Property code: OC-93397

Get away from the stresses of daily life when you holiday at this farm which boasts panoramic views of the rustic countryside and the village of Sheinton. There’s so little light pollution that stargazing will be a cinch. During the daytime, you’re welcome to explore the 4-acre orchard and 16-acre pastures. There’s a brook nearby where birds, insects and other wildlife come to drink. You can use the deer hides to watch the wild deer grazing peacefully or visit the farm to say hello to the small herd of pygmy goats. There is plenty to keep you relaxed here but when you feel the need to get out and about, Much Wenlock (3 miles) is a beautiful medieval town that has plenty to offer. Not only is it full of interesting history (the modern Olympic Games are said to have been inspired by the 19th-century Wenlock Olympian Games), but there are plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants to keep you occupied too.

Sheltering in beautiful countryside, walk into this cosy pod that’s perfect for friends and families to relax with all your creature comforts. To your left is the kitchen area with all the equipment you need to rustle up a meal with local produce purchased on your travels. When ready, gather around the dining table for a leisurely meal and plan your holiday activities. There is a shared laundry in a separate barn. The open-plan living area with comfortable sofa and chairs is a lovely space to return to after a full day out exploring. Relax watching a film or your favourites on the Smart TV or peruse the magazines, books and local guides. If you fancy something more active, head over to the shared games room with table tennis and football table for evening entertainment. When ready to retire, enjoy a good night's sleep in one of the two bedrooms, choose from the double or twin bedroom. The stylish shower room is a great way to start the day with a walk-in shower and WC. Why not enjoy your breakfast in the garden with spectacular views of the Shropshire Hills and towards the Wrekin?

Outside, you can enjoy al fresco dining on the paved patio with a table, chairs, and charcoal BBQ, and to extend the evening relax by the fire pit to make the most of this inspiring countryside from sunrise to sunset. Soak away in the private hot tub whilst enjoying the sound of  nature. You are welcome to explore the 60-acre farmland with a private footpath to the brook leading across the paddock, where you might pass the goats and birds along the way.

Lovely pods and great for a group to book and enjoy. Beautiful views of Shropshire hills from the grounds. Our granddaughter loved helping to feed the two donkeys Mildred and Mabel, and interating with the goats. These things are great for children. The hot tubes are also an added bonus. Thank you so much, hope to be back with more of the family inRead more the future. Hide

Lovely place, beautiful environment. Cozy little pod that we enjoyed, especially with the hot tub on a rainy day! Perfect spot for anyone who loves hiking and learn a bit of history of a location.
