Guests unanimously report the cottage to be immaculately clean, with multiple reviews highlighting spotlessness and well-maintained surroundings.

Comfort is a strong point, with guests finding the cottage cosy and the beds very comfortable. The only minor issue mentioned was the sloping ceilings causing occasional bumps.

Fabulous gem of a cottage in rural Shropshire but with easy access to Shrewsbury, Ludlow and church Stretton. Fiona added a real personal touch, she was friendly and very helpful. She provided a wonderful welcome hamper. I would definitely recommend

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Orchard View, despite inclement weather, as it sits in a delightful rural location allowing easy access to Shrewsbury, Church Stretton and the glorious Shropshire countryside. When weather permitted, we were able to visit these locations and took advantage of the summerhouse, home cinema, numerous books and local travel information when choosing to stay indoors. Our hosts were very welcoming, providing a lovely hamper on arrival, and the property very comfortable with good facilities.
