On arrival at this beautiful A-frame cottage, you’ll be greeted with stunning views across the Wye Valley and a couple of bottles of local ale from your host’s favourite brewery. A wall of glass opens up the living room to the valley beyond and the morning mist tumbling between forests and fells is quite a sight from this hilltop location. Come nightfall, you’re far from civilisation so the sky speckles with a blanket of stars – spot constellations from the warmth of the wood-fired hot tub outside or walk to Michelin-star restaurant The Whitebrook, fifteen minutes away. Wandering through the wildflower-strewn garden you’ll find a picnic bench and barbecue for hazy summer days outdoors and rambling walks across the countryside start from just outside the door. Back inside, we love the collection of holiday reads, tucked into bookshelves below the raised bed in the studio. Toys in the living room and bunkbeds in the second bedroom let you know this place is family-friendly too.

Exploring locally, you can take to the trails through the forest where if you’re lucky, you may even spot some wild boar and deer.

Rolling countryside as far as the eye can see and quaint villages tucked into the valleys of Monmouthshire on your doorstep – this converted stone barn is an idyllic getaway. It’s a six-minute drive to the centre of Raglan where you can explore castle ruins, pop in to one of the cosy pubs or stock up at the traditional butcher and the local village shop. Further afield you’ll find the charming market town of Monmouth a fifteen-minute drive away. The home is blissfully quiet, with nothing but the occasional bleat of sheep or whinny of a horse in the surrounding fields. Out here, away from it all, you can see the canopy of stars from the private garden. During the day, this spot is perfect for a family barbecue, with dining on the patio. Inside, it’s open-plan living made cosy with a wood-burning stove set in the old stone wall of the living room. Period features like the old timber frame and arrow-slit windows have been retained, showing off the age of the building. The Aga and Belfast sink in the kitchen keep that farmhouse feel, perfect when paired with farm-fresh produce from the hole-in-the-wall farm shop just down the road. 

Haybales & Horses

Sitting peacefully on the edge of the Forest of Dean, this home provides the perfect setting for a refreshing retreat. Outside, you can enjoy the views while soaking in the hot tub (available for an additional fee). There is also a barbecue and plenty of space for children and dogs to play safely. Inside, there is a wood-burning stove in the living room and two of the bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms – adding a wonderful sense of privacy. And when it comes to explorations further afield, follow hiking trails, visit local pubs or explore the nearby Wye Valley.

Light of the Forest

Rain Shower

With breathtaking panoramas from every vantage point, this home is a gem. You'll be able to enjoy the views from the private hot tub and garden – although our favourite is the glimpses of the River Severn and Old Severn Bridge from the main bedroom. There’s the all-important log burner for when the weather gets chillier, too. This home is set on a working dairy farm, and your host is happy to give you a tour of the farm – something the kids will probably adore. Just bear in mind, at certain times of the year, the farm can be busy. When you feel like exploring a little further afield, you can visit Chepstow Castle or Lydney in the Forest of Dean.

These luxurious shepherd’s huts are an excellent choice for a romantic retreat. This quirky home can be found in a secluded meadow on the edge of a natural wood, close to the ancient settlement of Penterry. There are stunning views to be discovered nearby, and you can relax and unwind amid the tranquillity of the Wye Valley. The bathroom, with a bathtub and separate shower, is in a separate shepherd’s hut, while the petite kitchen and bedroom are in a studio layout in the main hut. Space is limited, but the setting more than makes up for that.

Fenced Garden

Many barn conversions across the British countryside tend to be relatively small and cosy affairs, but this example in rural Gloucestershire is a comparative colossus with a wealth of social space and amenities.

The design inside lies on the rustic side of things, with exposed stonework and wooden ceiling beams to be spotted alongside a wood-burning stove, a clawfoot bathtub and an ornate bed frame in the master bedroom. That being said, there's a contemporary sheen where it matters, especially in the pastel bedrooms, sleek bathrooms and the kitchen complete with an Aga.

So how would you fill your time at the address? Well, when the weather permits, you can make the most of the large garden with a lawn big enough for games and a patio area for alfresco feasts. There's even a hot tub ready and waiting for a relaxing spot to pass the golden hour. If, however, grey clouds make an appearance at any point, don't fret – there's a snooker table inside, as well as another games room in the external former stables, that should keep guests entertained for a while.

In the local area, the town of Lydney is only eight minutes' drive away when you need supplies, while both Newport and Gloucester lie about forty-five minutes away in the car. There's a wide choice of natural attractions to be discovered nearby as well, ranging from the Forest of Dean and Puzzlewood to Clearwell Caves.

Secret Hills

With sweeping countryside views and a hot tub perfectly positioned for starlit soaks, this peaceful retreat is all about slowing down. Ideal for two, and surrounded by fields and footpaths, this shepherd's hut sits in the heart of a working dairy farm in the Wye Valley, just fifteen minutes from Chepstow. Inside, soft tones and natural textures create a calming space to unwind, whether you’re curled up by the wood-burning fire, cooking in the compact kitchen or stretched out on the king-size bed. Outside, the private deck is perfect for alfresco breakfasts and quiet evenings with the cows grazing nearby. Don’t leave without trying the farm’s creamy gelato and milkshakes.

Farm Fresh Living

Tucked into the hills near Chepstow and surrounded by a working dairy farm, this countryside escape blends rustic charm with easygoing luxury. Made up of a cosy shepherd's hut and an elegant farmhouse, it’s a thoughtful setup for families or friends. There are three bedrooms across the two buildings, with open-plan living spaces, soft linens, and warm, characterful design throughout. Spend your days walking local trails or exploring the Wye Valley, then return for long dinners, log fires, and starlit soaks in a hot tub. With farm-fresh treats on hand and views in every direction, this place is designed to help you fully switch off.

Rustic Luxe Retreat

With beautiful views, two private hot tubs and wood-burning fires, this home has everything you could need for a refreshing rural retreat. Consisting of two neighbouring homes, you’ll find plenty of space to stretch out and socialise. There is also an external games room, a snooker room and a large garden with a barbecue – perfect for warm weather days. From here, it’s a short walk to the nearest village, while the Forest of Dean is on your doorstep. It’s also a short drive to Cheltenham and Bath.


The Heart of the Forest

This comfortable apartment in Lydney is an excellent base for exploring the Forest of Dean and Gloucestershire. It’s on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, too – charming villages and stunning countryside await. The apartment is contemporary and cosy, with an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space at its heart. Staying here, you’ll have access to beautiful shared gardens with four ponds and delightful outdoor seating spots. Your four-legged friends can come too, so nobody has to miss out.

This delightful holiday home is the garden wing of a fabulous Italianate-style villa that dates back to around 1670. Now a comfortable and modern space, this home delights guests and proves to be the perfect base for exploring the nearby Forest of Dean. 

The villa has been a B&B for forty years, and the garden wing is now available for self-catered stays – it’s ideal for groups of friends or a couple of families getting together for a break. Spend your days out in the fresh air, and your evenings in the wood-beamed living room, playing board games and catching up. 

The Forest of Dean is just a short distance away – you can be at its heart in fifteen minutes. There’s so much to see and do, whether you’re a keen hiker, will be bringing your bikes, or are entertaining little ones. Puzzlewood is seven minutes away by car, and you might even recognise some parts of the Forest from TV and film. 

You can enjoy the great outdoors from the property itself, too. The villa boasts twenty acres of land and formal gardens, which are a delight to stroll through, as well as ponds and a pretty brook. Additionally, you’ll have your own private fenced garden – why not serve afternoon tea in the sunshine? 


The Brook's Babble

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

Nestled in Ruspidge in the heart of the Forest of Dean, this semi-detached cottage is the perfect base for exploring the stunning natural beauty of Gloucestershire. Inside, the home is fuss-free and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, while the garden provides a quiet sun-kissed spot for evening drinks. Ruspidge itself offers a selection of pubs, eateries, and shops, while the Forest of Dean promises a wealth of outdoor activities, including cycling, walking, and wildlife watching. With the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Cathedral city of Gloucester also within easy reach, this home offers something to suit all tastes.

Nestled on two acres of land in the Royal Forest of Dean, stepping into this Grade II-listed characterful lodge might feel like entering a time machine. Originally built by order of King Charles II himself, the antique furnishings and original oak beams hearken back to its history, but we're sure Charles didn't envision a swimming pool, hot tub, or cinema room. Those modern amenities feel very far away in the attic, accessed via a secret bookcase door – make yourself at home with a novel, and try not to get distracted by the views. Or, snuggle up by the fireplace. Nearby, there are plenty of walking trails to satisfy adults, little ones, and dogs alike, and for a more leisurely afternoon, it's just a short walk to the pub in Yorkley.

Forest King

Private Parking

Set on a working farm between Monmouth and Abergavenny, this home promises a peaceful escape surrounded by nature. If you don’t feel like going too far, you’ll find a natural swimming pond and 100 acres of land to roam here, along with the Offa's Dyke Path. If that’s not enough, hikers can also enjoy the trails of the Black Mountains, in the southeast corner of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Of course, you may prefer to kick back and relax during your stay – if so, the wood-fired hot tub, rolltop bath, and wood burner are ready to take your vacation relaxation to the next level. 

The Magic of Monmouthshire

This beautiful home sits within the grounds of a historic stately manor. It’s between Herefordshire and Monmouthshire, so you’ll be perfectly positioned to explore the Brecon Beacons and the area’s delightful towns and villages. French doors open to the terrace and garden, where you can play croquet and admire the deer park just beyond the estate’s gardens. Inside, the wood-burning stove keeps things cosy. It's a stylish and tranquil home that’s been meticulously renovated. We love the elegant tiling in the en-suite bathrooms. 

The Summer Lodge

Wine Cooler

With far-reaching countryside views, this stylish Gloucestershire barn conversion is the perfect retreat for families and friends. The large private garden is a great place to relax with its hot tub, paved patio complete with barbecue and alfresco dining table. Inside, the lofty open-plan living space is perfect for entertaining after a day of exploring the Severn Estuary. Located on the outskirts of the quaint village of Aust, the vibrant city of Bristol is reachable by car. Cribbs Causeway shopping mall with its variety of shops, cafes, restaurants and cinemas is also a short drive away.

The Cider Barn

Escape to the Gloucestershire countryside with this modern holiday home located in the quaint village of Longhope. Take in the views of the meadows and fields from the hot tub and patio while listening to the babbling brook below. Or keep the kids entertained with the table tennis set, as well as the arcade and board games in the games room. The open-plan lounge has a welcome wood-burning stove for cooler days and a modern kitchen, while the dining table overlooks the garden and vistas. Perfectly located with a convenience shop, bakery and pub within walking distance, this Forest of Dean location means there’s plenty to see and do in the locale.

Brook Retreat

Delight in this enchanting castle-inspired holiday retreat that invites cherished moments for romantics, dog-lovers and adventurers alike. Notably, it distinctively stands as a guard at a cherished gated entrance to the Kentchurch Estate. Across three captivating bedrooms, each hosting an en-suite bathroom, warmth and elegant simplicity prevail. An inviting open-plan kitchen and living area grace the top floor, offering a coveted spot to revel in culinary adventures or restful companionship. A bounty of natural beauty awaits to be admired from the generous roof terrace — when day gives way to evening, toast to bewitching views of nearby Wales. Wander no further than footsteps away for a relaxing pub visit or explore at leisure the lush labyrinthine lanes connecting you to the broader Herefordshire countryside. Sprawling across private grounds, including an enclosed garden and terrace, lay your stakes and unwind amidst your temporary kingdom on the border of England and Wales.

Lower Lodge

Single-Level Home

Nestled in the grounds of the owner’s home, in the peaceful village of Stroat, this home is perfect for a couple’s getaway to the country. With far-reaching views from the private garden and a cosy hot tub, ideal for soaking tired muscles after a day exploring the great outdoors, this home ticks a lot of holiday boxes. Location-wise, you’ll find hiking and cycling routes from your doorstep, the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within easy reach, and the charming town of Chepstow waiting to be explored – there’s something for everyone here. 

Gloucestershire Gaze

Get off the beaten track at this remote retreat set deep within the Herefordshire countryside, close to the Welsh border. Originally the farm's dairy, it's been lovingly converted from a derelict outbuilding to stylish home from home in just a few short years.

Inside, discover a cute contemporary farmhouse style, with beautiful natural stone flooring, a sleek kitchen and an inviting seating area placed within warming distance of the wood burner.

Step through to the bedroom, where you'll find a comfortable bed with a skylight above, perfect for stargazing, and an elegant freestanding bathtub for indulgent evening pampering sessions.

The star of the show has got to be the wood-fired hot tub, with views across to the Monnow Valley. Spend your days hiking through the hills with your dogs, before hosing them down at the outside tap and jumping into the warm water – we can't help but feel that the dog's getting the raw end of the deal here.

Speaking of walks, there are plenty of public footpaths that pass across the farm, with your hosts able to provide OS maps and walking books should you need them. If you want to venture further afield, why not head up the Skirrid, Sugar Loaf and Black Mountains – all viewable from the garden.

Tucked away in a valley at the heart of the Black Mountains, this sprawling home is a dreamy countryside escape. The home is split between an old farmhouse, a cottage, and a studio-style barn, making it a marvellous choice for group getaways. It’s in a stunning location and offers absolute peace and quiet, as well as privacy. If you’re looking to go off-grid and surround yourself with nature, you’ll love this home. 

The farmhouse is as traditional as they come, with wood beams and a roaring fireplace. In the mornings, cook hearty breakfasts on the AGA while enjoying the outstanding views of the valley from the kitchen window. From almost every angle here, the views captivate. 

Perhaps you’ll lace up your boots and head out on a nature walk. There’s an acre of woodland on the 40-acre farm, as well as a stretch of river for you to paddle in. There’s direct access to the Brecon Beacons National Park from the back of the farmhouse, so you won’t run out of hiking or cycling routes. 

When you return after a day exploring the Great Outdoors, you’ll be glad of the mountain spring water hot tub. Fire it up and soak your aching muscles, then spend the rest of the evening playing board games in front of the fire. 

The nearest pub is a fifteen-minute drive, and the cafes and bookshops of Hay-on-Wye are twenty-three minutes away. It may feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere, but you can grab a pint or a slice of cake easily enough. Perfection. 


Serenity in the Black Mountains

Baby Bath

If you’re looking for a peaceful escape to the Brecon Beacons with a few luxuries thrown in, this is the cottage for you. Set within 12 acres of estate grounds, there are plenty of walks for dogs and humans alike. If you’re seriously into your hiking, then the trails right from the cottage’s front door into the peaks of the Brecon Beacons (including Pen Y Fan) won’t disappoint. For the more sedate option, follow the flat canal path into the charming town of Brecon for cafés and shops. On returning, treat yourself to a complimentary massage at The Treatment Studio in the estate. The cottage itself radiates history from its old stone walls and low, timber-beamed ceilings. A little library of books and wood-burner in the living room adds to that away-from-it-all feeling. In the kitchen and living room, the flagstone floor is heated underfoot so there’s no sacrificing comfort for aesthetics here. Upstairs, the master bedroom comes with a glorious sleigh bed to send you off to sleep.

Even before you enter, it’s clear that there’s something special about Faerie World. The high position of the cottage gives a heavenly view of the stream below, and you can hear the babbling water from the terrace, which is itself surrounded by flowers, and makes you feel like you’re in a fairytale. Once inside, the living room and bedroom don’t disappoint. The bedroom in particular, with its Farrow & Ball colours, stands out. The kitchen doesn’t have the same aesthetic charm, but that’s a small gripe, and shouldn't give you any cause for concern.

Faerie World

Safe

This home is beyond characterful, inside and out. Dating back to 1880, the cottage is not only filled with historic charm but it packs a serious punch with its style and design. Once you've taken in the glorious facade, settle into a vibrant, warm, and artfully eclectic lounge. The kitchen has a contemporary farmhouse feel, and the rustic dining table is a stylish space to serve all your meals. The bedrooms are rich and luxe, and practically come with their own art galleries - filled with pictures and paintings. You'll be based on the outskirts of the Mendip Hills, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Pack your walking boots and a few good books for stunning hikes and picnics in the countryside. This striking home is a truly unique space in Somerset. Whether you're relaxing in the home or exploring the grounds, the view will be a knockout.

Paints & Brush

Welcome to this charming sanctuary nestled in the quaint village of Preston on Stour. Be enchanted by this bewitching 16th-century cottage, a picture-perfect fusion of history and modernity. Discover romantic adventures and Shakespearian escapes in the idyllic Warwickshire countryside. Bask in the luxurious warmth of a rustic lounge with a flickering fireplace and get lost in time exploring Stratford-upon-Avon's rich history. Every corner is outfitted to pamper you: an olive-green sofa perfect for relaxation, a four-poster bed ensuring serenity and golden slumber, a peaceful garden offering mesmerizing views of the village life. The cottage dazzles with character amidst original timbers, polished flagstones and vibrant colours. Delight your senses with home-cooked meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen, indulge in spa-inspired showers, or simply gaze into the tranquility of the surroundings from the comfort of your historic hideaway.

Shakespeare & Juliet

Staying in this home is like stepping into a scene from an Austen novel – we can just picture Emma Woodhouse wandering the grounds. Corniced ceilings, antique furniture, country views – there's so much character in this Grade II historic building. The home is part of a grand country estate in Wiltshire, but you'll feel as if you have the whole place to yourself in this private south wing. With the living room’s ample seating in front of the fire and the charming wooden breakfast table, you will be equally comfortable drinking tea or wine in elegance. Make sure to stop by a farm shop on the way to cook up a delicious meal in the kitchen or pre-order fresh or frozen meals to make your stay even easier. Take walks in the gorgeous landscaped gardens, stroll over the bridge on the water, and as night falls gather round the fire pit with drinks. You could spend all day at this country estate, but there's plenty to see in the local area too. You're just a six-minute drive from Stonehenge, and it's worth travelling to Salisbury to visit the historic cathedral and wander the cobbled streets. After a busy day, return home to decadent bedrooms and doze off on a beautifully handmade mattress – the very same furnish the Royal Family's residences.

Hartfield

This delightful holiday home can be found on an equine stud farm in the quaint village of Birdwood. Perfect for a rural escape, it’s close to the Cotswolds and the beautiful countryside of Gloucestershire. You’ll also be just a short drive from Gloucester, where you can shop, dine out, and visit the stunning cathedral. The stylish home features an attractive open-plan living and dining space, with a well-equipped, modern kitchen. There are two gardens, one with a front patio for dining in warmer months. Best of all, there’s a hot tub, ideal after a hike. 

Birdwood Hideaway

With a gothic spin, this stone-built cottage has become a Worcester favourite for a unique, romantic trip. Tiny but beautiful, it's bursting with period charm and features arched windows, exposed timbers, a statement fireplace and a luxurious clawfoot tub alongside quirky decorative touches. Outside, near a stream, seating allows for alfresco meals and sunset drinks in the hot tub, and the on-site orchard is ripe for fruit picking. Your host can also arrange for a private chef or measures to take the weekend to the next level.

The Briar Rose

Fenced Property

Overlooking the Wye Valley and the Brecon Beacons beyond, this Georgian gem offers a blend of elegance and comfort. You’ll be greeted by a fusion of grandeur and charm, with chandeliers, antiques, and artwork hinting at the home's history. Outside, there’s a garden with far-reaching views, an alfresco dining area, and a hot tub. This home is split between the main house and coach house, ensuring space and privacy for every guest. You’ll be a short drive from Ross-on-Wye and close to the Forest of Dean. 

The Peacock House

Umbrellas

Slap bang in the national reserve of Malvern Hills, this collection of barns is based in an official Area of Outstanding National Beauty, and the home itself isn't far off that description, too. With vast arched glass windows, cool and contemporary spaces filled with natural light, original wooden beams everywhere, and an indoor pool so luxurious it belongs in a Bond villain's home, you'll want to spend your whole trip at this retreat. The lounge has sweeping views for when you want to relax with a film between glances at the stars, and the dining space is the perfect place to serve an elegant dinner spread or a lazy round of coffees. Explore the national reserve and its diverse landscape on your doorstep, and take a hike to Midsummer Hill - a walk or quick drive away. Bathe in luxury in either the huge shower or the sleek bathtub - the best way to wake up on a getaway.

Around The Paddock

Escape to this idyllic Herefordshire retreat, perched on top of a hill beside an iron-age fort and offering breathtaking countryside vistas. Perfect for a multi-generational family stay (with two dogs in tow), alongside the main barn, there's a smaller stone barn (connected on the first floor) offering a snug, two further bedrooms and a well-equipped playroom. If you can lure yourselves from the enclosed private garden, you're just a five-minute drive from the historic market town of Bromyard with delicatessens, butchers and pubs for a taste of county life. 

The Vintage Farmhouse

Staying in this charming Cotswolds cottage can make you feel like you’re a character from a Jane Austen novel. Located in a wonderfully secluded part of Wiltshire and surrounded by sprawling fields and farm animals, this home is a rural sanctuary of calm. French doors merge the comfortable living room with the natural light and country air of the outdoors – it's the perfect spot for relaxing with a good book, playing games or rustling up a home-cooked meal while socialising with friends and family. Grab a glass of your favourite and sit out on the garden patio, which overlooks picturesque views of the verdant valley. In the mood for exploring? This location gives you easy access to countless walking trails, and when you’re not wandering the fields or following footpaths, there’s a host of traditional pubs and local restaurants to take your fancy. While you’re here, it’s worth visiting the nearby towns of Malmesbury and Tetbury – and check your calendar, maybe your stay overlaps with the famed Badmiton Horse Trials or Tetbury Woolsack Race. 

Penny-Farthing

Bathrobes

Enjoy a romantic stay at this handsome barn conversion, lying at the end of a track, on a family-run arable farm, surrounded by fields – this is a sublime retreat. Relax with a glass of bubbly in the private hot tub with its idyllic views through the farm to the fields beyond (your lovely hosts provide bathrobes and slippers), then savour a barbecue lunch in the sun. It's also the perfect spot to do a bit of stargazing when the night skies are clear and full of sparkling diamonds. Beautiful bi-fold doors provide plenty of light inside this single-level barn, which was once a grain store. We love the gorgeous stone floor and exposed wooden roof beams framing the high ceiling. A fresh colour scheme of pale cream, yellows and greys complement the rustic yet stylish design. If you can tear yourself away from this love nest, there's plenty to explore. Go for a walk to the historic riverside village of Bidford-on-Avon, sixteen minutes on foot, where you'll find an array of charming pubs, restaurants, shops, and a picturesque church built in 1250. Or visit Shakespeare's Stratford-upon-Avon, around a twenty-five-minute drive, while stunning Warwick Castle is a few minutes more in the car. The magnificent Cotswolds are on your doorstep too – Hidcote Manor Garden, near Chipping Campden, just over a fifteen-minute ride, which has one of Britain's most influential Arts and Crafts gardens.

Shakespearean Elegance

Set within a 1,600-acre farm, this renovated stable is a slice of peace and a pop of colour in the Cotswold countryside. When you arrive you'll be greeted by a picture-perfect dream cottage, filled with the original oak beams, chic country flair, and a pretty master bedroom with a view and French doors into the garden. Your nearest neighbours are another stable, so the home is perfect for switching off all communication and settling in for a stay of walking, reading, and eating. The open-plan kitchen and lounge space is ideal for cooking together, as well as a comfy sofa in front of a log-burner, perfect for cuddling up after a day exploring. On sunny days, we love opening the French doors and letting in the fresh air, before wine and nibbles on the south-facing patio. If it gets cold, you can light the fire pit - which is also great for roasting marshmallows. The huge farm is open for exploring, with walks over fields, as well as to the farm's shop, where we love to stock up on food produced on the home's doorstep. The spot is in an excellent location for exploring some of the area’s most picturesque villages, while Cirencester and its smarter restaurants are only a 20-minute drive away.

This barn conversion in deepest Herefordshire is bursting with rural authenticity. Not only is the property located close to a peaceful nature reserve complete with lakes, but it's also been Grade-II listed to protect its historical importance. However, despite this impressive pedigree, the home's interior is pretty contemporary, with a sleek kitchen, four-poster bedrooms and tiled bathrooms sitting quite comfortably underneath the original wooden ceiling beams. Out the front, there's a private garden with seating and views of hills and forests, but there's also an additional courtyard to the back that's shared with neighbours. If gazing out at the countryside vista inspires you to explore this beautiful county, you're well-placed for bird-spotting and long rambles, perhaps finished with a meal at The Stagg Inn, a well-praised gastropub that sits no more than two minute's walk from your front door.
