FIND YOUR DREAM COUNTRY HOME

Our property of the month PEAR TREE FARM, WIGMORE, HEREFORDSHIRE £700, 000

FOR THOSE WHO DREAM OF A RURAL DWELLING, but would like plenty of things to do on their doorstep, this six-bedroom 17th-century farmhouse is ideal. The property is situated within the historic north Herefordshire village of Wigmore, with the medieval ruins of Wigmore Castle just down the road – perfect for exploring at the weekend. There’s also a community-run shop within walking distance where you can go to pick up supplies before returning home to read the papers by the warmth of the oil-fired Aga. Beautiful views across the garden and surrounding countryside can be seen from the second-floor bedrooms, and the farmhouse’s two acres, which include an orchard, copse and hidden seating areas, offer wonderful walking opportunities. In the evening, two newly refurbished village pubs make great spots to meet friends for a beer and a bite to eat.
