Chevalier's Rest

This historical plot is an Elizabethan-era gatehouse that has been transformed into an extraordinary holiday home. Prepare to live it up like royalty under the home's original wooden ceiling beams and exposed-brick fireplaces, with a wooden-clad dining room ready to host your feasts. Bedrooms have been named after previous guests: the Margaret Thatcher Suite has a freestanding bath next to the four-poster bed, while Prince Rupert is a cuddlier space with ruby red tapestries lining the walls. Bathrooms are set in the turrets, with towering ceilings and rainfall showers making our mornings all the better. The exterior is just as fascinating; take a stroll through the floral gardens to discover the traditional water features, or pack yourself a picnic for the greens.

About Herefordshire
Sandwiched between the Midlands and Wales, and hugging both the Malvern Hills and the Brecon Beacons, Herefordshire – despite its wild landscapes and dramatic history – still manages to feel like a well-kept secret. This county’s scenery feels veritably Wordsworthian with its Daffodil Way trail, rapeseed yellow fields, pockets of pink blossoms hiding candyfloss-like sheep and the sparkling River Wye weaving through sun-speckled valleys.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
