One of a collection of cottages on-site, each exuding its own distinctive style and charm, this inviting home is set amidst the idyllic landscapes of rural Shropshire near the banks of the River Severn. Packed full of original features such as exposed wooden beams and a deep inglenook fireplace hosting a cracking wood burner, enjoy a wonderful escape to the countryside with friends, family and up to three canine companions at this characterful home.

Inside, the lounge exudes a sense of history with exposed timber and the wood burner, creating an inviting atmosphere in which to sit back and catch up with loved ones on comfortable seating or watch your favourite shows on the TV/DVD player. The kitchen/diner is a sociable space for family meals, and there's a handy utility room alongside a wet room on the ground floor. At the end of the day, discover the three bedrooms, including one double and one twin on the first floor and an additional double on the ground floor. A bathroom with a shower over the bath completes the internal layout. Step outside to a delightful garden with a spacious patio area with comfortable seating, offering a perfect spot to unwind and soak in the natural surroundings with Rover by your side.

On-site, an 18th-century country inn graces the bank of the River Severn, offering year-round hospitality with lunches, evening meals, afternoon cream teas and a warm welcome to your four-legged friends. Ideal for avid anglers, you'll have the river's edge at your doorstep, or take riverside strolls that are perfect for hounds with energy to burn. The Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty begins 14 miles from home, where beautiful countryside awaits adventures with you and your faithful friends.

Lots of parking, beautiful countryside/river setting and a brilliant pub next door. The cottage itself is stunning with so much character and equipped with everything you need, such as plenty of cupboards and hangers and kitchen equipment. The rooms are spacious and the house is suitable for elderly people (there is a small step up to the kitchen) Read moreand dogs. The garden is dog proof for small dogs but not bigger dogs. A wonderful holiday for 6 of us and 3 dogs. Thank you. Hide

The Fishermans Retreat is in a super location on the river, Severn valley steam railway, a woodland park just up the hill and with a pub right next door. The cottage is comfortable with a great private outdoor space overlooking the river and ample parking. There is really no need to use the car during your stay. Just jump on the steam train which iRead mores an experience in itself. We visited the delightful Bridgnorth during our weekend stay. Hide

Met housekeeper Juilie who is friendly and helpful and there if needed. Enjoyed the stay which dogs also enjoyed. Two very nice dog friendly pubs The Ship next door and The Bulls Head in Chelmarsh with good food and dog treats. Nice views and walks beside the river severn and close to Severn Valley Railway with the station a few hundred yards away.

This cottage is ideally located between the River Severn and the Severn Valley Railway and with the added benefit of having a bedroom and shower room on the ground floor it was perfect for our party that included a less mobile individual. There are some lovely walks, a pub next door and the host was very helpful whenever we spoke to him.
