The Colloquy has now been open for nearly five years and has been an exciting venue for a number of different parties. Small wedding parties, golden wedding celebrations, university re-unions and family get-togethers have made up most of our weekends. The weeks of summer 2009 were not quite so clement as the year before, however our guests made the most of the outdoor heated pool and the huge garden, as well as all the indoor facilities we have. We are now booking weekends well into 2010 with all of the summer holidays already booked. We can offer short breaks during the week for smaller groups and organise yoga teachers and perhaps even painting courses.
How does one begin to describe the ultimate in self-catering? No faded curtains and half finished decor. No compromise on room size. No problem with bathroom space or hot water. No concessions on modern communication facilities such as TVs, DVDs and Computers. The Colloquy provides the most comfortable, spacious and relaxing environment for unpretentious self-catering luxury, or for an exclusive corporate retreat. Each of our eight bedrooms has its own bathroom, some with roll top baths, some with showers and some with both.
All our walls are adorned with fantastic art - this is all produced by local artists and so invokes the atmosphere and features of Herefordshire and Welsh border countryside. The art is all for sale and we would encourage our guests to look around each and every room to see local talent at its best from the very figurative to large abstract canvasses. Prices and titles are listed in each room with a full bibliography in one of our welcome brochures. We take very little commission, so the prices are the artists and purchase can be arranged direct, or through us if preferred.
