Gardens and Grounds

One of the highlights of the property are the stunning grounds designed by Chelsea Flower Show multi-gold medal winner Robert Myers.  The garden and grounds are beautifully planted and well maintained. There is an orchard full of fruit trees, picturesque ponds (don't worry, these are fenced) , lawns, a walled garden that catches the evening sun, perfect for drinks before dinner and a wisteria covered south-facing terrace ideal for long leisurely lunches.

With far-reaching views across the totally unspoilt Herefordshire-Worcestershire countryside and no roads, streetlights or other houses to be seen, The Freeth is the ideal place to relax and get away from it all.
