About this property
Ludlow 4 miles. Situated on a smallholding in the Shropshire Hills AONB, on the outskirts of the thriving town of Ludlow, is this exceptional annexe, resting in 10.5 acres of land and positioned next door to the owner's home. Entering a private driveway, find the front entrance where you can step into open-plan living space, with all the facilities and furnishings you could need for a remote break to the countryside. Stepping into this well-designed, open-plan interior, you will be greeted to a wonderful base for a relaxing evening curled up with your partner on the sofa. Delight in the provided TV for keeping up to date with your favourite shows, whilst the electric woodburning stove provides that added bit of warmth during those chillier months. The kitchen is amply-equipped with everything you could need for a weekend in the countryside, whilst the dining area is the perfect spot for a hearty breakfast and planning the days ahead. Externally, the property has a wonderful patio garden area, with delightful views across the countryside, the ideal place to sit out with a refreshing drink and a good book. While you're in the area, take a drive towards the bustling town of Ludlow, where you will discover a wealth of tourist attractions. Ludlow Castle is a medieval fortress with restored Norman citadel towers and boasting wonderful country and riverside views. Also close by, why not spend the day at Ludlow racecourse and enjoy a day out getting dressed up and enjoying a few glasses of bubbly. Venture towards the Shropshire Way, a long distance footpath spanning across 139 miles and is the perfect opportunity for those keen walkers and cyclists, with plenty pf nearby lakes and rivers for a spot of fishing or sailing.

The location is very remote but ideal for a relaxing and peaceful break. We were welcomed with a lovely fruit cake, fresh flowers and a pint of milk which was lovely. Would be happy to recommend this cottage to anyone.
