Kids loved it. Very comfortable. Owners had a homemade lemon drizzle cake, chocolate and a bottle of wine waiting for us on our arrival. Not a lot around the cottage but if youâre willing to drive 30-50mins to destinations thereâs amazing places around. Two which we would highly recommend are the Shropshire sculpture park and carding mill valley ( perfect for a walk and to dip feet in the reservoir)
