Step into a slice of history with this delightful two-bedroom home, once lived in by the Custodian of Ludlow Castle and now a dog-friendly retreat nestled within the grounds of the castle estate. Just 150 metres from the majestic medieval stronghold, this unique holiday base has a fully enclosed private garden and places you and your loyal hound in the heart of one of England's most picturesque market towns.
Inside, this attractive mid-terrace cottage is full of light and charm, blending period features such as sash windows and panelled doors with all the modern comforts you need. Kick off muddy boots and hang up the lead in the hallway before heading into the lounge. There’s a separate dining room for laid-back meals, complete with a second sofa, while the contemporary kitchen leads straight out to the garden. Upstairs, the king-size bedroom and twin room are bright, peaceful spaces to recharge, while the spacious bathroom awaits for a soak at the end of the day. Outside, the enclosed garden is a real bonus for dog owners, with a secure lawn for a game of fetch, plus a patio with outdoor furniture for al fresco evenings. Fire up the BBQ, pour a drink, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings while your faithful companion stretches out beside you. Parking is no problem here either, where a reserved space awaits you within the Ludlow Castle car park.
Ludlow is a dream for walkers, history buffs and foodies alike, with its grand architecture, renowned food festivals and independent shops. Explore the lively market 300 metres away, then enjoy a tail-wagging stroll along the River Teme or join the Mortimer Trail, 2 miles from your door. The Shropshire Hills begin 10 miles away with miles of open space for energic hounds to let off steam.
