Set on a peaceful country estate near the village of Chirbury, this charming cottage is an excellent base for families or friends looking to explore the surrounding countryside. In the village, you'll find a post office, a shop, and a beautiful 12th-century church. Venture 5 miles to the historic town of Montgomery to discover its dramatic medieval castle, or take a tour of the local vineyard (3.5 miles), known for its award-winning wines. For walkers and outdoor lovers, the Offa’s Dyke Path and the rolling landscapes of the Shropshire Hills National Landscape promise endless adventures. Day trips to nearby market towns are a must – Church Stretton (16.5 miles) boasts scenic walks and tempting cafes, while Shrewsbury (20 miles) boasts historic buildings, fascinating museums, and a vibrant mix of independent shops.
Inside, the heart of the house is the well-equipped, generously sized kitchen, which flows seamlessly into a stylish dining and lounge area. After this, venture into the bright and airy conservatory – the perfect spot for morning coffee or lazy afternoon chats. There’s also a separate, elegantly furnished sitting room with a welcoming wood burner, creating a cosy ambience on cooler evenings. Upstairs, you’ll find four light-filled bedrooms: a king-size with an en-suite, a versatile zip-and-link room that can be made up as a super-king-size or twin, another king-size room, and a smaller bedroom with handmade full-size bunk beds. A sparkling new family bathroom is also on this floor, while a handy cloakroom is located downstairs.
Outside, a long driveway leads to ample parking and sweeping lawns, complete with impressive Wellingtonia trees, where children and dogs can play. At the top of the garden, a hot tub awaits, positioned to soak up the rolling Shropshire countryside views, so enjoy a dip with a glass of fizz in hand. You’ll also find a fire pit for starlit evenings and a rear patio just off the kitchen for al fresco dining and summer BBQs.
