Alison
The accommodation was excellent. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you needed to enjoy a homemade meal or dine on a meal from one of the towns takeaways. The two bathrooms are roomy with large showers and plenty of hot water and towels. Also operating the heating was simple. The gardens are spacious and if the weather had been better I'm sure we would have spent lots of time outside, as the views of the surrounding hills was beautiful. The parking was as described ample. And the position ideal too. There many local walks to every level of fitness, from a gentle woodland stroll to a strenuous hill climb. If you're not a walker Church Stretton is a lovely little town with plenty of independent shops. We had a wonderful time and will hopefully return soon.

I cannot think of anything that could be improved. The quality of bed linen, fixtures and kitchen utensils was great. Highly recommend a stay here, very short walk into Church Stretton where you can find a selection of great places to eat/drink. Will definitely be returning in the future

A real home from home with good quality appliances and very comfortable beds. Excellent location with just a short walk into C. Stretton but really quiet. The owner was very helpful when we had a problem with one of the TVs and replaced it as soon as she was able too. All 3 TVs are App only. Thoroughly recommend a stay at 1 Church Street.
