  • "Wow - We LOVED our stay at the Stokesay."

    Everything was amazing. From the bed, the facilities (kitchen had everything we needed and more), the generous welcome pack, shower pressure and cleanliness. The location in beautiful Ludlow couldn't be bettered. Even the neighbors were lovely. We were sad to leave and can't wait to return. A special shout out to our wonderful host Helena. Exceptional service - genuine, helpful and kind. Thank you so much. We were very sad to leave.

  • "STUNNING PROPERTY."

    Couldn't fault it. Everything was to a high standard, 2 minute walk into the centre of town. The owner HELENA was only a phone call away if you needed her. Underground car park was great. Would highly recommend this property. Will definitely return.

  • "We had a fabulous holiday staying at The Stokesay."

    The house is super warm, clean, comfortable and stylish. The central location is so convenient for the town and the underground parking space is a real plus. You can park and forget about your car. We only used ours twice during our stay. Steeple Mews is also very quiet and peaceful despite being right in the middle of town. The only sound we heard was the delightful church bells and clock. Helena was very helpful in guiding us through the car lift and a great host. We can't wait to come back to stay again!

    Thank you so much for your feedback, you were excellent guests and we would be delighted to welcome you back. Regards Helena Property Owner

  • "We had a week in Ludlow at The Stokesay in Nov 23 and the cottage was fantastically well equipped & clean in a superb town centre location."

    Whilst at first I was a little worried about the underground parking it was extremely simple to use and you would never hear anyone using it, what a fantastic way to park in the centre !! Helena is a fabulous host and kept us well informed prior to the arrival and ensured we were comfy & happy once we arrived. I couldn’t recommend this cottage enough in such a beautiful location, markets, walks, pretty local villages all on the doorstep. Thankyou for the welcome gift, much appreciated. I would definitely recommend this property in Ludlow. Helen

  • "This property is in a superb location right in the historic heart of Ludlow."

    Within 2 minutes you can reach Ludlow Castle, markets, shops and pretty Tudor buildings and yet the property is in a quiet lane for a restful nights sleep. The property is showhome clean and showhome presented with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The beds are good quality and mattresses fully supportive. Perhaps a few too many ornaments as we moved some to give us a little more surface space and replaced them in position at end of week. We were glad we took indoor slippers as the carpet is light beige. Our week was very wet so we put some bin bags on the floor by the front door so we could get inside quickly before removing muddy wet boots and clothes - however the ground floor is ceramic tile so easy to brush up dust and wipe down. There is also a washer/dryer if you need it. The underground garage is spacious and the car lift instructions clear. The entry turn is a bit tight. If you have any concerns the owner is very helpful and can suggest alternatives. We were very comfortable in this property and enjoyed our stay immensely.

  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Stokesay."

    It was beautifully decorated, hotel standard beds and fabulous kitchen. The location was right in the heart of Ludlow allowing you to walk into town and out to Whitcliffe Common or Mortimers Forest which was very useful, if you are dog owners like us. The car parking was a big plus too. The bottle of wine and chocolates were very thoughtful and I would highly recommend this house for a stay in Ludlow and to explore the wonders of Shropshire.

    Thank you for you kind comments and a big thank you for leaving the house so clean. We hope we have the opportunity of welcoming you back sometime in the future. Best wishes Helena Property Owner

    Beds were soooo comfy and kitchen well equipped, especially if you want to cook up a meal from one of the local shops. Everything on your door step. Ludlow has plenty of good walks and fine eateries. Can't fault any about our holiday. Great time had by all, especially Freddie our dog.

The historic market town of Ludlow is situated on the River Teme, amidst the outstanding countryside of the Welsh Marches. With more than 500 listed buildings, the town provides a fascinating range of architecture including Ludlow Castle which is over 900 years old and is one of the first stone castles to be built in England. Today the castle is open all year round and hosts a wide range of events including outdoor theatre, food, art and literature festivals and many antique and art fairs. Below the castle, Millenium Green offers a large public riverside green and weir and provides excellent indoor and outdoor dining facilities via the Green Cafe located right on the riverside. Ludlow has held street markets since the twelfth century. Nowadays, a traditional open-air market takes place in the town square every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday throughout the year. More than forty stalls selling a range of goods including fresh produce, cheeses, books and a selection of local crafts are on offer with the 'Local to Ludlow' produce market some Thursdays and an Antique & Flea market some Sundays. Ludlow is also a gourmet’s paradise and a shopper’s dream. The town boasts many places to eat and drink, as well as a number of exclusive boutique style clothes and gift shops. Ludlow is within easy reach of Church Stretton, Shrewsbury and Hereford, as well as popular attractions such as World Heritage Site of Ironbridge Gorge, Severn Valley Railway, Berrington Hall, Croft Castle and Cardingmill Valley.
