Quabbs Head Cottage
Seclusion is the real draw here: Quabbs Head Cottage sits within the Netherley Hall Estate, more than half a mile from the nearest home, with open views and ancient woodland around it. Sleeping 8 in 4 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms, it works especially well for extended families or a group of friends who want shared time without feeling on top of each other. Two bedrooms are on the ground floor, including a kingsize and a double, which makes the layout practical for guests who prefer fewer stairs.
French doors open from both the living room and dining room to separate terraces, and the first floor has another terrace reached from the landing and one of the kingsize bedrooms, giving the house a stronger connection to the setting than most. There’s an enclosed front garden with patio, seating and a barbecue, plus private parking for 4 cars; do note there are 6 steps in the garden. Guests can also request use of the estate’s tennis courts and gym, a useful extra for longer stays.

Quabbs Head Cottage, before it was renovated, extended and restored, was an isolated ‘two up, two down’ country cottage. It is unknown when exactly it was built, but it is shown on the 1840 Herefordshire Tithe Map, and it seems to have been built originally in the 14th or 15th century. It is located approximately half a mile from the nearest property, with views to open country, and beneath ancient deciduous woodland, in the heart of what is now the Netherley Hall Estate. It is shown on the 1840 Tithe Map as ‘Quabhead Cottage’. Quabb’s Head means literally the ‘the head of the bog’. The original gable wall has been lovingly restored, and the extensions have been built, with oak from ancient estate woodland. On the ground floor, you’ll find two beautifully appointed bedrooms, each designed to offer a restful night’s sleep. These bedrooms are perfect for grandparents or older family members who may prefer to have their accommodations on the ground level, providing convenience and easy access to the main living areas.
The deluxe bathroom on the ground floor includes a walk-in shower. The open-plan kitchen and living room on the ground floor create a communal space where everyone can gather, share meals, and create lasting memories. The dining room, with its ample seating for eight, provides the perfect setting for family dinners and celebrations.
The upper floor offers a master bedroom with a kingsize bed and a luxurious en-suite shower room. This bedroom provides direct access to a large upper-floor terrace, where one can escape for moments of tranquillity or enjoy a morning coffee while admiring the stunning views. The terrace can also be accessed via French doors on the landing area too. The second bedroom on the first floor, also equipped with a kingsize bed, offers a comfortable and stylish sanctuary. With its elegant decor and inviting ambiance, it’s the perfect space to recharge after a day of exploring. There is also a family bathroom on the first floor,with tub and shower overhead, which offers even more indulgence with an opulent family bathroom that is sure to impress.
This stunning bathroom is a true masterpiece, boasting a high-design finish that exudes elegance and sophistication.
The beauty of this luxury holiday let lies not only in its design and high-end amenities but also in its ability to accommodate and cater to multi-generational families.
