The Throne is a beautiful Grade 2*-listed house in an award-winning black and white village in rolling English countryside. The owners have carefully added a huge open plan living area to the original medieval building to create a stunning and relaxed place to stay. The garden is enchanting with its large lawn, pretty patios and well tended flower beds. There's no better place to be, whether you want to enjoy a morning coffee, play badminton, bounce on the trampoline, read a book, light the barbecue, enjoy fabulous local cheese and a glass of Weobley beer or just lie on the grass and listen to the birds. A lot of guests never want to leave the premises (and that was before lockdown!)

With 7 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and generous entertaining space, the Throne is dog friendly, ideal for family gatherings, friend reunions, and special celebrations. It's also sufficiently homely for a couple or small party to enjoy (there is a 35% discount for up to 6 people using 3 bedrooms).

This outstanding Grade II* listed house has a fascinating history and a Royal connection from which it takes its name. Begun in 1478 and expanded in 16th century, it hosted Charles I for a night in 1645 during the English Civil War. He came fresh from relieving the siege of Hereford, a rare victory for the Royalists at that time. The original Tudor bedrooms, one of which the king slept in, and even older north wing are home to secret passages, original floorboards, glimpses of wattle and daub and other delightful features showing how the house has evolved over the centuries. A specially written guide encourages young (and old) explorers to follow the clues. We aim to make sure our prices are reasonable to give more people the opportunity to enjoy and appreciate this very special place.

Weobley is the largest and best preserved of the classic black and white villages of Herefordshire. It's also a very friendly and vibrant village and The One Show's 'Village of the Year 2017'. It has a fine traditional English pub (the Sal'), three excellent places to eat (which also do takeaways), a butcher, delicatessen, wholefood emporium and well-stocked village shop. There are lovely circular walks straight from the house.

It was a fascinating property in a beautiful village. We stayed with friends and there was plenty of room for all of us. The main extension was a fantastic living space and the older parts of the house were quirky and fabulous. We visited both of the local pubs and those with pets enjoyed the lovely garden.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2024
We are a group of 8 friends living in various parts of the UK who get together twice a year. The Throne is a lovely quirky house very well placed for walks directly from the property and excellent local restaurants. Lovely to be able use the generous table in the dining room when catering for ourselves.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2021
The house itself is beautiful, lovely garden, great location, only issue was there was no cleaning products to clean after ourselves, had to phone the owners to ask where to put our rubbish as the cleaners have not emptied the bins no where to put rubbish, some random person turned up one day watering the garden without checking if it was OK, some other random person turned up another time to take out the bin bags we got told to leave by the bins. Then on the last day of leaving, we are getting ready to leave it was only 3 minutes past 10 am a bunch of people turned up saying they were the cleaners. I was like it's only just gone 10am. They could have waited till we left before all arriving. Oh and the local pub is not great as the landlord is super rude and doesn't like people in his pub. The unicorn in seem much better
