"We rented Windy Mundy for a long weekend with a groups a friends from our University days."
It was a party of 11 adults and the house was perfect. All the rooms were spacious and comfortable with excellent facilities to cook for a large party. There was plenty of room for people to chat in small groups as well as for us to eat together at the large sociable dining table. The location is quite isolated (which was perfect for us as there was a bit of Karaoke going on) so there are no neighbours to disturb !! The house itself has a very welcoming feel, 'farm house' with some very stylish features and everyone commented on how comfortable it felt i.e. you felt immediately at home there.
We mostly stayed at the house but did venture into Shrewsbury which is about 30 mins by car and is a lovely town. We also took our dog for a walk along the river and he had a lovely time. The shops were a bit different and characterful with some standard retailers as well as niche boutiques. A few people from our group visited the Shrewsbury prison tour which they found very interesting and worthwhile.
A couple of minor points (as we would highly recommend this house).
It was a little tricky to find so some improved instructions would help. We went along the track road a number of times and turned back not realising how far along the house is. Location of keys to access the sauna etc was not clear - again a few more instructions would help. The hot water pressure is weak and maybe a bit more guidance on re cycling bottles etc.
Thank you for letting us stay in this wonderful house - we had a fabulous time !!! xxx

"For our family it was perfect."
We, as a family of 9 adults, 2 under 5s and 2 dogs, have been holidaying together for the last 5 years staying in various large properties across Scotland and England, and Windy Mundy has been by far the best place we have stayed. Having a completely enclosed garden/court yard it was perfect for our little ones and our pooches enabling us all to chill and relax!
The bedrooms were all clean and comfortable. The kitchen very well equipped. Yes the furniture is in a used condition but having little ones etc that again lends to relief for us grown ups if our babies behave like babies do

"Absolutely brilliant holiday away."
Beautiful house, lovely clean rooms and felt completely remote although only a 10 min drive into the village and a 20 min drive to all the big supermarkets. We would definitely book again!
Only feedback we would give, would have been brilliant to have a little swimming pool in the garden as we picked possibly the hottest week to go, haha!
Easy booking, easy key collection and very organised! Thank you! :)

"What a beautiful and relaxing property to stay in!"
We absolutely loved it; the exposed brickwork in the living room space is amazing, and the views out over the fields are so gorgeous and relaxing. It's very well stocked with everything you need to cook for a large group. Beds are super comfy.
Only slight issues that would make it even better - very poor water pressure and most of the showers are handheld over a bathtub which is awkward. The fire is very smoky - does the chimney maybe need cleaning? If someone could sort the track leading down to the farmhouse and fill in the potholes that would be great.
Otherwise a perfect, relaxing and fun stay. Thanks a lot :)

Had everything we needed. Would benefit from the road being fixed! Also showers in the main house, especially those upstairs, we lacking in power. The front door was difficult to lock and unlock from inside the house, but these were minor issues compared to the communal space that we needed. There were places where members of our large family could go for a bit of peace and quiet. It was very dog friendly and I would highly recommend this venue for large groups and families.

"The accommodation is stunning, especially the main hall which is not close to any of the bedrooms apart from the room up the spiral staircase, which we did not use."
There are some lovely walks around the property, though some were a bit challenging after all the wet weather this year, but we saw deer and several hares. The water pressure was very low, especially in the upstairs rooms, making the showers disappointing.

"Lovely property in a stunning location."
The half mile lane to get to the property is only suitable for 4x4s or SUVs, anything else and you’re likely to damage the bottom of your car. Three of the bathrooms and the kitchen had no hot water for our stay. The bedroom up the spiral staircase isn’t suitable for use. The stairs are a risk for anyone too old or young and there are no blinds in the window so it’s too bright for sleep.

"This was my 80th birthday celebration with all our family."
Windy Mundy was great for the occasion and provided for a range of interests. The house was clean and welcoming and Karen, the house manager was very helpful in advance. The house as lovely and warm and, in view of earlier comments about it smoking, we did not use (or need to use) the log burner. One slight problem is that there are no single rooms for solo visitors. One “suggestion”, given noise nuisance to people sleeping in the Annexe bedroom, would be to move the “games room” to one end of the large lounge and use the vacated space for an additional bedroom. This could release the spiral stairs bedroom that is without bathroom facilities (and quite a distance to share facilities).
Overall a super house for large gatherings which we would be very happy to use again.

The building has the WOW factor especially the lounge/dining room. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, kitchen well equipped and overall we were warm and comfortable. Karen responded and sorted out a heating issue quickly on Saturday afternoon.
The one thing to note is there are steps into the property and from the kitchen to the lounge, which a couple of our party found difficult to manage. The website details could be amended to make this clearer and also the bedroom above the spiral staircase does not have easy access to a bathroom.

We had such a lovely time here. It is spectacular yet homely and cosy at the same time. The views are breath taking. Everyone who came wants me to book again for next year!! A couple of minor things- the upstairs room over the lounge wasn't terribly useable. It got very smoky up there when we lit the log burner and then cold when we had to open the window. Also it would have been useful to have instructions on how to work the TV and DVD player. Other than that it was genuinely perfect and we didn't want to leave! Would highly recommend for a family group/group of friends.

We were a large group meeting for a reunion and it was perfect for our needs.in many ways the photos dont do it justice, the main open plan area with its enormous large ceiling has a real wow factor. Karen the estates manager was in touch a week before with the arrangements and answered all our questions. The Farm is down a track that is quite remote but we were able to arrange a mini bus with a firm in Shrewsburry to pick is up and drop us off for £30 each way, which wasnt bad between 8. The wood fire hot sauna deserves a special mention...lovwly of a cold evening!

"Enjoyed the property for a week in September with four generations of family and two dogs."
Lovely quiet location( majority of time except when farm machinery working close by!) with excellent views over open countryside.The property is accessed by a long farm track whose condition is clearly weather and work dependant. On arrival the weather was dry and the track quite acceptable with little sign of the reported large potholes. However, wet weather and heavy farm machinery using the track resulted in quick deterioration.
Facilities within the property quite adequate for large parties, except in the main block we were unable to get hot water( at best tepid) and there was very low shower pressure. Settee furnishings are “tired” and could do with replacement. Enjoyed the open wood burner on a couple of cool evenings.
Courtyard nice and secure for dogs and small children.
Overall more positives than negatives and we enjoyed our stay.

"This property is truly wonderful, with picturesque views in a quiet setting."
The photographs don't do it justice at all!
The facilities are good, with all the rooms being very spacious and in the living spcaes there is plenty of seating if you have a large number of people staying.
It's in the middle of nowhere so you can be as loud as you like and you won't be annoying any neighbours which is brilliant.
Some of the reviews have stated the track road is a bit rough, but actually it was fine, even for a tiny Aygo and KA!
There were a few niggly things which would make the stay a 10/10 if fixed:
- A couple of the twin beds at the back of the property are extremely uncomfortable to sleep on.
- The WiFi router drops off quite a lot, so you cannot rely on this for any activities you might need it for.
- Uneven and low distribution of toilet roll.
- A lot of spiders/cobwebs in the Annex (most of which could've been reached and gotten ridden of).
These were the only real sticking points, and I really do want to emphasise how much we had a great time. The property really was wonderful and we would definitely stay again!

"We have just returned from an amazing weekend."
The property is fantastic for large parties, there was so much space that we never felt on top of each other. The kitchen was so well equipped with loads of storage. The main room is so impressive, and it is such a sociable area. The view is nothing short of breathtaking, we were lucky with the weather which meant we could sit outside & enjoy the scenery. The only criticism was the lack of outdoor seating for so many people, the benches sat 10 people comfortably. The other people sat on the decked area. The bedrooms were all beautiful & decorated in keeping with the building. The king size bedroom that is located next to the sauna is in an annex, this wasn’t specified in the description of the property, however this didn’t cause a problem for us. As stated in previous reviews the track leading up to the property has pot holes, as long as you drive slow and don’t go in a sports car this shouldn’t be a problem. The manager of the property contacted me via email the week before with lots of information which was really good. And there was some lovely touches for us when we arrived biscuits, milk, washing up liquid & dishwasher tablets. If you are looking for a tranquil location with amazing views you will not be disappointed.
Thank you so much for your feedback, we are happy to hear that you would recommend us. We appreciate all feedback, so any changes or improvements that can be made we will definitely look into. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you again.

"Super property."
We stayed as a family group of 3 generations and had a wonderful time. House is very comfortable with a well stocked kitchen and living area. The games room was a hit with the kids (although the table needs some repair work).
Not negatives but would help improve the property , very bumpy drive which could do with a bit of hole filling. It would be good to have a second outside table and bench set as we couldn’t all eat together outside. Water pressure on the upstairs showers is a bit low.
However we had such a fabulous time, I’m sure we’ll be back.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We will look into all those issues raised, we do have a property manager who is on hand whenever needed to fix or look into anything during your stay. We hope to see you booking back with us at Windy Mundy Farm.

Only negatives are that there is no separate downstairs wc, many others but all en- suites and the lane to the property is full of very large potholes, just ok with a low riding car if you only travel it once to and from the property, but multiple trips are problematic.

"Absolutely stunning property with amazing views."
The directions were easy to follow and access to the property was as described and straightforward. On arrival it was warm, clean and welcoming with all bedding and towels provided.
Kitchen is really well equipped with plenty of everything, and even two kettles, two toasters and two fridges which proved very useful with a large party. The property was renovated about twenty years ago and it is still beautiful but I would say that some of the mattresses are due for replacement in the near future. The only other niggle was that the water pressure in some of the showers was poor so it was hard to have a good shower.
It worth mentioning that one of the double rooms is in a separate building with the sauna and games room. This was not an issue for us as we had teenagers who were happy to sleep away from their parents, but if you have small children who would need to be near parents do bear this in mind.
Karen the manager was very responsive and helpful both before and during our break when we had a query.

"We loved our stay at Windy Mundy Farm; it was exactly what we wanted, letting us take advantage of the countryside but also being convenient to get to with taxis."
The place is beautiful and thoughtfully laid out and I would highly recommend people to stay there. The living room is far enough away from all (apart from one) of the bedrooms so it means that people can stay up late socialising and others can go to bed early.
The location is beautiful and you can wander round to Pitchford Hall and take in the architecture and grounds there. There's also just a beautiful view of the countryside from the main area in the accommodation and an outdoor table where you can eat al fresco. I'm just disappointed we were there on such hot days so we couldn't make use of the sauna or the lovely fireplace in the living room.
Our only issue was that some of the bedroom windows don't open and that was tough considering we were there on the hottest days ever in the UK! We also were a little disappointed there was no salt and pepper or other kitchen basics like baking paper and foil. Those are very mild negatives though as they are just things we hadn't thought about and otherwise the kitchen had everything we needed, even down to multiple caffetieres and an immersion blender.
