Burrills View is a well-received cottage, praised for its comfort, beautiful location, and thoughtful touches like homemade bread. The hot tub is a highlight, and the owners are commended for their helpfulness. While some guests noted cleanliness and maintenance issues, these seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
Most guests found the cottage comfortable and well-equipped, though a few noted cleanliness issues such as dust and cobwebs. These comments suggest room for improvement, but overall, the property seems to maintain a good standard of cleanliness.
The cottage is consistently described as being in a beautiful and private location, ideal for exploring Shropshire and enjoying local walks and pubs. However, one review mentioned road noise, slightly impacting the score.
Guests generally found the cottage very comfortable, with plenty of space and amenities. Some minor suggestions for improvement were made, such as providing more towels and space for personal items in one of the bedrooms.
The facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen and a hot tub, were appreciated by guests. Maintenance issues were raised by some, indicating that while the facilities are good, there is a need for attention to detail in upkeep.
Many guests mentioned thoughtful gestures such as homemade bread and provisions. While these gifts are warmly appreciated, it's important to note that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed with every stay.

Upon arrival we found no electricity to some of the lights , not ideal in the dark when you don’t know where anything is.Managed to contact the owner eventually who redder the trips in the consumer unit.This was caused by rain water getting into the outside lights in the decking which they are aware of.Cleanliness was not good.First job was to hoover the sofa and living room as this was filthy , this was not a pleasant experience as the smell from the hoover was horrendous.You could also write your name in the dust on the tv .Not the best start to a holiday.All in all it could do with some maintenance and decoration.Also I must mention the road noise as the property is close to a fast stretch of A road.

Lovely, cosy, well equipped cottage, in a private and beautiful location. Hot tub was great, very well positioned and lit, to get into from the cottage. Home made bread was gratefully received. Only suggestion would be more towels provided upfront for a 5 night stay, especially a hand towel in the downstairs bathroom. Otherwise, perfect.Thank you to the owners.
