Penrhos Court

(Herefordshire, U.K.)

Penrhos is unique - by any sense of the word. First built in 1280 when Edward I King of England, came down the hill, past Penrhos, and took Kington away from the Welsh. Penrhos has somehow survived, by pure chance, for more than seven hundred years as a farm on the border of Herefordshire and Wales.

Now, after many years of devoted work by the owners, repairing and rebuilding it emerges as the most delightful set of buildings that you could find anywhere. There are three periods to the main house, the great medieval Cruck hall with stone flag floors, a snug corner with a roaring log fire, and an Elizabethan wing with vast oak beams. The house looks out on a farm pond humming and blooming with life.

Hardly touched by modern life Penrhos is a gem of an old manor farm. Buried in the half-tamed, border countryside between England and Wales it retains the mystic of it's history - a part of England just as it has been for hundreds of years.
