    The property is well located for exploring the whole of Shropshire and parts of Wales. Caradoc was very clean, comfortable and equipped with everything anyone would need and is well designed with a modern feel. Definitely recommend and give *****

  • Michelle

    Peaceful & relaxing surroundings. Hosts made you feel more than welcome, provided us with all the local amenities to complete our stay. Enjoyed the picnic bench down by the stream watching the dragonflies & most of all spotting a kingfisher while enjoying a glass of wine. Highly Recommend to others. We will definitely be looking to return, not only to relax but also to see Tracey & David as they were the perfect hosts. Michelle & Paul
