WELCOME TO HICKS FARM
A quiet livestock farm situated where the three counties of Shropshire, Herefordshire and Powys meet. Here the beautiful Marches landscape greets you as soon as you step outside the front door. Peacefully secluded in this idyllic unspoilt countryside our self catering properties; Orchard House and Rose Cottage are ideal for all generations.
Our aim at Hicks Farm Holidays is to help you have a relaxing, hassle-free holiday. That is why our accommodation has been carefully designed, decorated and equipped to make life easier for everyone. In addition, we are annually inspected by Visit Britain and have been awarded the Four Star rating.
Whether you are looking for a family holiday cottage or a venue for a "big house party" choosing the accommodation can often be a daunting prospect, so we have tried to provide as much detail as we can on our website but please do contact us if there are any questions we have left unanswered!
Everyone is welcome at Hicks Farm. Our properties have their own well-fenced private gardens which provide safe havens for both children and pets. The ground floor of Orchard House has been designed and furnished with the wheelchair user and hearing aid user in mind. All the hearing loops, emergency alarms and essential grab rails have been unobtrusively incorporated into the décor. The House and Cottage combined offer 21 bed spaces with 5 cots. The dining area in Orchard House will seat everyone from both properties and we can put you in touch with local outside caterers.
In the Pool Barn you will find our luxurious heated swimming pool, again, the changing room and toilet facilities are wheelchair user friendly, so pushchair friendly too! Parents with babies will also appreciate the baby changing table in one of the changing rooms. The swimming pool is a marvellous all weather facility. It is open all year round and is exclusively for guests staying on our farm.
Whatever you choose to do, help feed the farmyard animals, explore the farm, badger watch at sunset, play a game of snooker, relax in the swimming pool or simply enjoy a good book by the fire, we feel sure you will enjoy a truly relaxing stay here at Hicks Farm.
Please look through our website and if you have any questions or would like to check availability, either complete the contact form or simply give us a call.
Many of our guests say that our website does not do us justice. It is very difficult to capture in words and pictures the true essence of Hicks Farm. You cannot photograph the peace and quiet or the wonderful tranquillity of our surrounding landscape. Trust us, come and stay here, you will soon discover exactly what draws our guests back time and time again.
