  She met us when we got to the beautiful property. Contained everything we needed. Everything was spotless and well thought out. Hot tub was a special treat for us. Lovely location surrounded by wonderful countryside, so peaceful. Pete took us for a tour of the farm with lovely views. The best property we have stayed in and hope to return next year. So much more still to see.

• "This was, without doubt, one of the best rental property experiences that we have ever had."

  Several days prior to arrival I contacted the owner with a few questions relating to our stay. Sarah’s response was very prompt and so very kind and helpful, going way over and above my expectations and helping me plan a surprise for our friends special birthday. The property itself is on a working sheep farm in a quiet and idyllic location, surrounded by beautiful Shropshire countryside. The Old Cart House is a converted farm building that has been lovingly restored by the owners with solid oak frames and high quality materials. Every detail of the interior has been thought about with their guests in mind - from comfortable beds and pillows, high quality bed linen and towels, large built-in wardrobes and a dressing table (with hairdryer) in both bedrooms, comfortable sofas, one of the best equipped rental property kitchens we have ever come across, plentiful sockets in every room, a lovely selection of games and books and 2 well appointed bath/shower rooms with plentiful hot water for 4 adults. The entire property was spotlessly clean throughout and everything very well maintained and in perfect working order (including the lovely hot tub in the garden which can be arranged at an extra cost directly with the owner). The property felt very private and was very peaceful (the local birds and sheep were pretty much the only sounds we heard for most of the weekend!). I cannot recommend this property highly enough. What started off as being a last minute booking ended up becoming a very special and memorable weekend and one that we will definitely want to repeat again in the future. A rare gem of a property and host!

  Ah thank u so much for your fantastic review we were humbled by such a lovely review glad you enjoy your weekend see you again very soon we aim for you to have the best break you can Property Owner

  A beautifully decorated and loved barn conversion in a lovely part of Shropshire, everything you need for a pleasant stay already inside the house.

  It was exactly as it was advertised. The accommodation was amazing and very comfortable and it was very difficult to say goodbye to such a lovely place. There were also plenty room outside to park your car and although the cottage was on the grounds of the owner, you had plenty of privacy. The owners, Sarah and Pete and their son little Owen were amazing and so kind and friendly. They made me feel very comfortable and were very welcoming. As if this wasn’t enough, I even got the chance to spend a few days with the farm animals and met the sheep, newly born lamb, two cats and two dogs which were all very friendly. Spending time with the lamb was a really special time and I learnt so much from Sarah and Pete and also managed to bottle-feed the lamb. I had such a nice time and felt really relaxed after spending a week at this cottage. Thank you to Sarah and Pete for providing such a beautiful and comfortable accommodation in such a great setting. Shops and pub are within a short drive. I cannot recommend this cottage enough. I am looking to book this cottage again within the next few months. Thank you.
