About this property
A charming detached lodge resting in the countryside landscapes of Bicton near Clun. Wander past the natural views and into this cosy little hideaway, perfect for couples or friends. First, you will come to an open plan living, kitchen and dining area, ideal for preparing your favourite dinner time meals, before sitting back in the comfortable armchairs to enjoy the spectacular uninterrupted views of the Clun valley. A woodburning stove is tucked into the corner, and this room creates a soothing atmosphere for an afternoon reading session. The kitchen is laced with bright lights and decorated with heritage colours throughout which projects a quality overtone from start to finish. Take the stairs and you will arrive at a contemporary styled bathroom with attractive features throughout. This leads round to a double bedroom which holds a calming feel and looks out over the garden. A super king-size bedroom is adjacent to this, with a far-stretching window backdrop of open fields and greenery. To the outside of the cottage, lies a lovely gravelled area with furniture, so that you can enjoy a glass of wine, close to the enticing scenery. If this isn't enough, why not take a soak in the lovely hot tub while you admire the views. Further afield, the village of Clun will bring you an abundance of wildlife, and beautiful unhindered walking and cycling routes to enhance your stay. You can also enjoy exploring the historic towns of Bishop's Castle, Presteigne, Ludlow and Shrewsbury. This retreat is a wonderful escape in a dreamy location.
Clun is a rural gem situated in the South Shropshire Hills. It lies on the Shropshire Way in a designated Area of Natural Beauty close to the border of Wales, an area known as The Marches. This unspoilt part of Britain has an abundance of wildlife and walking and cycling routes winding their way through the countryside, with the Clun and Kerry Forests, Offa's Dyke, and Kerry Ridgeway all close by.

Thomasina was most helpful and courteous. Always checked if it was convenient to check the hot tub. Not a problem at all that the owner lived next door. Highly recommend Bicton Lodge.
