Location & Description

The Orchard is located along a premier private residential cul-de sac tucked away close to the centre of Ledbury.

The cities of Hereford, Worcester and Gloucester are all approximately 16 miles distant with the M50 motorway available approximately 4 miles to the south of the town.

Believed to date back to the late 1800s, The Orchard is a substantial detached Victorian home situated in South Parade, one of Ledbury's most highly desirable and admired residential areas.
