  • Charming Grade II listed town house
  • Perfectly located set within a medieval square in the centre of historic Ludlow
  • Within easy walking distance of the town’s castle, array of local shops, and excellent restaurants
Property code: 79260

Grade II listed town house in a charming cobbled square, with beautiful views from the upper floors, the perfect base to enjoy the many festivals and events Ludlow has to offer.

Embrace the heritage and festival culture of the vibrant Shropshire town of Ludlow, soaking up the atmosphere with man’s best friend in tow. Hidden within a medieval cobbled square, this Grade-II listed property is bursting with character and traditional charm, offering cosy sleeping spots for four humans and two hounds.

Boasting elegant interiors with exposed beams and wonky floors, this four-storey house will delight guests of all ages. Climb the quirky front steps using the handrails disguised as domestic pets, and enter the light-filled hallway ready to relax in style. The first floor is home to a comfortable lounge complete with inspiring views and a fabulous kitchen tailor-made for preparing family feasts. Crack open the bubbly and perch at the breakfast bar or around the dining table, slipping Rover a tasty morsel to keep him satisfied. Bedtime is a treat thanks to the gorgeous double bedroom on the second floor, which has a handy en-suite shower room. There’s also a separate shower room, and the final bedroom is a pretty twin room upstairs in the eaves of the house, just beware of reduced head height! There is no outside space, but Linney Riverside Park is within 0.5 miles for stretching Fido’s legs, and you’ll receive a parking permit for unallocated street parking for one car.

Lose yourself amongst the bustling streets and marvellous architecture, sampling local fare from the friendly restaurants, pubs and cafes scattered throughout the town. Pad along the banks of the River Teme, visit Ludlow Castle and explore the ancient church which attracts visitors year upon year. Further afield, keen walkers can challenge themselves to a scenic ramble along the Mary Webb Trail or the Shropshire Way, and leave no stick unfetched in Mortimer Forest 3 miles away before pausing for a picnic with a view.

Perfect location, lovely and clean and quiet, even given the close proximity to local businesses. Ideal location to explore the beautiful town with its castle, historic pubs, excellent cafes and restaurants, museum, and independent shops.

We loved our stay. Perfect location, a super-clean bolt-hole in town. VERY confortable beds, lovely sofas & sitting area, nice views. I would definitely recommend to a friend. I would mention the bells of St. Lawerence though!

The house is gorgeous and full of character. The floors were uneven and there are two flights of stairs, which might put some people off, but for us (a party of four in our 60s), it only added to the charm . Ludlow is a gorgeous town full of welcoming pubs. We didn't manage to visit all of them so might be back :)

Blue Trousers House is a charming property set over 3 floors in a charming little cobbled 'square' slap bang in the historic middle of Ludlow, nothing is more than a few yards away. The house is clean and comfortable and stocked with all you should need if you fancy a bit of self catering, but why would you in Ludlow? Dogs welcome, like everywhere Read morein Ludlow. Reasonably priced. Parking permit for nearby red zone areas. Highly recommended. Have stayed twice, already thinking about third stay. Hide

We enjoyed the cottage which being in a very old building was rather quirky. It was in the perfect location in the centre of Ludlow near the market and the castle. There were several good pubs and lovely places to eat in the town. Ludlow itself is the perfect place to explore the interesting surrounding area.

Loved the place. Location was exceptional - in the middle of everything. Being able to park in the red zone helped and we always managed to get a spot. The cottage is fab - just needs a bit of love in places but overall well impressed and it was perfect for our romantic stay. Would go back.

Loved the location, property presented well. Shame that sash window cords were all broken and that the extracts were also out of action. Hopefully will have been fixed for the next guest. I marked comfort down because we couldn't open the windows and the weather was hot. Would book again.

Excellent location, very clean and comfortable, made for a lovely break in Ludlow. Car parking with permit caused no problems and only five minutes walk from location of cottage. Although right in the centre of everything you would want we found it surprisingly quiet. Overall a very enjoyable stay and would recommend it.
