"We had such a wonderful stay at Cow’ouse!"
It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay (even things like washing up liquid and sponges, which many don’t bother with) + a great shower, comfy bed and sofa. It was lovely waking up to the sheep in the field outside and our dog loved having the run of the garden. Pete was really friendly and helpful too.
We would definitely return

"Cow'ouse is a wonderful place to stay."
..a home from home. The secure garden is great for dogs and the cottage itself had everything I needed. It was a pleasure to cook in such a beautiful kitchen. Comfy bed, great shower and lovely linens and towels - everything felt of good quality, nothing done on the cheap.
The sofa, whilst of good quality maybe isn't the comfiest if you want to curl up and watch a film (it's quite shallow and upright) but this could be improved by maybe just adding a footstool for a little extra comfort.
A great base for exploring and I'd highly recommend a visit to Hodnett Hall Gardens just ten mins away.
I've stayed in many holiday rentals and Cow'ouse is one that I will definitely return to.

"The cottage is amazing."
Warm, comfortable and extremely well equipped. It is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The private garden was great, lovely sunny patio to sit and watch our dog playing.

"We had a lovely stay at the Cow-Ouse, even our dog Earl enjoyed himself running around and playing in the garden."
The cottage was well equipped, and we would definitely recommend this accommodation to family and friends for a quiet relaxing break.
The local village is only a 5 minute drive away, with a small supermarket, bakery, butcher shop, fish and chip shop. We would definitely recommend the Fox and Hounds pub, great food and service + not too expensive. The host Pete was helpful and only a phone call away.
Would love to return in the future.

"This is the first property we have visited that we haven't had to do any cleaning or wash dishes, cups & cutlery."
I always though I was over picky as I am a housekeeper! We stayed 4 nights & it was relaxing, comfortable, peaceful & had everything we needed. Our dog had the best time because he had total freedom to come & go in the secure back garden. He was super relaxed too. We will be staying again

"Our stay at cow'ouse was a beautiful holiday stay in the Shropshire countryside."
The cottage was immaculate and well positioned for exploring the area and Wales too.
We found that a few more knives and forks would be handy if using the dishwasher and a collander for straining vegs.
Our Whippet Penny enjoyed the freedom in the garden and new smells.
We were fortunate to meet Pete the owner and enjoyed chatting over the garden fence.
We will definatly recommend the cottage and hope to return.
We added some brochures and would highly recommended Hawkstone Quarries and British Iron and Steel Sculpture park in Owerstry.
Great week in all.

"We very much enjoyed our stay."
A lot of effort has clearly been put into making the cottage really lovely and welcoming, and it is very well equipped. The enclosed garden is fantastic for dogs. Our only comment would be that the sofa seems a bit tired - very low down and saggy. A teapot and a couple of egg cups would be useful, but those are very minor points indeed! Thank you very much and we definitely hope to return..

"This cottage was absolutely lovely!"
It had everything you could possibly need while away and our pooch loved the enclosed garden so she could run around freely. It is also situated in a great place so it’s easy to get to shops if needed and to go explore the Shropshire countryside. Pete was a great host and was on hand if we needed anything. Overall, it was a great stay and we would happily book to stay again

"We had the best weekend!"
Didn’t want to come home, we stayed 3 nights over bonfire weekend as our dog is scared of fireworks and it was the perfect getaway! Everything was so clean, comfortable and so cosy! Lovely and warm and had everything we needed. Pete was available for anything we needed during our stay. Can’t wait to return! Would definitely recommend!

"Lovely place to stay and local for family we were biding ."
. 5* finish apart from sofa .. we could tell a lot of thought and no expense spared when holiday let was originally decorated / renovated which is why we felt the sofa let it down .. the springs felt like they had gone making it very uncomfortable and it smelt musty, luckily we always take throws away with us so covered the sofa for the duration of our stay .. also it would have been nice to have had an iron & ironing board at the property as we hadn’t taken one couldn’t iron clothes all week .. someone previously must have had the sane problem and used their own in bedroom carpet where there was an iron burn mark .. a few baking trays would have been a good idea also .. on the whole a lovely place to stay but as stated a couple of things could have made better

"Great converted barn accommodation done to a very high standard."
Great location close to many attractions. Enjoyed our stay here wish we had booked longer so much to see in the area. Nice and quiet with a great out look over fields. One very small problem was the fenced garden was not totally secure as our small puppy could get under the large gate , however owner has said he will correct this. Will probably book the 2 bedroom barn next time as daughter wants to come.

"Stayed here for 3 weeks with my husband and Great Dane."
The cottage is brand new and immaculate. Really cosy, warm and homely - larger than it looks in the pictures. The back door was great to let the dog straight out into the garden, where she loved to sit and watch out for Pheasants. Very well equipped with everything you need (and more!). Surprised it's just listed as 4 ticks. Pete, the owner, was on hand just in case and was very welcoming and helpful. It's a five min drive to the local village for groceries and the Chinese takeaway is excellent. We loved it and would definitely stay again.
