Garden party


The Macklin, Mansel Lacy, Herefordshire Price: £525,000 Agent: Knight Frank Tel: 01432 273 087



They say: Rural village house in an elevated setting overlooking orchards. Four bedrooms, one bathroom, a sitting room and a study combine period features with the comforts of modern living.



We say: One of the bedrooms is only accessible from the utility room and is a long way from the nearest downstairs loo; the other bedroom is tiny. However, aside from the lack of a second bathroom, the cottage is delightful and has a lovely garden.
