Enjoying a secluded and tranquil location in a stunning part of Shropshire, this idyllic wooden pod makes a romantic hideaway for couples seeking a relaxing retreat in glorious surroundings. Offering cosy accommodation for two guests, there’s also plenty of space for a canine friend to come along and help you explore the magical Shropshire Hills National Landscape. Set on a hillside and overlooking the Brook Cound – a stream leading to the River Severn – this delightful, elevated retreat is one of a pair of properties offering a fantastic, rustic glamping experience ideal for walkers, nature lovers and cyclists discovering The Marches.
Situated on a tranquil site accessed via a bridge over the babbling stream, a flight of external steps leads up to this charming pod. Inside, the stylishly arranged and welcoming open-plan living space features a cosy double bed, a Smart TV, a seating area and a well-appointed kitchenette with a good range of useful equipment. There’s also an invigorating shower room. Outside the front of the pod, the decked balcony offers the perfect spot for sitting back with a morning coffee or a drink in the evening while enjoying the elevated views over the surrounding hills. Heading down into the field which has plenty of space for your dog to run about, a picnic table sits beneath the pergola by the stream, perfect for alfresco dining on a summer’s afternoon.
The historic market town of Church Stretton is to the south (3.5 miles), with a welcoming choice of great places to eat and drink alongside England’s second highest golf course. The Long Mynd (4 miles) is a popular spot for gliding, and this whole area offers miles of spellbinding walks to enjoy with your four-pawed friend. The walk to The Lawley (2 miles) has stunning views of the unforgettable Shropshire Hills.
