• "We had a lovely stay at the Stables."

  It had no WI-FI which was a problem. With being disabled, as I can't walk very far, we had no contact in case of an emergency. Other than that it was lovely.

• "Comfortable accommodation for our weekend stay."

  Could do with some comfy outdoor seating for the lovely garden. A folder for accommodation and local information would help greatly. Also feel should know in advance of stay that no WiFi and limited phone signal...even as "oldies" we still assume we could Google the local area once there! However lovely rural location on a working farm and a trip to Ludlow was delightful.

• "We had a lovely time staying in this very comfortable cottage on a working farm, visiting the beautiful Shropshire hills and other local places."

  The enclosed garden was good for our dog, and we enjoyed sitting in the sun in the garden on some of the evenings. The downstairs is particularly spacious, and the kitchen well equipped, which we appreciated as we like cooking. We walked from the house to Stokesay castle and some of us cycled to Ludlow. It was an ideal place for our family get together.

• "The Stables were absolutely amazing, comfort, cleanliness, hosts a delight."

  It would be appreciated if a handrail could be installed in the shower for those like myself are a little unsteady on our legs, but otherwise everything was perfect and the dogs loved the enclosed garden and field to run around in. Many thanks from Jennifer (mum) Julian (son) and eight paws of Rosie and Kenya our two dogs.

• "This was our third stay at The Stables, and, we will be booking for next year."

  We all (including our two German Shepherd dogs) love the space and comfort of the cottage, the very secure garden (big enough to allow ball play) and the friendliness , and helpfulness of the owners. It’s location is calm and peaceful with lots of good walks, yet it’s not too far away from centres of interest like Ludlow, or if you want a drive, it’s lovely countryside to such as Much Wenlock. Highly recommended, highly delighted.

  It is very spacious, comfortable and peaceful. The 2 gardens are safe for children and dogs, with lots of space. We stayed whilst lambing was going on and the farmer (owner) invited my granddaughter to see the lambs even showing her how to feed the lambs. It’s a real home from home set in spectacular countryside. The owners live next door and are really nice. You won’t regret booking this property

• "Lovely, comfortable and well equipped cottage."

  Good walks from the door. Owner invited us to see his ewes and their new lambs, which we all really enjoyed. Information about recycling bins and what to do with used linen would have been useful, but the owner was on hand to answer any questions. We were very happy with large downstairs shower, but some guests may like to know that there was not a bath, as per description. Thoroughly enjoyable weekend, wish it had been longer.

• "Lovely place, perfect for us, location spot on."

  Our arrival had been miss placed, so we had to leave and come back later as we couldn't get in and couldn't reach anyone via phone. Lovely owner apologised. I would suggest that the listing on the website needs updated, as shows a bath in the property. It's been replaced with a walk in shower, which whilst a very good shower, it wasn't ideal for using with my youngest with a disability. Fully enclosed garden area very useful should we return with our dog. 2 resident dogs on the farm gorgeous! No instructions regarding rubbish, or used towels and bedding, so we hope we left everything in an acceptable way. One thing we noted was how concealed the entrance to the farm is, even the 'hay for sale' sign was only visible when 'ontop' of the turning......just a thought if owners wanted to increase visibility for sales. Overall, a lovely property, friendly owners and dogs, property warm and inviting. Thank you, we will return.

• "Charlie was a very friendly, helpful host."

  The Cottage was well equipped and comfortable, the garden was a bonus being secure and large enough for our two German shepherd puppies, and despite it being a working farm, we were given access to a field for exercise- bonus. The location was central to exploring the Shropshire countryside and local towns and villages. We liked it so much we intend to book for next year.

  The only very minor comment to make is that it's not easy to spot the entrance to Park Farm whilst travelling on the bust A49. I'm afraid I missed it a couple of times and had to turn around and re-traced my steps - but that might just be me.

• "The garden was particularly helpful with the dogs."

  The owners were very accommodating - they were perfectly happy for us to alter the week we were staying, when my husband's work retracted permission for his original annual leave. There was a stair gate permanently in for the downstairs, which was helpful as it allowed my 2 year old free movement in the ground floor area. The upstairs does have sloping roof areas in a few of the bedrooms, which is difficult if you're tall. There is also a limited amount of cupboard space and no full length wardrobe space (though there is half length). The downstairs bedroom was very big and spacious and has a number of wardrobes, so we hung everything full length of everyone's there. Biscuits were left, which was a nice touch and a few other essentials.

  As this is one of our criteria, we were therefore quite surprised, and a little disappointed, that it was near to a busy main road.

  The property is very spacious with excellent facilities and represents excellent value for money. The property is ideally situated for visiting areas of Shropshire, Worcestershire and Herefordshire and is based between Craven Arms and Ludlow on a farm bordering the A49 road.

The local supermarket is 2 miles away and the local public house, The Appletree, is short distance away.
