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.
