1 / 24Sunburst Barn
Pencombe, Herefordshire
A sympathetically restored cartshed for five on a working cherry tree farm at Pencombe, with hand carved beams, a private fully enclosed garden, a warm water dog wash and three dogs welcome.
Sunburst Barn is a sympathetically restored cartshed set within the grounds of an established cherry tree farm on the fringes of Pencombe village, and three dogs are welcome. Guests are free to roam the farm's waymarked paths, with seating along the way to stop and enjoy the view, and a private, fully enclosed garden makes this a dog friendly barn to settle into.
After a wander among the cherry orchards, step into a stylish open-plan living space under the original hand carved beams. The lounge has soft lighting, colourful furnishings and a smart TV, underfloor heating warms the whole ground floor while the dogs doze, and the bespoke handmade kitchen, coffee machine and all, blends into the dining area.
Up the wooden stairs are a super king zip and link with an en-suite shower, a king-size with views onto the open countryside, a single, and a bathroom. The lounge doors give straight onto the private, fully enclosed garden, with a BBQ and seating for dining out. Back from a muddy walk, the shared utility room has a warm water dog wash area and a welly wash point, so the dogs come in clean.
Ledbury and Leominster are both within easy reach, famed for their Tudor style high streets and eclectic boutiques and curiosity shops, and Hay-on-Wye and Ludlow make days out for book and food lovers. For walking there are rolling meadows and hills to climb, with easy access to the Brecon Beacons, the Malverns or the Forest of Dean and plenty of ground for three dogs.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Sunburst Barn dog friendly?
Yes, Sunburst Barn welcomes up to three dogs. The barn has its own fully enclosed garden accessible through the lounge doors, and guests are also welcome to walk the working cherry farm, which has waymarked paths through the orchards with seats along the way.
Are dogs allowed at Sunburst Barn year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the owner directly to confirm availability for your dates. What we can say is that the setup — enclosed garden, farm tracks and orchard walks — is one that works well in any season.
What should I know before visiting Sunburst Barn with my dog?
Up to three dogs are welcome, which suits the property well given the space on offer — an enclosed garden, waymarked orchard paths and access across the farm. The interior has high-quality flooring but is described as fully expecting dogs coming in off a farm, so it's a practical as well as comfortable set-up. Nearby Bringsty Common, around five miles north near Bromyard, offers open unfenced grazing with soft going underfoot if you're looking for somewhere further afield to stretch legs.
