A lovely cottage that is well equipped and in a great location with plenty of walks straight from the cottage and Shrewsbury only 25 minutes away. The ultimate measure is that we plan to return and do some more walking and of course another Parkrun in Shrewsbury or Ludlow.

Amazing location and cottage. Very clean and extremely well equipped with everything of high quality. We had a lovely four days with our dog Maddie. Lots of walks from the doorstep and plenty of areas to visit further afield if you can drag yourself away from the cottage and village. Will be returning soon.

The cottage is comfortable, tastefully decorated and well equipped. The living room is cosy but might be a bit cramped for 4 people. Bedrooms are spacious and the bathroom/wet room is excellent. Parking a bit tight for a large car. The location and views cant be beaten: there are plenty of great walks straight from the door and its only a 20 minuteRead more walk into Church Stretton which had all the facilities we needed for our stay, including a well-stocked Co-op and a fabulous deli called Saxtons.
