Lovely B&B, the couple were both very kind and welcoming and ensured we had a fabulous time. The breakfast was delicious, great quality local produce, really set our day off to a good start. The room itself was very cosy and comfortable, had everything you could possibly need with tea and coffee, a television with Roku box, umbrella, torch and walking map too which was just an extra special bonus especially if you like to go on walks/hikes. I would definitely recommend to anyone and would love to return again. It was a peaceful, tranquil stay, which is just what we needed

A lovely stay

I stayed alone at Bowens for the weekend and had a very pleasant visit. Host was welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The room was very clean, with a comfortable bed and plenty of pillows and blankets. I couldn't fault the cooked breakfast, coffee and orange juice I chose. I also loved the fact you could have it delivered to your room or choose to have it over looking the lovely garden.

A little gem

What a little gem this place is. Unfortunately didn’t get to spend enough time in the wonderful gardens and surrounding area as was here for work but still enjoyed the gorgeous garden views and the birds. Room was immaculate and really warm and cosy. Hosts were so welcoming and extremely accommodating. Breakfast was delicious too. Many thanks

The accommodation is of extremely high class which is set within a high class area in a quiet village location. It is a lovely quiet out-of-town area which is extremely peaceful and safe. it is recommended for taking a car as buses run on the hour until 6pm as there are lovely sights to see. Taxis are available which are clean and tidy. It is an extremely lovely area for hiking if you do not want to go into Hereford and the surrounding towns. The accommodation was immaculate. It is of a separate accommodation from the house which consists of a very clean and well equipped bathroom and a good sized bedroom. Breakfast is delivered to your room which is a bonus. All in all a lovely high classed area and accommodation. The owners could not have been more helpful. It was a lovely break.
