Location
Situated on a working farm just three miles from Kington is this charming, 19th Century stone-built cottage. The local area offers a huge range of activities, including walks through Radnor Forest and along the infamous Offa's Dyke Pathway, as well as trips to the riverside town of Kington and the ancient cathedral city of Hereford. With so much to do in the near vicinity, visitors will be spoiled for choice.
Situated just one mile from the famous Offa's Dyke Pathway, the small hamlet of Walton is home to the delightful Walton Court Farm and a welcoming village pub. Also within a mile is the beautiful Radnor Forest which offers excellent cycling and rambling opportunities. Slightly further away is the pleasant town of Kington – a renowned place amongst walkers, due to its setting and the pretty rolling hills of The Marches. There are also a number of good shops, pubs and restaurants in the town itself. The Mortimer Trail and walks to Hergest Ridge provide visitors to the region with the chance to see the inspiration for music by Elgar and Mike Oldfield whilst the market town of Hay-on-Wye – often called the ‘town of books' is within easy driving distance. Hereford too is not far and offers an impressive Norman cathedral and the famous Mappa Mundi.
Famous for its choirs, stunning mountain ranges and beautiful valleys, this wonderful country has something for everyone. From Snowdonia in North Wales to the Brecon Beacons and the Pembrokeshire Coast in the South.
Reviews of Court Cottage
"Stopped here with two teenagers. The cottage is roomy with 2 double and 2 single bedrooms. Mrs Price who owns it has an amazing taste. The ability to put abstract things together and make rooms look great. Quirky but great. She should be an interior designer as she has a great eye. Big garden, barbecue and parking for two cars and more by campsite if needed. There is a campsite at the rear but it is not noticeable. The cottage has decent wi fi and a 22" flatscreen tv containing a DVD. The kitchen is well equipped and pleasant and there is a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. There is an onsite shop that is a real gem full of great stuff milk, eggs, bacon and essentials. A real lifesaver at times. It's an honesty shop. No service just leave the money. The place is pretty remote . The pub across the road is closed and the nearest chip shop is 3 miles away. Same distance for a convenience store and be warned not much stays open past 9! We found the local pubs disappointing for food and not that inviting. We drove 17 miles away to Leominster to eat which took about 30 minutes. Also the house suffers from damp so will feel a bit wet to the touch , you smell it when you come in. You acclimatise and it does not spoil the holiday but it is always there . We travelled to the big pit, national showcases, Hereford, Worcester all about 60-90 minutes away. We also went to mount Snowden but that took 3 hours. The roads are all A road and not fast easy drives. Windy and bendy and if you go fast you may meet something coming the opposite way! All in all a great holiday and a decent cottage."

"A delightful cottage in lovely surroundings. The owners are very friendly and helpful and had left a welcome pack of freshly laid eggs from their chickens, welsh cakes and locally produced raspberry lemonade. Plenty to see and do within 30-45 minute drive as well as on doorstep with some lovely walks on the neighbouring footpaths. We visited Hereford, Leominster, Hay on Wye and The Elan Valley to name just a few. All in all a very enjoyable week and a place I would have no hesitation recommending to anyone."

"This was a really homely, friendly cottage. It is filled with beautiful patchworks and cushions made by the owner which give it such a warm feeling. There is so much to do in this part of the UK that we could have easily stayed for another week and still not done everything! The beds were super comfy! The kitchen was nice and easy to use. "

"On arrival, the owner had left fresh eggs, baking and homemade lemonade for us. She also came to greet us and check that we knew how to use the utilities. We felt very welcomed and the cottage had everything that we could possibly need. I would definitely recommend this as it is close to lovely walks in Kington where the people are also very friendly and helpful. A truly lovely place to spend a holiday. "

"This property was perfect for our planned cycling and walking holiday - only the weather dampened our spirits a little bit. I stayed with my three children and we hired bikes from a local hire company. The house at Walton is a perfect base for a number of walking routes and cycling routes, and a perfect cosy retreat from some of the summer weather!"

"This is an area that we have wanted to visit for quite some time. We could not have picked a better base. The house was gorgeous, the immediate area very quiet and picturesque but within easy reach of either breathtaking countryside or towns. There is plenty to see, and is ideal for anyone wanting to get away from it all without being too isolated. "
