Ryeland Loft, nr Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire
Well off the beaten track, half a mile from the main road, Ryeland Loft is a new building located on a farm in rural Worcestershire. Looking out over rolling hills and far reaching views over primarily unspoilt farmland, you can enjoy the tranquillity of a true countryside setting, interrupted only by the sounds of our flock of pedigree Ryeland sheep and horses. A walker's paradise, venture out along public footpaths from the doorstep and connect with miles of routes across the county. Cyclists also enjoy the area's quieter roads and challenging terrain.

Spacious accommodation
Accessible via an external staircase, Ryeland Loft is not suitable for guest who have reduced mobility where steps would be an obstacle. Occupying the entire top floor of our newly built lodge, the Loft is laid out simply. One large, open plan room with full kitchen, dining area and corner sofa with smart TV, this is a lovely space in which to rest, relax or work. Light streams in through the windows, from which you can drink in the far-reaching views of the orchards and countryside beyond. The comfortable bedroom has a kingsize bed and plenty of storage while the ensuite bathroom has a double-ended bath with handheld shower. Lie back, relax and watch the sky go by through the roof window.

What's included
Our internet is not infallible! While we do usually have good reception with Vodaphone, the TV and internet are provided via mobile wi fi and offers Netflix, but it is not a rare event for Netflix to pause during a movie, or the Wi-Fi to irritatingly down tools while you are trying to do some internet banking. So if you are after a consistent guaranteed Wi-Fi, no can do. But it does work most of the time!
