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

The Caradoc is very well equipped, everything has been considered so we wanted for nothing. We were perfectly situated for exploring the Shropshire Hills, Shrewsbury and the surrounding area and yet, when we returned each day, we felt like we were miles from anywhere. We were blessed with good weather during our stay and would sit outside in the early evening watching the swifts darting back and forth, plucking insects out of the air to eat, and then swopping in and out of the stables, presumably to feed their young. Bliss!
