The Piggery Reviews

We had such a lovely stay at The Piggery! Its a cosy little place with two goodsized double bedrooms and everything and more! that we needed as a family of two adults and two young children. The accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and felt like a real homefromhome. The hot tub and private patio area were a real treat, and the kids loved playing in the small gated community area it felt safe and peaceful, yet still close enough to the city for a nice meal out. We even had delicious homemade cupcakes waiting for us on arrival, which was such a thoughtful touch. We met the hosts at the end of our stay and they were absolutely lovely so warm and welcoming. Overall, it was a wonderful, relaxing break in a beautiful setting, and we wouldnt hesitate to come back again.
Beautiful accommodation, everything was spotlessly clean and well laid out. The complimentary cupcakes were lovely. Would definitely recommend and will hopefully return in the future.
Beautiful accommodation. Extremely clean and well maintained. The communal garden and surroundings were lovely. Accommodation had anything you could need for a weeks stay. We stayed with our two month old baby and our dog, plenty of space for us all and would definitely stay again.
Christopher
Everything you needed was there lovely and clean ,cant fault it will be booking again
A lovely, high spec property. Spent 5 days with my two teenage children and we had plenty of room and really enjoyed our stay. Used the hot tub every day which was a real treat. We were there on the hottest day of the year but the Piggery felt lovely and cool inside.
Great hosts and a great area for exploring
Carlton A
We really enjoyed our stay at the Piggery. The communal gardens were in excellent condition, clean, and really well maintained! The accommodation was clean, the facilities were excellent, plus the bed in the ground floor bedroom was very comfortable. We made use of the small front garden and hot tub which again were well maintained. We had a lovely walk around the gardens at Hampton Court castle, a short drive away. Thank you to Steph and Jarrod and your team. We'll definitely return & have recommended you to family!
Stunning cottage in fabulous grounds. Central for exploring areas like the Cotswolds,Wye Valley and Welsh Borders. Cottage is high spec and has everything you need. The outdoor space is also excellent with a fabulous private hot tub and seating area. One thing to maybe consider is we found the sofa and bed upstairs very low which from a mobility & bad knee or back scenario made getting down to them and back up from them a little bit difficult. We have to say though that they were both really comfortable whilst lying sitting down. This is not a criticism but maybe just something to consider pointing out for the less mobile. All in all we had an amazing few days and would highly recommend The Piggery or one of the other holiday rentals in the grounds.
The Piggery was absolutely fantastic! The facilities were amazing. It was spotlessly clean, the beds were supercomfortable, the garden was perfect for my dog, the hot tub was gorgeous and everything inside The Piggery was designed to make our stay incredibly relaxing starting with the cupcakes and doggy treats on arrival! Herefordshire is a stunning county and The Piggery fits perfectly into its surroundings. We had a wonderful stay thank you so much!
Melissa
An absolutely beautiful property, even better than the pictures! The owners thought of everything and gave us everything we could possibly need for our stay. We will be returning!
Olivia
A lovely holiday stay, very central location whilst also managing to be tucked away in the countryside. We would come back and recommend to others
Warren
What a find! Weve been searching for a decent place to stay in Hereford for years and we have finally found one. The Piggery is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Oh, and the hot tub is the icing on the cake. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to eat in recommend Legges Farm shop, a 5 mins drive. Jarrod, the owner was friendly and attentive and we also met Bridget, the lovely housekeeping lady, who looks after the property so well. We spent 3 nights with our teenage daughter and dog. The garden is fine for the dogs morning wee but keep on a lead because there are a few gaps in the hedge. Locally, Aylestone Park is ideal for the dog to have a good run. The Cross Keys Pub across the road is friendly but doesnt serve food, do recommend that you bring a few staples with you. Looking forward to our next stay at the Piggery,
We had a wonderful stay at The Piggery for Christmas. We thoroughly enjoyed the delicious cup cakes on arrival. Our family booked two other stables there and all are very nice. We had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. In the words of our son 'it was the best Christmas ever'. We will definitely return in the near future. Thank you!

Was a lovely lodge very clean very tidy and comfortable and with the storm ... Was a lovely lodge very clean very tidy and comfortable and with the storm affecting us and flooding the owner kindly woke us up and moved our cars so they didnt flood and lent us wellies and helped pack the cars up and directed us a way back home so we would avoid the most puddles
Philip
A very comfortable and attractive property, close to Hereford and good access to countryside for walking etc. The hot tub was very luxurious! Excellent value!
Gordana
Lovely converted barn with hot tub, ideally located for beautiful walks and exploring Hereford. Good cooking facilities and comfortable bed. Ideal for a couple we only used one bedroom but a second bedroom is available.
Allistair
This is our second time of staying at this holiday site. We had previously stayed in the stables, this time staying in the piggery. The piggery was a larger property with more space for us and our dog which was ideal. However the bed was only a double which we struggled with for comfort and space. It has a lovely walk in shower and great kitchen facilities with everything you need. TV was a placed a little bit high and the sofa was quite low so anyone with mobility issues may have problems. Outside our patio has a fantastic hot tub which we much appreciated after a hot day out and about. There is a great enclosed communal garden area for everyone whos staying so you can exercise your dog and let them do their business in the knowledge they are safe off lead there. All in all a lovely place to stay and highly recommend. We will definitely visit again in the future. A big thank you to Jared and Steph!
Lorraine
My sister and I have a fantastic stay at the Piggery, we had everything you need for a home to home stay, well equipped and very clean , hot tub was lovley, would be a 5 star if the sofa was not so low and the TV so high, one of us has mobility issues and the low settee was difficult to get out of due to being so low to the floor , but was not mentioned in the description when we booked, but would certainly go back again If this issue was resolved . Thank you for a lovely stay. I will definitely recommend it to my friends and family.
Rachel
Amazing accommodation, clean, tidy everything we wished for. The hot tub was spotless thank you
Jennifer
Had a lovely week at The Piggery. If I had to give some feedback I would say, it was very clean but some of the grout in the shower needs a scrub. Beds are very small, we did not use the upstairs room but the bed was very low. The one in the downstairs room was comfy. The sofa is again very low and its very difficult to get off it. Apart from that the place is very well presented, all the amenities you need for a week. The little outside area is gorgeous, private but also the communal area which is immaculately maintained. Location wise, its about a 10 minute drive to supermarkets, I would say you need a car to get about. There is a bus service but its only every few hours and stops early evening. It is on the main road which is very busy but I felt we did not notice this, it was a relaxing stay.
Super location only a few miles from Hereford and Leominster so its the perfect place from which to explore the local area. Sleeps 4 but as we were just 2, we had lots of space. Spotlessly clean throughout, kitchen is equipped with cooker, dishwasher and microwave although no washing machinetumble dryer and only a small tabletop freezer. Perfectly private hot tub and good parking arrangements. We enjoyed our time here.
Beautiful place, our 3rd visit. Feels like a home from home. Lovely surroundings, everything is catered for. Hot tub is definitely a bonus. Good location for exploring. Looking forward to going back again
Fantastic place, very clean and well equipped. Loved the hot tub and tvs in all rooms. My only dislike is how low to the floor the furniture is. Just not comfy enough for us. Was a lovely relaxing trip.
The piggery was outstanding! We would highly recommend!!
Honestly what a place! The piggery as well as the surrounding grounds were absolutely stunning. Everything was clearly thought out carefully, and everything you needed was available to you. The hot tub was amazing, and as it's only 2 feet from the front door in your private courtyard, the dash inside was bearable in the minus 6 degrees temperature we enjoyed on our stay. Can't say enough positive things about this accomodation, and you should definitely book it if we haven't already beaten you to it.. Jarred was also very understanding when I set off the smoke alarms within 10 minutes of arriving, by accidentally putting an electric kettle on the hob as if it were a whistle one. Daft I know, but I like to think I'll forever hold the record for the quickest time the alarms been set off after arrival, and on a completely unrelated note I now no longer make my wife cups of tea
Another perfect stay. We cant wait to come back again for a third time!
Jacqui
Cottage was amazing, absolute perfection, everything had been thought of and provided for. Hot tub was very enjoyable! Ideal location for touring around Worcester, Wales and Gloucester. Position ideal for walking the dog, local shopping centre and places to eat. Would definitely return for another stay and would recommend 100
Shirley
We have had the most relaxing break, the Piggery was immaculately clean and maintained with all the equipment to facilitate the most enjoyable stay.
We recently stayed as a group of 4 adults at the piggery, with 2 dogs. The accommodation was perfect, everything had been thought of. It was clean and tidy, and spacious. The decor was lovely, the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The garden area was wellmaintained and a safe environment for the dogs. There was also a more private garden with a hot tub which was lovely in the evenings. The location was ideal, less than a 10 minute drive to Hereford town, and also the river for the dogs to have a cool down. We also found a lovely circular walk around the area, allowing us to admire the countryside. We ate at the beefy boys and had a roast in the bookshop both of which come highly recommended! Theres also a lovely pub across the road, less than a 2 minute walk! We would highly recommend the piggery and will more than likely return for another stay, thank you so much!
We just love it there. Always clean and tidy. It has such a lovely feel for it. Our daughter loves the upstairs room, 'the princess room' going back in easter for the third time. Scooby says thank you for the biscuits
Property is absolutely stunning. Everything you need is there. Spotlessly clean and the outside space is really lovely. The owners attention to detail shows, absolutely loved the mix of old and new in the property. I would highly recommend this property. It is exceptional
Michelle
Lovely accommodation. Fabulous outside space for dogs, nice enclosed patio area as well. Hot tub was a great. Inside there is everything you could want. Would highly recommend.
We enjoyed every minute of our stay at this wonderful property
A beautiful place to stay. We stayed in The Piggery. A lovely cottage and finished to a high standard. We thought the drinks and cakes that were left for us on our arrival was a really nice touch. If there was one thing that I would change, it would be the sofa in the lounge. It is soooo low and difficult to get off. On the whole, a lovely holiday cottage. Jarred was very friendly and helpful regarding the area. We would stay here again.
Wow what a beautiful place! Lovely setting. Great for our dog scooby, nice enclosed area. Hot tub was lovely, very clean. Inside you had everything you could want. Our daughter loved the room upstairs, she felt like a princess ! Looking forward to re booking and exploring more of the area. Thank you x
Fantastic property and a great area to visit
We booked a very last minute break. I was extremely happy with The Piggery. The property was so clean, comfortable, good location and the welcome pack went down a treat. I felt that these properties were loved and were so well looked after. Inside, quality furnishings. The outside area spotless. The hot tub just fab. I could not fault. We are already looking to book another stay. Thank you
Kimberley
The property was amazing, I have been watching these properties being built as I drive along this road everyday so seeing what they were like inside was wonderful . Lovely little touches with cupcakes, milk and orange juice and of course treats for my fur babies. When we arrived the house was lovely and warm and hot tub ready to be used. We have already booked another stay with them which I am already counting down the day
Roxanne
We had a great stay here over the new year, there was lots of places to visit near by and the accommodation was clean and tidy. We loved the arrival gifts especially the treats for the dogs. Would highly recommend and would return. Thank you so much.
