Guests enjoy the wildlife, the cosy atmosphere, and the hot tub, with many finding it exceeds expectations. The lodge's remote setting offers a peaceful retreat with friendly locals and a community spirit. Some guests mention the approach road is narrow and bumpy, and the hot tub requires manual heating, but these are minor compared to the overall exceptional experience.
Guests consistently note the lodge's cleanliness, describing it as very clean and well-maintained, contributing to a comfortable and relaxing stay.
The lodge's location is celebrated for its tranquility and proximity to nature reserves and walking trails. However, some guests note the approach road is narrow and the walk to local amenities can be steep.
Reviews frequently mention the lodge's comfort, with a cosy wood burner, comfortable beds, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes guests feel at home.
The lodge is well-equipped with modern amenities, though some guests mention minor issues with the hot tub heating and occasional maintenance matters. The wood-fired hot tub is unique but requires effort to heat.
Many guests appreciate the thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and homemade cake on arrival, enhancing the welcoming feel of the lodge. While such gifts are warmly received, they are a personal touch and may not be a standard offering for every stay.
Stunning rustic, wooden lodge nestled in the natural woodland at the foot of the Stiperstones Hill range, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty amidst the Shropshire Hills. Wilderness Lodge is the perfect destination for friends and family looking for a luxury getaway or a romantic break in perfect tranquil surroundings. Beautifully furnished throughout in keeping with its rustic theme, the lodge is all on one floor. Head into the spacious open plan living area, which has many welcoming features including a woodburner, comfortable sofas, well-equipped kitchen and French doors opening out onto the surrounding decking. From the open plan living area you will find a lovely bathroom and two double bedrooms, all stylishly furnished. On cool evenings the sitting area with its warming woodburner is the perfect place to relax or on warmer evenings there is ample space on the decking to sit back and gaze at the stars. Whatever the time of day or year, the soothing hot tub will add that extra bit of luxury to your stay in this lovely wooden lodge. Outside, the decking extends around two sides of the lodge and overlooks the natural pond in the garden within the natural surroundings of this lovely wooded area. The popular Stiperstones village pub and the local shop are just 10 minutes on foot, and there are wonderful scenic walks and mountain bike trails on your doorstep. Why not spend a day visiting the historic county town of Shrewsbury with its medieval architecture, individual shops, riverside walks and cafés and restaurants? For history lovers the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge with its many museums, including the Living History Museum at Blists Hill is a must or perhaps touring round visiting the variety of National Trust properties and lovely gardens in the area might be more to your liking. There are many pretty towns and villages in this part of Shropshire, including Much Wenlock, Church Stretton, Bridgnorth and Ludlow and if you want to venture further afield you are within easy travelling distance to Oswestry and across into Mid Wales. This lovely rustic Stiperstones lodge is a superb base for friends and family to explore Shropshire, whatever the season.
The village of Stiperstones nestles in an unspoilt valley on the slopes of the beautiful Stiperstones Hill range and is only eight miles from the delightful Church Stretton and 12 miles from the historic towns of Shrewsbury and Bishops Castle. This small Shropshire village boasts a shop and charming inn and is a perfect starting point for many scenic trails, with the summit of the famous Stiperstones Hill, a 1.5 mile walk, and the East Ridge Wood mountain bike trails very close by.

It is situated in some stunning countryside. So very peaceful and relaxing. Would highly recommend this lodge.
Fern
The character of the Lodge has been carefully created and it is comfortable and spacious. Location near a well stocked shop AND good pub is excellent although anyone with a low sports car might struggle with the lane to the property. Recommended additions for even more perfection would be a shaving socket in bathroom(s) for shaver or electric toothbrush and lidded bin for outdoor rubbish (it is raided by the wildlife). Wonderful place - thank you.

The only downside was how dark it is inside, lights needed to be on all the time. Otherwise it was great, surrounded by great scenery and lots of local walks. The local friendly pub served good food and lots to do in this part of Shropshire.
