• "Having had many delightful holidays in my home town of Shrewsbury, staying with my Labradoodle in Severn Way Cottage this trip was no exception."

  The cottage is immaculately clean and comfortable. There are clear instructions regarding appliances, recycling etc. The friendly, considerate owners respond quickly and efficiently to any issues. The setting of the cottage, a few minutes away from the Quarry Park, alongside the River Severn is just perfect. You can walk into Shrewsbury town centre and explore beautiful historic buildings, independent shops and an abundance of cafes/restaurants in ten minutes. Ludlow and Church Stretton should also be on the excursion list.

• "A fabulous cottage situated close to all Shrewsbury has to offer."

  The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with absolutely everything on hand. We were very relaxed and comfortable here. I would have loved to have had a small sofa in the front room because it’s such a light and sunny space but that’s not a complaint. A very happy stay and we would happily return.

• "This was our second stay at Severn Way Cottage and once again it did not disappoint."

  The cottage is very comfortable and very well equipped. It is spotlessly clean and provides a brilliant base to explore Shrewsbury. It is in a fabulous location being so close to the River Severn, The Quarry Park and the town centre. You are spoilt for choice for excellent places to eat (dog friendly), all within 5 mins walking distance. If you have a dog, the garden is very secure and the Quarry Park is a lovely wide open space just minutes away from the cottage. All in all a very enjoyable stay.

• "Thank you so much for a brilliant week at Severn Way Cottage - Martin and Jill."

  When I arrived, I moaned about the tight parking space. As it happens, we were so comfortable and happy wandering around Shrewsbury for an entire week, that we only moved the car when we very reluctantly left. Great cottage. Everything you need within easy walking distance.

• "This is a lovely cottage in an ideal location."

  Standards of cleanliness are very high and it is very well equipped with all necessary items. The beds are comfortable with good quality linen; sofas etc comfortable too. It was easy to walk into town and enjoy the Quarry. Stairs are quite steep. Parking is fine although perhaps more suited to a smaller car. Overall, a very pleasant place to stay.

• "Lovely 2 bedroom cottage in a great location right in the heart of Shrewsbury."

  Spotlessly clean, nicely decorated with everything you need here. Large well fitted kitchen and comfy bedrooms and lounge. 2 mins walk to the river and 5-10 minutes into town. Swimming pool and park just across the foot bridge with various pubs and restaurants a short walk away. Parking space is a bonus although maybe a little tight for larger cars but very handy. Some building work going on next door but didn’t cause us any inconvenience. Happy to recommend and would definitely like to go back. Thank you for lovely stay.

  It is one of many visits to Severn Way cottage and I never fail to be impressed with its immaculate interior. Cleanliness is second to none, the kitchen well equipped and the bed extremely comfortable. It is also bonus to have two bathrooms. Beautifully situated for strolls in the stunning Quarry Park and close to many attractive amenities in Shrewsbury.

  The property was comfort and had everything we needed. We loved the location and being so close to the town centre and beautiful walks. The interior was tastefully decorated and had plenty of seating. It was nice being spread over three floors and a bonus to have 2 bathrooms. The only issue was parking at the back was a little tight, but with so much to do in town we barely used the car. Highly recommend the town and this property.

• "Wonderful, comfortable place to stay for four adults."

  Excellently equipped. If we had to find a flaw -- and this is a sign of how good everything else was -- it's that the ceiling light fixture in the lounge was a bit low for our two 6-footers, and we each banged our heads a few times. Great location as well in Frankwell -- a short stroll over the Severn into the heart of Shrewsbury. Would definitely stay again.

  The house was amazingly equipped, clean and extremely comfortable throughout. Its location meant access to many things, either by foot or a short drive away. Our visits included a National Trust Property in Staffordshire. The RAF Museum at Cosford. Iron Bridge and the Victorian Centre.

  Attractively decorated and very well equipped. Very comfortable, including mattresses, sofas etc. All appliances worked perfectly. Extremely clean and well maintained. Warm and cosy. Very clear instructions / information booklet provided for guests. We would highly recommend staying here. (Probably not suitable for guests with accessibility issues as the staircases are a little steep and the property is on three floors. This was not an issue for us though and is just an observation which we hope might be helpful to potential guests).

  It is ideal for the beautiful park and town. SevernTheatre is near by and worth a visit . Lovely river walks on the Severn way and just down the road from cottage. This is an ideal accommodation for couples or those with older children but definitely not for toddlers or semi disabled as two flights of stairs. One from kitchen and bathroom up to dining room and sitting room. The other up to 2 bedrooms and shower room /toilet.A small garden with outdoor furniture. Keypad locked gate to garden so very private. We would definitely recommend this cottage. Been twice and will be back.

  The location of the cottage is perfect for riverside walks and strolls in Shrewsbury's scenic park, The Quarry; both just a few minutes away. The property is clean, well equipped and comfortable, while the enclosed garden creates a safe space for doggie guests. I love the historic town with its independent shops, cafes, restaurants, independent cinema and theatre. Ludlow, with its artisan market, castle and historic centre is a must. Haughmond Hill, Attingham Park, Church Stretton, Mich Wenlock and Ellesmere Lake offer both beautiful walks and delightful cafes. Further afield Chester with its original rows provides a stunning day out. I am already planning my next visit to Severn Way Cottage.

  Everything we needed was supplied and the cottage was extremely clean so thank you for that! The cottage is ideally situated for a quick walk into Shrewsbury through the park which is directly behind. For a convenient evening meal or drink we would recommend The Armoury. The staff are all very welcoming and efficient. Places we visited and would recommend are Attingham Park, Dudmaston Hall (if possible do the art tour it is so interesting especially the Spanish section), Chirk Castle and Chirk aqueduct, of course Ironbridge and museums. If you like walking then you have to do Carding Mill Valley and Long Mynd. We were so lucky with the weather. Absolutely beautiful panoramic views. Once again thank you for a wonderful week!

  The decor is fresh and uncluttered but retaining features appropriate to the age of the property. Beautiful fireplaces in the bedrooms.

  The Quarry is bustling with activity; with two boathouses competitive rowing or training on the river is a daily occurrence. There are also other water sports on offer. The cottage is extremely close to the Theatre Severn and the historic town centre, with its wealth of independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. Severn Way cottage was immaculately clean-its pristine condition is instantly apparent. It is comfortable and has everything you could require. A sympathetic renovation has been carried out and I loved staying there. Instructions for appliances and the location of the cottage are clear. The fact that there is a secure garden is a bonus when you are staying with a dog. My labradoodle quickly learnt that the idyllic river walk was just down the lane!
