About this property
A lovely 19th century barn conversion in a courtyard location on 250 acres of farmland in the scenic Hope Valley. Beautifully converted, combining modern living with original character, with exposed oak and pine beams, oak floors and a luxury bathroom, as well as shared use of a games room and gym. A lovely Westhope cottage, perfect for a romantic or a family holiday. Note: Cottage is next to Refs. 1863, 12657, 12658, 26471 and 947385, together they sleep 50.
The scattered village of Westhope is located amidst rolling farmland at the southern foot of the famous Wenlock Edge in Hope Valley. The area is home to numerous walks, rambling trails and cycle routes whilst many of Shropshire's main attractions are within easy driving distance of the village itself. Visitors can enjoy Church Stretton - known to the Victorians as Little Switzerland - with its antique shops and tea-rooms, in the midst of the beautiful Long Mynd Hills and close to the Acton Scott Historic Working Farm and the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre. The World Heritage Site at Ironbridge, Attingham Park, the market towns of Much Wenlock, Shrewsbury and Ludlow are all within easy reach, leaving visitors to the area spoiled for choice.

A few things fall outside of Sykes' control. One being noisy neighbours! They had a riot in the first proper sunshine of the year which kind of ruined our hot tub quiet until they left on the Monday. Also they parked in the Cowshed allocated parking spot. We parked elsewhere but it was inconsiderate for my 87 year old father. Note the lanes are a bit precarious for nervous (or impatient) drivers. It was difficult adhering to keeping the dog off furniture and downstairs. There's a door to stop him going upstairs (which we managed) but off furniture during the night would be impossible as its open-plan. Hence we always travel with throws to amply cover a small area of a sofa and protect it well. We move cushions to stop him jumping on elsewhere. This works when we can't watch him. We thankfully gave my recently widowed father a great holiday. The ground floor facilities suited him; we visited so many places and all had a holiday to remember.

The property was clean and comfortable and ideally situated in a very quiet rural location. Excellent heating system, which we actually had to turn down!
