A beautifully-presented, single-storey, bespoke wooden lodge on a small park of ten lodges, ideally situated beside the River Clun in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the heart of Shropshire's Clun Valley. Immaculate throughout and providing spacious, contemporary accommodation, this wonderful Shropshire lodge sits in a superb position, with the River Clun accessed on three sides, and provides a perfect romantic retreat or peaceful hideaway for those seeking a fishing holiday in an idyllic setting. This lodge near Clun has been thoughtfully decorated and is set entirely across the ground floor. Guests will find two charming bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen with a bright dining area, plus a comfortable sitting area complete with a warming woodburner. Full height glass doors afford attractive views towards the river, and on warm summer evenings they can be swept open to invite inside a cool breeze.

    The shower was somewhat dangerous... very slippery. Kitchen utensils require updating and a few additions. There were very few saucepans, could have done with an additional frying pan, and there needs to be more and updated utensils.

    Everything was there and provided. The location was idyllic - at the end of a small site of 10 lodges with the River Clun running along 3 of its sides.

  • L

    The location is peaceful, just the right place to get away from it all, which this year is even more needed than usual.
