Reviews
"The whole process of booking, communication, directions to the property and key collection went very smoothly. Although one room, the accommodation is very spacious & indeed bigger than many apartments, with comfortable furniture. The kitchen is very well equipped, the WiFi excellent, the bed comfortable, cable TV and lots of books and games. The hosts were friendly but not intrusive. We would happily recommended the property to others.,"
"Stayed here with two friends for a as we were attending a wedding in Shobden. What an absolute gem of a place. Very clean and comfortable. Well equipped. Delightful. The owners were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We left early to return home so missed being able to thank them. Will definitely return. Such a lovely part of the country and Kington was great."
"We had a lovely two weeks in the Schoolroom. It was really comfortable and spacious. A real home from home. Every thing we needed. The kitchen was well equipped too. We went on some really lovely walks around the area. A lovely relaxing holiday."
"I loved everything about this venue. The lovely little courtyard, the views from the large Georgian windows across the hills in the one direction and towards the village square from the other. It was comfortable, very well equipped and so central to everything and everywhere. Walking into the town was easy, the public transport was accessible too and the owner was very helpful and friendly.There were so many interesting places to visit, all within a manageable distance. Less than an hour away. Hay-on-Wye. Hereford, Ludlow and of course right on the border with Wales. A perfect mixture and I would definitely visit again."
"My wife and I loved this converted school room. Spacious main area with purpose-built little bathroom incorporated in one corner of the large room. We especially loved the 2 large sofas where we could both stretch out luxuriously after a stiff walk in the surrounding hills. The place was beautifully warm. Kitchen generally well equipped, though a few half pint tumblers would have come in useful (there were only small or pint sized glasses). This is not a criticism, but the property only having one room means the first person up in the morning has to be very considerate about putting the light on if the other person is still fast asleep. As a suggestion, curtaining off the whole bed area would make all the difference. Owners very friendly. Kington had loads of character and charm, and the school room was brilliantly located for wandering into town within 2 mins. Would definitely consider returning."
"The School Room was a pleasant,comfortable and very well-equipped place to stay. It was very close to shops, restaurants and pubs in Kington. Kington itself is a good centre for exploring Herefordshire and Mid-Wales, with good walks nearby. A very peaceful and relaxing place and a great change from our usual city life."
"The place was very homely and clean. The owner was very helpful and kind. We have a pleasant stay.(:"
