True hospitality. Very nice cottage in the beautiful grounds if the owners. Guests are welcomed to walk aroud the gardens and fields. Some benches are placed on the dyke which used to be the old railway track, with a fire pit. Just sit there with a cup of tea (or glass of wine) and enjoy the landscape. Very relaxing!

Fantastic accommodation in beautiful countryside. The Hop Barn is well-equipped and very spacious. Despite being quite cold outside it was very warm and cosy, so much so, we didnt need to use the wood burning stove. The owners have thought of everything you and your dog could need, including dog blankets and custom made partions to contain your dogRead more in certain areas. You can park you car very close to the front door, making unloading and loading very easy. The gardens and adjoining fields are beautiful and ideal for quick walks for your dog. Cant recommend this place highly enough. Hide

A lovely place for a relaxing stay. Spacious but also warm and comfortable with everything needed. Thoughtful touches included dog bowls, blankets and poo bags, plenty of kitchen equipment coat, towel hooks etc. The emperor sized bed will be much missed. The owners were on hand for help and advice and proved very welcoming hosts. Highly recommendedRead more. Location perfect for pleasant, tranquil rural walks.

Birgit and David were very friendly and welcoming and answered all of our questions. The barn was beautifully decorated for Christmas, making it feel extra special. It was comfortable and cosy, and we had one of our best Christmases there. Our dog absolutely loved the 22 acres of land where he could run around freely.

We had a lovely break at the Hop Barn. A lovely, homely cottage equipped with everything you need for a short break. Dogs (and us!) loved walking the fields. The grounds were gorgeous. Lovely pub just a 15-20 minute walk away but well worth it as the food was excellent. The village church is also worth visiting.

Hop Barn has everything you need for a relaxing break away. The gardens are beautiful and perfect for an exploring dog used to city life. The pub up the road did a great steak and ale pie. It is a hill to walk up to get to mind. The host has lots of walks printed and we used 3 of these for exploring the village and Cleobury Mortimer.

A beautiful cottage set is lovely grounds, We went for Christmas - arrived to a tastefully decorated living room. It is dog friendly - however we had to cut our holiday short because our dog doesn't do stairs and became anxious at night. It has a super king sized bed, with an electric blanket. Not that we used it. It is situated close to many placeRead mores. We visited Ludlow, the Wyre Forest and Highley - where we walked a section of the Seven Valley Way. Unfortunately it was very muddy.
