Beautiful cottage in a lovely quiet location. The garden, like the house is an absolute delight. House had everything thing you could need open fire was a lovely focal point on the cold evenings. Lack of a shower would be a draw back for some but taking it in turns to use the bath took us back to our childhoods in the 1960's. Lots to do within a relatively short drive and we would definitely visit again. Thank you

Walnut Tree Cottage was a traditional thatched house in a quiet location with a beautiful garden.Very comfortable and well equipped. It was great to have a real fire in addition to central heating.A good location close to a number of National Trust properties and in an area where it was possible to walk from the house.We ate out at the pub at Leintwardine and the fish and chip shop. Both had excellent food.
