"The cottage is in an idyllic setting with a beautiful garden and spectacular views across the countryside."
The cottage is comfortable, cosy, well and well equipped. It has everything you will need. Its central location enabled us to visit lots of NT places and market towns, most within an hours drive. If you enjoy walking there's no end the routes you can choose from. Hosts Beverley and Desmond made us feel very welcome and offered us plenty of suggestions and helpful advice making sure we got the most out of our holiday. Relaxing in their garden after a days sightseeing, watching the wildlife and chatting to Beverley and Desmond was a delight. A memorable holiday and one that we'll treasure.
Thank you both for taking the time in giving us such a lovely review it is most apricated, we would love to see you both again you will always be most welcome.

"The cottage was big enough for us and our cocker spaniel Ben."
The kitchen was stocked well. The fridge was a standard floor fridge with a small drop down lid compartment freezer section, (so no room for frozen goods). Beds were comfortable with lots of draw space in the bedroom. A walk in wardrobe area with plenty of extra hangers (although we had plenty with us). The bathroom with shower was a good size baring in mind the nature of the cottage roof. We were warm and cosy. Outside the grounds are stunning and it was a pleasure to be able to stoll around. Then the views.......fabulous.
We had a great time and able to run the dog on land adjacent to the cottage, so the need to always have to be travelling out was not an issue.
This made our holiday more comfortable and so relaxing, helped with a few warn suuny days. Thank you to our hosts.

One small thing…the back door lock needs attention
Also softer pillows on the beds would make it even more comfy.
That’s a really beautiful bedroom with a fabulously efficient shower .
Many thanks

Thank you Gillian for taking the time to comment, it is good to hear that you and Kier enjoyed a good stay, sorry to hear that the pillows were not soft enough, obviously we have to cater for all needs so sometimes it's hard to please everyone, however I will take your comment on board, also apologies for the door, if you had mentioned it we would have been more than happy to have sorted out the problem, as I always say to guests "If there is a problem just l knock on our door".

"This is an excellent base for enjoyable trips."
Attingham Park, Witley Court, Berrington Hall, Brockhampton Hall [a gem] and Croft Castle to name just a few and of course Clee Hill.
We loved the garden, as did Loki our cocker, who kept stealing Rufus's ball! The cottage was very comfortable and we had a happy time there. There are good eating places around like the Hopton Crown but I particularly recommend the Salwey Arms at Wooferton. I had the best Gammon steak I've eaten [and I'm 66] in the week. We enjoyed it so much that we went back on the Saturday for breakfast on the way home and my wife said she had the best Eggs Benedict, she had ever had. Beverley and Des were warm and welcoming hosts but never intrusive and we thank them for a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

This being Summer time the garden was in full bloom and was truly awash with colour, sweet scents and natural beauty. Thank you Beverly, Desmond and Rufus for everything.

The lounge area has two comfortable sofas and the kitchen is well equipped with good appliances. We cooked all our own meals apart from one, which was fish-and-chips from nearby Clee Hill (highly recommended), but there were several places to eat in the area. The bedroom is spacious with comfortable beds, good storage space and a modern ensuite bathroom. The garden is beautiful with squirrels and a wide variety of birds and affording lovely views across the countryside. We found the location ideal for exploring local towns and historic places, and nearby Wyre Forest has lots of waymarked walks. The owners, Beverley and Desmond, whose house is next door to the cottage, were very friendly and helpful but not intrusive. All-in-all a very enjoyable stay!

She also checked on us when there was a power cut and left us cake, fruit and milk on our arrival. Beds and shower where great, kitchen was a bit small but fine for 2 people especially as we ate out a lot. The location was great for days out, walking with the dog (Croft Castle, Ironbrige, Shrewsbury and Bridgenorth particularly) and found lots of dog friendly pubs in Hopton Wafers and Cleobury Mortimer (would recommend Hopton Crown and The Kings Arms).
