  • "Faultless. Loved our stay there."

    Thank you.

    Mr Kevan DaySep 2024

  • "The property was a lovely comfortable cottage in a popular town and offered a cosy lounge with a lovely conservatory and verandah overlooking the river."

    Cottage was tastefully decorated and within 10 minutes walk to the lovely town of Ludlow. Kingfisher, Egrets, Cormorants and an Otter were visible from the verandah whilst relaxing with a glass of wine.

    Mr Alan ReedSep 2024

  • "Beautiful, quirky little cottage, with a lovely terrace where you can sit and watch the river."

    Perfect base for exploring Ludlow.

    Mrs Cath ChilcottJul 2024

  • "Really lovely stay, in a lovely spot!"

    And thank you for sorting out the parking permits and what-not. The cottage is beautiful, was spotless when we arrived I think, and is perfectly comfortable for two people. (Ludlow was great fun to explore as well.) The one thing I'd change/fix was the oven, which could do with a little attention - the bottom oven doesn't seem to work (?), and the top oven takes a long time to work, but it does eventually and the hobs are electric so they're fine. :)

  • "Lovely location next to the Teme."

    Even though Ludlow is very familiar to us, we made some interesting discoveries nearby - the further reaches of Temeside and the Bread Walk. It’s a lovely town to walk around.

    Mr John BuryMay 2024

  • "A lovely small cottage in a great location."

    Everything you could want for a home from home stay
