Lovely cottage in a beautiful location. Perfect for switching off. Pub 1.5 miles away and very nice. Some lovely walking straight from the cottage. Perfect for dogs with enclosed garden and lovely walks through the fields. Visited Ludlow (40 mins) and Ironbridge (50 mins) both lovely. The nearest town in Church Stretton with shops and supermarket. Read moreThis is about 15 mins away (by car) over the Long Mynd Hills which is not a drive for the feint hearted but very scenic.

We were fortunate to have superb weather for the week, but, whatever the weather, it was a lovely holiday cottage with a beautiful view. Once we found it (What.3.words was very useful), and we received our Tesco delivery we were able to settle in for the week. Thank you for the welcome goods, which included a very welcome home made cake. Plenty to Read moredo on site with our dog, and much to choose from in the area. Decent wifi for those who need it.

Beautiful cottage with fantastic views. Clare and Adrian were very welcoming, and it's lovely to find somewhere that actually welcomes dogs rather than just tolerating them. There were lots of walks in the area, which were needed to burn off the calories from the delicious cake in the welcome pack.
