• "Lovely cottage in a beautiful location with fantastic views from the cottage and the garden."

  Extremely well equipped providing a very comfortable holiday. Sitting in the peaceful garden looking towards the Stiperstones is the place to drink tea and soak up the sun after a walk.

• "Lovely property, wonderful location, stunning views."

  Owner delightful to chat to and obviously loves the situation which made us very jealous. Animals add a different dimension, pigs make a charming alternative to our compost bins! The two donkeys great to feed apples and carrots to which they greatly enjoyed. The shaggy sheep a delight on the eye. Would recommend and be very happy to return to Linda and Terry Williams

• "Probably the best Sykes cottage we’ve stayed at so far ."

  Paul and Tracy were very friendly and helpful and the animals were great . It was fun feeding our veggie bits to the pigs. . The cottage was very comfortable and well maintained with everything you could possibly want . The email from Tracy was the best and most comprehensive ever received. Wonderful views from the front windows of the stiperstones and incredibly quiet . Also a lovely seating area outside both front and back doors . Watch your head on the front door it’s quite low (lots of warnings) so we used the back . Overall a really lovely week in a terrific cottage.

• "Nant isa was one of the best holiday lets we have had."

  It was very clean and tidy and in good decorative order, A lot of thought had gone into equipping the cottage including little things like a sewing kit and in the kitchen tin foil and wrap and even a steamer. The welcome pack and bowl of fruit was very much appreciated. A very peaceful location with fabulous views of the Stiperstones and lots of walks from near the cottage. But best of all was the animals, Pigs Donkeys Goats and Dogs, we loved them all. A fabulous retreat!

  Perfect for walking straight from the door or a short drive to many interesting places nearby.

Owners are very helpful and friendly and all the animals are a bonus too. We liked it so much, we booked to return even before we had left! :)

  We arrived to a great welcome from Paul, Tracey Dillon and Bronwen who live next door. the welcome pack was more than generous. The cottage is on a small-holding with heritage breed sheep, goats chickens and a duck who thought he was a chicken. There was also Mavis and Lilly the two special breed pigs, characterful but no small. The countryside round the cottage and the view from the house is magnificent. In all a superb holiday base

  We couldn't have asked for more. From the wood burning stove to the quality of furniture and fit out. We took our 5 year old grandson who equally enjoyed his stay. Added bonus when Tracy provided feed for the goats and sheep on the farm, which my grandson happily accepted and fed the animals. Lots of toys and dvd's but we were so busy enjoying the location that we never used any of the games. The fresh eggs provided was an extra super touch. Thanks Tracy, Paul and the rest of the family.

• "We enjoyed are stay and this was a great improvement on our holiday last year."

  The animals on site made a big difference for breaking up the stay for our kids. The owners kindly took us for a tour of all the animals and explained their diet and personalities. There were a lot of things you might forget to bring already included in the house like tin foil etc and even home grown eggs from their chickens. The double glazing kept the place quite and we were never woken up by noise.

• "Our second stay at Nant-Isa, which continues to please."

  Lovely greeting from all the family, including the animals, and a nice goodie pack on arrival. Lots to do in the area (we particularly liked Stokesay Castle), with some spectacular walks from the property, some of them challenging, especially for oldies. But the best thing is the peace and quiet, with just the sound of birds and sheep. Highly recommended.

  Reviewed by Keith5.0★May 2022

• "Very clean and well equipped inside the property."

  However it was not private or peaceful. I chose Nant-Isa because it was on an unmade road, so I assumed there would be little or no traffic and more importantly, since I own a dog, I chose it because the description stated, ‘patio and garden’. As in all the properties I have stayed in in 40 years, the garden and/or patio is always enclosed and usually private UNLESS the description says otherwise. The patio was shared with the owners the garden was open to the drive and road,so not dog friendly at all. There were several vehicles and walkers using the road each day which was only a few metres away from the front of the property.

  It gave us the perfect base for the autumn break we were seeking. The cottage is clean and comfortable and very well equipped - a true 'home from home'. The owner is friendly and helpful and provided a generous welcome pack of basic foods to get our holiday started. The goats, pigs and donkeys were a delight when they welcomed us over the fence after our days out. The cottage is warmed by central heating but has the added bonus of the log burner in the sitting room. We really enjoyed our 4 night stay, exploring the local towns and walks. I would recommend this holiday cottage and we hope to return in the future.

  Warm welcome from Paul, Tracey, Bronwyn and Dylan. The cottage is on a smallholding, which accommodates sheep, goats, two donkeys and a pair of affectionate kune-kune pigs, great company visually and audibly.

Nice pub within walking distance, in Stiperstones, and buses run from there to Shrewsbury.
