"No welcome or sign of owners who live on site."
View from main glass doors and window was of blank wall, car repair garage, parked light commercial vehicles and trailers and wood yard.
Not a working farm.
Chairs were very deep, no back support, I am 6 foot and had to pile up cushions to use them.
Great view from kitchen window though.

The property is well positioned for walking and cycling trips. It's set in beautiful scenery with a great view from the kitchen window. It's comfortable and tastefully decorated . A great place to relax in. It was so warm that we had to turn off the radiator in the bedroom. The owners had also decorated it for Christmas, which was a lovely touch. I would happily return.

The woodburner was a lovely feature. The views down to Ludlow were lovely. It was so peaceful there and two sheep would look through the fence every day. I also managed to see some snow for my birthday having been born during heavy lasting snowfall so that was a bonus.

"Before arrival I had been a little concerned about possible noise as I knew the property was on a working farm, but in fact it was extremely peaceful and quiet."
There is an amazing view from the main window across fields to distant hills. Comfortable bedroom with good storage. Powerful shower. Good wifi. The main room is open plan kitchen, dining,and sofa area with laminate flooring - practical but not specially cosy. Maybe a rug would help.
No garden (there is a small patio) and you are asked not to go in to the yard at the rear (it is a working area), so you do need a car to get out and about. But its a good location, convenient for lots of things. Shropshire is lovely. Watch out for roadworks on the A49 - it was unexpectedly closed one night, in both directions, requiring an extremely long detour.

Facilities far better than I thought, everything that you would need was there. It was super clean, quiet and comfortable. The location was very good too, close enough to drive into Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Leominster and pop over to Wales. Craven Arms is lovely and one thing we did was visit The Land of Lost Content Museum, quirky but brilliant. All those memories came flooding back when we saw all the stuff we'd forgotten about from the 60's & 70's (there is a lot more too) which was 'our' era. Two hours 30 minutes just melted away. There is a supermarket and garden centre, pubs, restaurants and takeaways all really close by. Unfortunately we didn't manage to take in the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre but we will on out next visit. A thoroughly relaxing break.
