

Had a great week . The location was perfect as it was near the river and the parks and the Cathedral area which we loved , all walkable , we chose it for those reasons . The house was very modern and had all the amenities we wanted . My only issue was the parking , although we had a permit provided it was sometimes rather busy on the road . Otherwise could not find fault . Loved our time there .

StephenBooking.comJun 2025
GuestAirbnbJun 2025

Lovely stay and house. My only recommendation would be to get some blinds so you can shut them in the front room as people can see into the front room/kitchen

GarethBooking.comMay 2025

Positive: The place was spotless, and the location was perfect! Negative: The only negative was no blinds or curtains to block the sun when watching tv.

GuestAirbnbMay 2025

Beautiful house, clean, walking distance to town - would recommend !

GuestAirbnbMay 2025

Great location, lovely river walks nearby and city centre within walking distance. Great house with lovely facilities.

GuestAirbnbMay 2025

The place is very clean and There is a public promenade nearby,

GuestAirbnbFeb 2025

The stay was amazing! The place looked exactly like the pictures. Very well decorated and came with all the things you need. The place was in a good location too, not being a far walk from town, the station or the hospital which were places we frequently visited. Would recommend.

GuestAirbnbJan 2025

The house is exactly how it looks in the pictures, probably even better in person. Very clean, beautifully decorated. Walking distance to wherever we needed to go.

GuestAirbnbJan 2025

Beautiful place, modern, clean and tidy! Host is always amazing! :)

MarkBooking.comNov 2024

Excellent property, we had a fantastic time Positive: Excellent finish to the property furnishings Negative: One of the bathrooms had an odour initially but this became less noticeable after run I g the shower

AlysonBooking.comSep 2024

We really enjoy it . Positive: Location .felt welcoming when you walked in . Negative: 10am is an early check out time . Property was very clean and tidy . But there was an awful smell in smaller bedrooms on suite .

GuestAirbnbSep 2024

This is a great house to stay in. Beautifully and tastefully decorated. Comfortable beds. Looks like the photos and is accurately described. Everything finished to a high standard. Lovely outside space. However communication with the host was very impersonal. We received lots of generic responses. They were not flexible about check in and check out times at all. And furthermore we had to pay a £250 security deposit on booking in case of any damage to the property. They kept that until two weeks after checkout (so six weeks in all). I have never had to do this in any other Airbnb. It may put me off staying there again despite it being a lovely house.

GuestAirbnbSep 2024

Fantastic house looked exactly like the pictures. Everything needed was there. Would recommend to future visitors
