The kitchen/diner provides the perfect place to mingle and cook up a storm with exposed stone and well-equipped amenities. Continue into the sitting room and relax in front of the Smart TV with Sky, or curl up with a good book as you admire the woodburning stove. Upstairs there are three neatly presented bedrooms, a king-size with en-suite shower, a king-size and a single which share Jack-and-Jill access to a bathroom. To complete the perfect stay, take a step outside and admire the tiered patio garden at the rear, complete with furniture for a spot of alfresco dining.

Take a step back in time and travel to the Historic hilltop town of Bridgnorth, where you’ll find the beautiful riverside walk as well as the cliff railway, an experience you won’t forget! Church Stretton is also just a short drive away, where you can find the stunning Cardingmill Valley and its breathtaking views, or spend the day exploring the Long Mynd range.

This delightful 700-year old market town lies on the north east end of the famous Wenlock Edge, in the heart of the beautiful Shropshire countryside. Considered the birthplace of the modern Olympic Games, the town is filled with a patchwork of twisting streets, black and white half timbered buildings, limestone cottages, speciality shops, quality pubs and restaurants. Stroll round the remains of the magnificent 12th century priory, 16th century Guildhall, the interesting Norman church and the Old Gaol House. Above the town rises the 15 mile long Wenlock Edge, boasting glorious views and excellent walking, cycling, and riding. Nearby are the wonderful medieval towns of Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth and Ludlow, the World Heritage Centre of Ironbridge with nine museums and Blists Hill Victorian Village, plus the amazing Wroxeter Roman City and Stokesay Castle.

Very clean with all amenities in good working order. Much Wenlock itself is charming, with all the basics available within short walking distance of the cottage and nice walks out in all directions. Highly recommended.
