Getting Here
What 3 words locates our gate at "goggle rooster scripted"
SatNav or Google Maps to HR2 0SP will take you to the bottom of the tarmac lane, or even further as they continue to improve. Turn up the lane and the Slade is the first (and only) house on the left over the top of the rise. Using street view on maps you can actually follow the lane right up to our gate.
If you don't have any navigational aids, then coming from the Hereford direction turn right at the crossroads immediately after entering the village of Peterchurch (sign for Stockley Hill). You will then pass Crossways (two roads on your left) and Wellbrookside on your right (note that whatever the national database may say, we are NOT on Wellbrookside). Shortly afterwards turn right up an unmarked tarmac lane, the same as SatNave might have taken you to. Go to the top of the rise, over the speed bumps, and pass a bungalow (Sunnybank) on your right. The Slade is immediately afterwards on your left through the named gate, which may need to be opened. (A note about our dog Danny. If he's heard you coming he will be longing to greet you and given the chance - i.e. if you open the gate - will jump up on your car to say hello. But if he's out, someone will be in, so best to wait until he's restrained. He will come say hello once you're safely out of the car - or not, if you've told us you don't like dogs).
If you get lost, many folks in the village will set you right, or you can ring us and someone will come and rescue you. And don't worry - that is no problem - you won't be the first, or even the twenty-first.
To give you some idea of the distance, we are about 3 hours drive from London, depending on traffic and about 3 from Manchester. You can avoid the jams in Gloucester or Worcester by going round, though trying to get past Bristol on the motorway at many times during the day in any direction is almost a guarantee of delay. There are often extensive roadworks on the M42, but the M50 is usually pretty good.
