About Brinsop Court

Geographically

Brinsop Court is in the hamlet of Brinsop, about 5 miles North West of the lovely old city of Hereford. To the West, we find the Welsh Borderlands and Marches.

This area is littered with fascinating history, lovely old black and white villages, such as Weobley, Pembridge, Eardisland, Eardisley and Almeley amongst market towns like no others, such as Leominster, Kington and Presteigne.

For breathtaking views try Hergest Ridge and Offa’s Dyke, or visit Hay-on-Wye and get to the gateway of The Breacon Beacons and the Black Mountains- it’s all so close!

Agriculturally

Immediately surrounding Brinsop Court you can freely enjoy a place not bothered by public footpaths, and be prepared to come across sheep, lambs, ponies, horses and the occasional tractor or combine.. this is a working farm.

Woodland

250 acres of woodland- most of it ancient, containing a huge variety of different species of Fauna and Flora. Enjoy!

Walks

The 4 Daughters of the owners all have a nominated walk. Follow the signs for Harriet, Alice, Molly or Florrie’s walks all together or individually to get the full benefit of your walking, outdoorsy time here at Brinsop. You are welcome to bring you dogs.
