The second and third bedrooms are also doubles, with one offering the flexibility of a zip/link feature, allowing it to be converted into a twin room on request. Wake up in the morning by jumping into a refreshing shower, or steamy bath. Step outside to the enclosed rear garden, where you can enjoy a morning coffee on the patio, or spend sunny afternoons lounging on the lawn. The garden furniture provides a perfect spot for alfresco dining or simply relaxing with a good book from the selection provided. Venture out of the inviting confines of Plum Hill to encounter Oswestry and its surrounding delights. Begin with a trip to the Shropshire Sculpture Park, housing unique artistry set amidst beautiful landscapes, and continue your exploration at Park Hall, The Countryside Experience and the Old Oswestry Hill Fort, both offering invaluable insights into local history. Savour a meal at Oswald Cross Table Table or The Griffin Inn Oswestry, each offering delightful menus sure to satisfy any palate. A short drive will bring you to Shrewsbury, a bustling market town rich with medieval architecture and the calming oasis of The Quarry, a beautiful riverside park. Tour the historic Shrewsbury Castle and Shrewsbury Abbey before pausing for a refreshing treat at The Shrewsbury Coffeehouse, or relish a sumptuous dinner at The Peach Tree. Cap your day with a memorable evening at The Birds Nest, a vibrant local pub known for its welcoming ambience. Crossing over the border and into Wales, you can find the historic town of Llangollen within easy reach, known for its steam railway and the stunning River Dee running through the town centre. While on the Welsh side of the border, why not visit the glorious Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for a wealth of walking opportunities and scenic viewpoints? Plum Hill is the perfect base for discovering the fascinating intrigue of Shropshire.

The ancient border market town of Oswestry has restaurants and all usual amenities along with its extensive and well preserved hill top Iron Age fort which is great for walking and views. Historic houses and castles with beautiful grounds locally include Chirk and Powis Castle, Erddig and Attingham Park, or visit the nearby market town of Ellesmere, once described by Alan Bennet as Shropshires Lake District. Further afield lies the Welsh mountains and coast and picturesque Lakes Vyrnwy and Bala, while the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge, Medieval Shrewsbury and Roman Chester are also within driving distance.
