The original Queen Anne House (c 1700) burned to the ground in January 1999, leaving only the stone plinth enclosing the basement and the north wall. Donald Insall Associates, architects, were commissioned for the rebuild shortly after completing post fire restoration works at Windsor Castle. The present house was erected on the existing footprint, using salvaged materials from the site wherever possible including all the exterior brickwork but with modern cavity wall insulation behind. The house is classically symmetrical with four double aspect rooms on each of four floors, all opening from the central landings. On the raised ground floor, the four principal rooms open into one another, providing a peripheral circular route for entertaining. External doors lead into the garden to the south, east and west (main entrance ) at ground level. The garden was laid out 20 years ago and is now semi-naturalised, with mature trees, an orchard and lawns, water features and flower beds adjoining the house. The extensive outbuildings (over 9000 sq. ft.), from approximately 1650 to 1850, loosely form a series of courtyards enclosing lawned areas and bounded by brick walls and have enormous development potential.
The works were completed in December 2001; shortly afterwards the house won Restoration of the Year award from the Georgian Society and Restoration of the Century from Country Life magazine. It also figures in Marcus Binney's book 'In Search of the Perfect House' (500 best houses in GB and Ireland).
Eardisley Park occupies a wonderful semi elevated position commanding outstanding panoramic views over miles of unspoilt Herefordshire farmland and parts of the Wye Valley.
The village of Eardisley is just a mile away and has a local shop, public houses/restaurants, primary school, church and tennis club. The popular market towns of Ludlow and Leominster are easily accessible with the Cathedral City of Hereford just 15 miles away, all three having railway stations. Also just 11 miles distant is the renowned literary town of Hay-on-Wye.

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
