About this property
Tucked away within a sought-after cul-de-sac in the heart of the historic town of Shrewsbury, rests this wonderful mid-terrace holiday home, Pippin's Place. Enjoying close proximity to a wealth of exciting sights and attractions, along with the rolling countryside of the Shropshire Hills AONB, Pippin's Place is perfectly situated for both families and friends seeking a memorable getaway. Park up in the off-road parking space provided at the foot of this lovely dwelling before unloading your belongings and taking in the delightful setting of your holiday home before heading inside to begin your staycation. Remove any coats and shoes as you step onto the hard wood floor of the welcoming entrance hallway before moving through to the open-plan living/dining room where you can look forward to snuggling up with a family-favourite playing on the TV of an evening. When stomachs start to rumble, discover the well-designed kitchen, beautifully-appointed with a contemporary grey décor and equipped with a range of amenities, including a handy washer/dryer and dishwasher to help keep your space neat and tidy. Whip up a delicious meal and gather together with your loved ones at the dining table, or if you're travelling in the warmer months, venture outdoors to your private garden and fire up the barbeque. As the skies grow darker, retreat indoors, and climb the stairs to the first floor to prepare for bed with an indulgent soak amongst the bubbles in the tub, or if you'd prefer, enjoy a quick rinse under the shower head. Catch your rest in one of two sumptuous bedrooms, with the choice between a super-king-size, offering a TV and a zip/link feature for flexible sleeping arrangements, or a double. If you don't fancy cooking one evening, take the short stroll to reach the centre of Shrewsbury and treat your loved ones to a delicious meal at one of the many eateries on offer; tuck-in to a hearty meal amongst the warmth of an open fire at the Royalist Restaurant, or add a touch of luxury to your stay with a meal prepared by a Michelin star chef at The Walrus Restaurant. For a unique experience, head to Shrewsbury Prison and take the guided tour through the cells of the 18th century jail or discover the sandstone architecture of Shrewsbury Castle and its Shropshire Regimental Museum. For a more leisurely experience, soak in the sites aboard a river cruise, or lose yourself amongst the spectacular landscapes of the Shropshire Hills. Be sure to visit the town of Telford, where you can take the little ones to meet the animals at the Exotic Zoo, work up a sweat at the Inflata Nation Inflatable Theme Park, or treat yourself to a spot of retail therapy at Telford Centre. Take advantage of your close proximity to the border of Wales and head to the nearby towns of Welshpool and Montgomery, or venture further afield and enjoy a costal retreat in Barmouth or Aberystwyth. Make memories that will last a lifetime with a stay at Pippin's Place.

We loved the convenience of the allocated parking, the cleanliness and overall comfort of the accommodation and the proximity of the property to the facilities of the town. The property is in a quiet area and had a good range of garden furniture with a BBQ, which would be a bonus in good weather.

The owners have everything right to make a very comfortable, relaxing holiday house. Exceptionally clean, not cluttered and very nicely furnished, decorated and equipped. Definitely walking distance into lovely Shrewsbury, we did it a few times. Very handy for the railway station as well. We had an excellent stay, thank you.
