About this property

This delightful end-terrace cottage in the desirable village of Condover, is just 10 minutes’ drive from Shrewsbury, Shropshire’s county town. Borrower’s Cottage was formerly two cottages converted into one and is situated in an ideal location for exploring this beautiful county. On entering the cottage you will notice the character features of the property including the original oak beams and feature fireplaces in many of the rooms. The well-presented kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed to prepare some good home-cooked meals to then enjoy in the dining room. The sitting room has two comfy sofas with a welcoming woodburner; a wonderful place to relax after a busy day out and about exploring the area. Within the cottage there are two sets of stairs; one set leading up to the double bedroom, dressing room/nursery and family bathroom whilst the second staircase leads up to the pretty single bedroom. To the rear of the cottage is a private courtyard garden, equipped with patio furniture, making it an inviting place to enjoy outdoor dining or a glass of something chilled. From the doorstep there are a wealth of walking opportunities with numerous footpaths leading through the surrounding farm land and unspoilt countryside. The village of Condover has a Post Office and is also home to Shrewsbury Golf Club. There's plenty to see and do in the area, including visits to Shrewsbury, Church Stretton, the Long Mynd and the South Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Whatever you decide to do, Borrower’s Cottage is an ideal place to explore this wonderful county of Shropshire at any time of the year.

    In a super quiet but very handy village location, close to Shrewsbury and Attingham Park (NT) but also not far (c. 35 mins drive) from Powis Castle and the Shropshire Hills area for Cardingmill and Stiperstones. Stokesay Castle and Ironbridge are also good places to visit. The cottage is warm and cosy with excellent kitchen facilities. We appreciated the beautiful vase of roses in the window, the wine and goodies on our arrival and the Christmas decorations. The owner was exceptionally attentive and kind. We loved our stay. I can't recommend the cottage highly enough.

    Ro was a very thoughtful host, we especially loved the treats we found on arrival at the cottage. We had brilliant sunny weather which allowed us to enjoy lots of walking in the local area. The views from both Lyth Hill and Carding Mill Valley are amazing and the snowdrops along the woodland walk at Attingham Park were lovely. We visited Ludlow on Saturday and had fun strolling round the local market. The cottage is in a brilliant location with so many lovely places to visit not far away. We enjoyed lighting the wood burner each evening and ate in most nights (the kitchen is well equipped to prepare your own meals) but can throughly recommend the food at Dorrington Horseshoes, the pub in the next village. My husband had the roast of the day and I had pie of the day, both very tasty and served with lots of fresh veg. Thank you Ro for sharing your lovely cottage. It was a joy to return to each evening.

    The ceilings are low but this is stated in the description. As with another reviewer I would have found it useful to have a washing machine as we were there two weeks, although I can see there is limited places to put one. Ro was great at keeping in touch and messaged to check we were OK.
