"We've used Sykes before and stayed in Stockbatch Granary also on the Pitchford Estate in 2022."
We therefore knew what to expect from the description of the farm track to the property. It was actually much better than we thought and perfectly OK if car has decent ground clearance and you take it slowly. Yes your car will get mucky but the roads around are mucky too. It was so fabulous to be somewhere so peaceful during 'firework week'. We didn't hear a single bang so great for our dogs. The garden was secure/enclosed enough for our dogs who are larger and don't tend to wander but smaller dogs or escape artists would get through the railings. We enjoyed being able to walk from the door although sadly one footbridge through the woods was damaged. Walking around the estate lake was a nice stroll with autumn colour. Sadly clouds meant no dark skies but with zero light pollution I'd imagine this is a great place for stargazing. Bit of a drive to any pubs but most seemed Dog Friendly. The Pound does fabulous pies. If I'm being super picky another sofa would be good if 4 adults in the property but we made do. Contrary to a previous review, there is a microwave (the top oven is a combi). Would definitely return, the garden would be a great suntrap in the summer. Easy to clean although a mop would have been useful (there was a head but no handle). Wifi was fast enough for me to do a couple of days work and for streaming catchup TV on the freesat.

"I THINK YOU MUST TELL VISITORS ABOUT THE LONG OVER 1 MILE TRACK AND WHILE WE WERE THERE THE FARMERS WERE WORKING ON THE FIELDS SO THE TRACK WAS AWFUL."
IT HAS JUST COST US TODAY £60 TO GET THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR CLEANED ON THE CAR.

"This holiday cottage was fantastic."
It was spotlessly clean. Very well equipped. The location was quiet and unspoilt views surrounding it. Would highly recommend.
-
"A perfect holiday let for those seeking peace and quiet."
Beautiful rural location on a farm estate with mature trees, hedgerows and fields all round. You need a robust car with high undercarriage to manage the long rough farm track in and out due to the potholes, especially after rain, but we found it worth this minor inconvenience. Treehouse Barn is spacious, all on one level and decorated and furnished to a high spec. We couldn't fault it and loved the ambience. Without hesitation, we would go back.

"We had a lovely week at Tree House Barn in this beautiful part of Shropshire, enjoying visits to Ludlow, Attingham Park, Blists Hill Victorian Town, Long Mynd and Ironbridge as well as several local walks."
The cottage and surroundings were lovely and quiet with wildlife in abundance (deer, hare, red kite, fox etc) The garden was fine for our dog; being small and an escape artist he needed to be kept on a longline in the garden but we expected this and he's used to it on holiday. Loved the kitchen, space, views, silence, dark night skies. Thank you!

"Location was perfect so peaceful but could have been 5star if you had a decent sitting area outside the bench provided is so uncomfortable we had a barbecue every night but had to in to eat indoors."
The weather was great and we could have spent more time outside with decent furniture. The flies were a big issue had to buy extra fly killer. There was no microwave, extra chopping boards would be helpful . The paintwork is looking tired on window frames and doors also the weeds by back door could do with removing.We are not being nasty but for the money it could have been better.
-
"It was really wonderful, quiet, convenient, set in an interesting historic estate, well- equipped kitchen and spacious bedrooms and living space."
The only thing that needs improvement is the comfort of the king-size bed mattress. My husband and I both suffer from bad backs which is perhaps why we found it uncomfortable, perhaps a mattress- topper would sort it? But apart from that we had a most enjoyable stay and would highly recommend.
-
"Wonderful place and location."
Well appointed property. One observation the bed in the master bedroom was quite lumpy as a mattress
-
"Lovely barn, would highly recommend."
Incredible seeing how such an old barn can be turned into something so beautiful. The dog walking was the best part, lots to explore. Lovely and peaceful, ideal for a quiet relaxing stay. Bed was slightly uncomfortable for us but that is pure preference. Lovely farm drive, not sure why other reviews said this was a problem, just go slow, it’s a working farm?! Karen was so lovely, 10/10, will definitely book again.
-
"The Barn is a beautiful property, set in tranquil, peaceful surroundings."
We have been here numerous times and it feels just the same every time. Thank you to all the wonderful staff.
-
"Superb break - this is the perfect place to really get away from it all but with all mod cons!"
The accommodation is finished to a high standard and the enclosed garden is a good size for dogs to play. Lovely rural setting and easy access to lots of great places to visit
-
"A wonderful stay in a well equipped barn conversion which is quite and away from the noise of everyday life."
The wifi is good and general facilities excellent (the bath in the bedroom is slightly odd but go with it and it's fine!). Garden is great is you have dogs. Would be nice to see some egg cups but that's a pretty minor, and personal preference. Close to Shrewsbury, which is lovely to explore and the surrounding areas are lovely for walking. The real issue that lets the barn down is the access road. Think moon level craters and a farm track that really requires a sturdy 4x4 and that gives you an idea of what to expect. We prayed for our suspension each time we arrived or left the barn. On the last day the farmer had made some repairs but a careful and slow drive was still required. Would we go back or recommend it? Yes. Just maybe with a tractor next time!
-
"Road to property needs attention, was awful."
Did get message day or two before warning us of the current state of repair of the road which unfortunately didn’t help. Had a lovely break, weather was nice and sunny, barn was spacious, well equipped and ideal for our needs. Great garden space for our dogs. Nice walks from the barn passing the famous Pitchford tree house.
-
"Beautiful surroundings and cottage really comfortable, clean and well furnished."
Only problem we had was with the dishwasher which did not work at first due to need for salt. This was promptly attended to but unfortunately still did not work. We did not mind washing up by hand but other holiday people may not. We had a great week and weather was excellent. Our holiday was perfect. Sue and friends ( happy for you to publish without dishwasher problem as sure this was rectified)
-
"I loved every minute of this short break."
The barn was exactly as described and I only wish we could have stayed longer. I would love to return. The only things that I would ask the owner to think about are: Maybe another settee in the lounge so everyone can sit in comfort. In the garden some sort of netting over the metal fence to make it secure as we had to keep our dog on his lead as he could fit through the gaps.
-
"Tree House Barn was absolutely perfect for us to get away & to re charge our batteries."
Location was fantastic, it has panoramic views of the countryside in amongst the Pitchford estate. An enclosed private area for the dogs to run around. Plenty of lovely walks & you are able to see Pitchford House & the tree house within a few minutes walk. Would definitely come back.
-
"Quality accommodation, beautiful views, home from home."
Karen was a star with our problem, sending Phil straight over. Warm welcome, lovely real Christmas tree, everything you needed, lovely very large white towels, even a teapot. Four minutes careful drive down estate road to the barn, signposted.
-
"Loved the gorgeous tree house barn will return"
-
"We really enjoyed our stay from beginning to end it was lovely and peaceful ."
The barn is lovely .
-
"The Barn was lovely and warm on our arrival."
It was a lovely touch having a bottle of milk, biscuits, tea and coffee there for you to have a drink before you unpack. It is very peaceful with a view of lovely countryside. A great place to relax. Care is needed on the farm track as there are a few potholes and when they are full of water it's difficult to know how deep they are. We would definitely return.
-
"If you want seclusion then this is the place."
Had a great holiday lovely place. The only thing we found being very picky is the wood above doors and windows could do with replacing as flies and wasps gather there and fall from wood when windows open. Lots of killing required. Everything else ideal many thanks
-
"Second time at the barn, love the remoteness and silence, no road noise is lovely."
Views around the barn are outstanding and no one bothers you. Shops are only a 20 minute drive away. The barn could do with a deep clean and a bit of paint, there was a lot of cobwebs and dead (& alive) spiders. Walls were a bit marked and window was still cracked 4 years after the first visit. Outside doors could do with a paint, guttering leaks and there are wasps in the soffits. Garden gate does not latch and blew open, garden is not secure for smaller dogs. Shower tray needs re siliconing as it has gone black. Lack of comfortable garden furniture. We bought some locally, made such a difference to be able to sit outside and read in comfort. This is not to say we didn’t have a nice time, but the property could do with a little spruce up. Maybe a new smart tv where guests could log into their own Netflix account? Don’t be put off by what I’ve written, it’s a lovely place, it just needs a bit of maintenance to get it back to 100%.
-
"This is the 3rd time, and we would go again."
We couldn't have picked a more friendly, efficient service. It was quiet, very quiet and that was what we needed. I would recommend it to anyone.
So happy to hear you are having such a lovely time with us – we would love to have you back again. Property Owner

This is a lovely property in a beautiful area,what more could you ask for when wanting to chill out and relax,the visit from the fox and pheasants was an added bonus,we would certainly consider another visit in the future
What a lovely review for us to read through. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave one and we really hope to see you back with us again in the future. Property Owner

"Had an amazing time did not want to leave middle of nowhere and that was great total relaxation."
Karen was lovely as well and explained everything very clearly to us cant wait to go back would highly recommend.

"We had a wonderful stay and loved Tree house barn."
A party of two couples, friends for years, meeting up to catch up. Two of us had visited Pitchford Hall once before a few years ago so we were excited to be able to stay on the estate. The barn is in a wonderful location for viewing historical sites and towns of Shropshire. The barn met all of our needs. It had everything you could need in the kitchen including a microwave in the upper oven and the WiFi worked well for us. The bedrooms were at either end of the barn so gave space and privacy. The bathroom door/curtain gave a surprising amount of privacy. And we loved both toilets had amazing views !!! We were impressed with the amount of space the Barn provided for just 4 guests. We thought it would be perfect for 2 as well for a romantic away from it all escape. We only saw one small human twice as he very quickly cycled past in the whole of our 4 night stay. There are a few things we would mention but not in a negative way merely to our taste. The bedrooms are large and need a chair in (we used the spare relaxing chair from the lounge). The shower cubicle is large and raised, the rest of the barn having very easy access, so a grab rail inside the shower would be very useful for us older clients. And just one thing concerned us. A lot of people have mentioned the suitability of the front garden for dogs. We were more concerned of its suitability for children and adults. We didn't have any children with us but the length of the grass, previous use by dogs and invading nettles would have concerned us if we had had. Our weather meant we didn't get a lot of time to sit outside but we did enjoy the time we did spend. Maybe a cut of the grass more often might help although we understand this is farm land. Or even dividing the large area in to two one with short grass for games or simply sitting on and the other for dogs to run around in. Completely aside and on a personal level I felt one of the pictures in the twin room was a little macabre and maybe would be better suited away from from such a happy holiday environment but that was just me. And our final comment has to be for the manager Karen. Such a helpful, supportive and responsive lady a very special thank you to her for her advice making our stay perfect. We hope we can visit again in the future and would definitely recommend.
We are very grateful for your review and any form of feedback is always happily received. We appreciate everything that comes through to us here at Tree House Barn – thank you for your special mention of Karen, we make sure to relay every piece of lovely feedback like this to her. We would love to have you back with us again and will look out for your booking. Property Owner

"Lovely property."
Very comfortable and warm. The only thing I would suggest is that the fencing around said enclosed garden would have chicken wire or something like it in between the bars as even labradors can get through, which is a worry if they were to get into crop field. Hopefully this is constructive feed back. A lovely break was had by us and assistance dogs. We shall book again.
-
"Wonderful property."
Wonderful setting. All the facilities that we needed. We had a relaxing holiday. A charging point in a socket in the kitchen area may be an addition that could be looked at.
-
"The only thing missing is a microwave then it would be one of the best places I've ever stayed in."
-
"A lovely cosy barn in a beautiful setting."
We enjoyed our stay at tree house barn, the dogs loved it. We walked the footpath route around the estate which took us around an hour, no animals in the fields at this time of year so the dogs could run the fields. We seen a few partridge, pheasant and hares. We haven’t stayed in a place so remote before but it was perfect. We visited different villages and towns near by which were 20/30 min drive, we had a lovely meal at the riverside pub which I would highly recommend. Overall we had a great time and loved the cottage and would definitely return, the only 2 small things would be the garden isn’t secure for small dogs and in the wetter months there’s no hose outside to wash dogs down/muddy boots which would make it a lot easier.

"We The cottage was lovely and remote, just what we wanted."
The facilities were excellent, unfortunately the plumbing was not and the smell of the septic system nearly ruined our holiday, thus the slightly negative review on the facilities and maintenance. However, for the first time in long while in the UK, the customer service was unbelievable. Karen who was the local Sykes cottage representative could not have been more responsive and helpful in trying to fix the problem. And when it was clear that the septic issue was serious, without even missing a beat, Karen courtesy of the owners, moved us to another of their holiday properties, which was a beautiful barn conversion that slept 16 at no extra charge. So what could have been a real disaster was dealt with in such a professional manner by Karen, that I would have to say it was the best holiday cottage we have ever had and my wife and I will go with Sykes again.

"We had the most fantastic festive stay at Tree House Barn, staying from Boxing day until the end of the year."
The barn was beautifully warm and cosy with underfloor heating, lovely furnishings and special touches like a lit Christmas tree and a tub of chocolates! The kitchen is very well equipped, the bath and shower were luxurious and we felt like we were at a five star resort. We had rubbish weather (which can't be helped) but we were happy to stay in the barn and had the space to relax and play board games. There is a TV and DVD player to use too. We really hope to come back with better weather so we can see more of the area.
-
"We had a delightful stay."
There is Wi-Fi, but it is so low a speed as to be a nuisance and we agree that it is better not to say it is there. There is no mobile phone coverage (well not on O2 or Vodafone) in the cottage, but it springs to life a few steps outside. The cottage is beautiful and very clean and well maintained by Karen. The drive to the cottage is best suited to a four by four.
-
"Lovely property and lovely setting, we had such a peaceful weekend we will definitely be returning and hopefully for longer next time."
-
"Remembered from a previous visit - with a very high level of comfort and equipment especially the kitchen and sleeping arrangements."
Excellent d/bed. The g/source heating and hot water availability is first class. Brighter bedside lighting needed to read in bed. Side lamps in lounging area again could be stronger. Fortunately we took our own portable lighting for this purpose! Dining chairs were a disappointment in their lack of support and comfort (also rather low for the table). Could a tea cozy be provided for the teapot plus a tea strainer for the leaf tea? These are minor niggles, of course, but we feel the lighting is an important issue. A real home from home feeling.
-
"I was looking forward to being here once again."
It was quiet and peaceful it was beautiful. This time it was gorgeous. It was just as I remember it, clean, all the things there you should have. I must say something about the internet – it was off and again, the next time it was off. I knew how to mend it, but I don’t think I should have to, for the entire trip!
-
"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property, very isolated which is perfect for us, cottage warm and comfortable."
This was our second visit and will not be our last
-
"Perfect location and a wonderful holiday."
Very private location with beautiful surroundings to wonder around. We holiday in the UK only and this is one of our favourite places. Will definitely be back.
-
"The only thing we would love to see changed is for the black metal fencing to be secured with chicken wire, as it is not a secure garden for small dogs, or to have a baby gate available for the patio doors to be left open, as it was very hot."
We were unaware that apparently on Sykes 'enclosed garden' and 'secure gardens" are different! Despite not being able to allow the dogs off lead all week we had a lovely holiday and would stay again. My wife and I used the week as a "chill out" week with colouring/ puzzles/ reading and music and it was perfect, and even though it was remote there was easy access to various shops for food shopping. The contactless arrival/ departure was perfect for us with the dogs, and enabled us to decide last minute to leave at 11pm Friday night and drive overnight to avoid the Bank Holiday traffic.
-
"We had an awesome time at Tree House Barn."
We loved the remoteness, so peaceful, the barn was well equipped, comfortable and spotless. Our dogs also loved the area and spent most of their time when not walking sitting in the garden watching the wildlife. We will definitely go back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
-
"Been to this barn 4 times now, dogs love it here."
-
"An excellent isolated barn, perfectly suited for our needs, plenty of walks on the doorstep for the dog, plus large enclosed grass area attached to the barn."
Well equipped and plenty of space, wifi handy as mobile signal poor. Would recommend this barn for anyone who likes being away from the crowd to just enjoy the surrounding area
-
"Fantastic quiet property in an amazing setting in the middle of nowhere."
There is a long man-made track to and from the accommodation but driving carefully in a low-slung coupe was fine. This was our second stay at Tree House Barn and it won't be our last. It's a great location for walking in the Shropshire Hills or visiting Shrewsbury (5 miles) or Ludlow (25 miles). It's perfect for mutts too. My only slight reservation would be that if there are 4 of you, you need to be quite comfortable with an open toilet/shower in the bedroom! As a couple it was the perfect setup as we slept in one bedroom and used the other at the other end of the building as the bathroom. Wi-fi reception was fine (mobile phone less so).
-
"Lovely, warm cottage."
Well equipped and good quality fittings. Karen is an excellent property manager. Delightful short walks around the lakes and gardens of Pitchford Hall - even though the many “Private” signs may make you feel a little unwelcome. However, if you are looking for long walks from the door you may be disappointed as some of the estate paths lead to nowhere/locked gates and we even found the public footpaths through the estate were not always passable due to farm crops, despite this being contrary to the farmers obligations. For this reason, all walks from the door must be taken via the Cantlop to Pitchford road, which feels a little unsafe to walk on. So in summary wonderful cottage for most people, if you are happy to use the car for everything other than the occasional short stroll.

"Unfortunately the garden is not dog proof, the railings are too far apart, ..."
Unfortunately the garden is not dog proof, the railings are too far apart, especially as our dogs are small, can get through, needs chicken netting, toilets, needs doors, can be embarrassing, track to the property very rough, key holder needs explicit instructions, otherwise the property is very good, Christine,
-
"Lovely place,Treehouse barn was well kept and immaculate."
My wife and me,plus the 2 dogs loved it.I would strongly recommend Sykes for a great get away,we have used them twice now and never been disappointed.
-
"This was the second year we have been to Tree House Barn and had an absolutely fabulous time."
The cottage is just perfect for us and three dogs. The beds are comfortable and it was so warm and cosy, everything was there which we needed. The welcome tea/coffee etc. was a kind thought. Others have commented that the road to the cottage was not good but if taken carefully and slowly it causes no problems. Tree House Barn is in a lovely peaceful location away from everything and it was great to unwind in such lovely surroundings. We will be back.
-
"Hols review : The Tree House Barn is such delightful place to visit for a peaceful and calm holiday."
The actual barn is well equipped, HOWEVER the major downfall is the beds. ALL THE BEDS ARE JUST AWFUL. The main double bed is so hard. No way could we sleep on that. The two single beds we pushed together. One was ok but the other the springs have gone making it so uncomfortable. Such a shame as the rest of the property is so lovely. PLEASE can the owners look into the sleeping arrangements as seriously a whole week of not much sleep isn’t great option for a holiday break.
Thank you for your feedback which is very valuable to us, following on from your review all mattresses have now been replaced, this is reflective in recent feedback whereby guests have advised beds were comfortable. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage in s peaceful part of Shropshire."
Clean and tidy with everything you need. Karen was really helpful, thank you. Highly recommended.
-
"An excellent place to stay with a secure garden for a lively dog."
Spacious and warm in winter, with no near neighbours on a large agricultural estate. A peaceful and relaxing visit.
-
"We have had a wonderful 3 night break here and don’t want to leave."
It’s secluded and peaceful here and we’ve all enjoyed our stay, including our 2 dogs and 9/10 year old daughters. Shrewsbury is only a short drive away, and is beautiful, with so much to look at we need to come back.
-
"Lovely, well equipped, spacious cottage in a delightful quiet rural environment."
Karen, the property manager was easy to contact and very helpful.
-
"Lovely barn conversion, very comfortable and warm."
Everything you need for your stay. Good description of property including the access, which was bumpy, loved how remote it was. Totally away from it all. No phone signal(bliss) Wifi not working but we didn't mind that.
-
"We spent a lovely Christmas at Tree House Barn, and would go back in an instant!"
The barn was warm, comfortable and very well equipped. The Wi-Fi was not happening, but that wasn’t an issue for us, and the lack of telephone signal (unless you opened the door and we’re lucky) wasn’t an issue for us either! The internet was resolved on the day we left, so future guests need not worry! The kitchen was a pleasure to be in (so my friend said!), and the beds were so comfy!! The dog had a big garden to wander round, and that was enough for him! The route to the barn led down a very wet and muddy lane, with lots of holes! The only downside to the entire holiday was the car looked like a farm vehicle by the end!! Would recommend the barn to anyone, and the gifts of a bottle of bubbly and some delicious biscuits was the icing on the cake!
-
"Tranquil, very comfortable and cosy eco-house"
-
"Loved it. We normally book cottages with an open fire, just in case the heating isn't too efficient and as this one hadn't got one I took some throws for the evenings."
... very much not required!!!! The underfloor heating is fab (the dogs loved it too!!). Beautiful cottage, excellent facilities in lovely surroundings. Very happy to recommend and it we're back in this neck of the woods I would have no hesitation in booking again
-
"A lovely visit"

"The cottage was lovely, on lovely grounds."
Definitely go again.

"Everything about this place was terrific if we had to be picky it would be the ..."
Everything about this place was terrific if we had to be picky it would be the drive from the road to the property that had quite a lot of potholes in it but that is being really picky
-
"Broken double glazed bedroom window is reducing the effectiveness of approach to energy conservation."
Although there were outside lights positioned overlooking the garden area they appeared not to work making it very difficult to determine whether or not it was necessary to clear up after the dogs when let out after dark! Rather more remote than expected but this added to a lovely peaceful escape.
-
"Thé double bed was very uncomfortable - mattress too lumpy Track could do with potholes being filled especially in wet weather A few extra mugs wouldn’t go amiss if using dish washer Loved the location and peace and quiet - are guests allowed to wander around estate?"
-
"The cottage was absolutely beautiful and the views but getting to the cottage down the road was very bad"
-
"We had a wonderful relaxing break in Tree House Barn."
We went with two children (2 & 6) who both really enjoyed walking around the estate and exploring! We enjoyed the barns spacious rooms and the large bathtub which we had nice bath bombs in several times in the week. The barn is located down a slightly bumpy farm track which is a little more hairy in wet weather but we didn't mind at all as it was so nice to be remote. The field out the front was excellent for throwing a new boomarang and hiding in the grass!! A couple of bits of feedback - the dryer part of the washer dryer doesn't seems to work or is so fussy doesn't easily work. The mattress on one of the single beds really isn't comfortable at all and needs replacing and some of the chairs although look nice, are not very comfy to sit on. However this didn't impact our holiday as we had a great time and loved the property. Thanks to Karen and Phil who manage the property and we're happy to help.

"We spent a wonderfully peaceful week at Tree House Barn in July."
The barn is located in quite a remote spot across fields, reached by a farm track, and all around is countryside, some amazingly rare wildlife and tranquility. Just the quiet calm we needed after months of intensive working from home. The converted barn was spacious and comfortable, and has a mix of classic older furnishings with modern facilities. The modern and well-equipped kitchen especially was a delight to work in with the open-plan design meaning no separation from other family members enjoying time on the sofa whilst preparing culinary delights. The outside space was great for our two medium/large dogs who enjoyed sunbathing on the south facing expanse whilst we were happy that the fencing kept them securely within the grounds of the property. We saw a horse or two and the same number of walkers pass by all week. It was just the place we needed to get away from town life. There are interesting places to visit from here and walks to be had either directly from the barn or in the local area that can be driven to. We'd love to return to chill out and relax again in a place we felt very comfortable with. Karen, the local property manager, was also very helpful. If you want to get away from it all - this is the place to escape to.
-
"A fantastic place to stay and we will definitely go back."
It really is in the middle of nowhere and so peaceful. The only thing worthy of note is that you don't want to enter the estate via the Pitchford Church entrance unless you have a 4x4. We took a fairly low sling 'coupe' which made the last hundred yards of that way in impassable as it was round the edge of a field and we had to turn back. There is a better way in if you go 1/2 mile further up the road and take the long driveway next to a post-box on the left. Still a bit hairy but driving carefully passed without incident (after 1/4 mile, Tree House Barn is hidden down a small track on your left on a sharp right hand bend). Well worth it though!

Step inside the contemporary open-plan living space where underfloor heating will warm you in the colder months whilst you socialise with your loved ones in this bright and spacious setting.
A TV with a DVD player sits in the corner when you fancy a film night, with a sofa and armchairs to relax on; it's the perfect place to wind down after a day of walking in the surrounding countryside.
Take a seat at the stylish breakfast bar overlooking the sleek fitted kitchen and keep the chef of your group company whilst they rustle up some delicious home-cooked food for all, with excellent appliances at hand including an electric hob and built in oven and microwave.
The bedrooms lie at either end of the property, with the first bedroom boasting a king-size bed and a beautiful roll top bath and basin within the room, whilst the WC rests in a separate en-suite.
The second bedroom is home to twin beds and benefits from an en-suite shower room behind a curtain, letting you step into a refreshing shower first thing.
Enjoy time outside in your own private enclosed garden, with your canine companions sure to love this large lawn space.
Tree House Barn earned its name thanks to what could be the oldest tree house in the world, Tree House at Pitchford, first appearing in records in 1692 and visited by a young Queen Victoria.
Pitchford Hall is a Grade I listed property holding a great deal of history, with the extensive grounds being open to guests to roam, coming across lakes, hills and fields with opportunities to spot local wildlife!
The nearest town to Pitchford Estate is Shrewsbury, also home to a wealth of historical significance and home to over 600 listed buildings.
Visit the imposing, redbrick Shrewsbury Castle now home to the Shropshire Regimental Museum which contains all manner of armed forces artefacts dating from the 18th century to the present day, whilst Shrewsbury Abbey is what remains of the original Norman Benedictine Monastery built in 1083 and is well worth a visit for history enthusiasts.
Travel on Britain's steepest railway in Bridgnorth, enjoying scenic cliff top views at the top overlooking the beautiful River Severn, or head to the medieval market town of Much Wenlock.
The ruins of Acton Burnell Castle are striking and can be incorporated into a walk right from the Pitchford Estate, whilst the amazing Wroxeter Roman City from the 2nd century is an amazing sight to behold!
