We have had an amazing two week stay in this stunning cottage! It is so comfortable, and everything has been thought of to make your stay enjoyable. Great to have a cottage where the owners have really cared about it and made it look so special. The location is perfect, so quiet and Long Mynd literally on your doorstop.

Absolutely perfect stay! Lovely little welcome basket, lots of places to go and see nearby but also nicely tucked away from everything. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet and amazing thunderstorms that we could listen to in the bedroom. And when sat outside we had some sheep visitors. Lots of DVDs and books available.Very clean and beautifully decorated, we are excited to return!
