Cleanliness

Unfortunately we’ve been unable assess this category comprehensively enough based on the reviews we’ve received from guests about this property.

Location

The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and proximity to walking paths and local attractions. The rural setting offers peace and quiet, with guests appreciating the cottage's idyllic placement amidst the Shropshire countryside.

Comfort

Guests find the cottage comfortable, noting the cosy log burner, comfortable beds, and homely feel. The property's old-world charm adds to the comfort, although a few guests mentioned it could get chilly, which was mitigated by heaters and the fire.

Facilities

The cottage is well-equipped with necessary modern conveniences alongside its vintage charm. However, some guests noted areas for improvement such as the non-working Rayburn and the slippery decking when wet. The presence of a great shower and well-appointed kitchen are frequently mentioned positives.

Thoughtfulness

The owners' thoughtfulness is evident through personal touches like bird food and a welcome pack. While such gifts are warmly received, they are a gracious bonus and may vary with each stay. The provision of bird food, in particular, is a recurring highlight for guests.

About this property

A charmingly-presented rural detached bungalow in the Shropshire hamlet of Hatton which is near to Church Stretton in the heart of the rolling Shropshire hills. With views across the countryside and to the hills beyond, the bungalow provides country-style accommodation, ideal for friends and family to spend time together all year round. Set all on one level, the bungalow has been furnished, in-keeping with its rural location with quarry tiled floors and parquet flooring adding to its charm. The country-style kitchen has a feature Rayburn stove (not in use) and is well equipped for your stay. Head on into the sitting room and snuggle up to the warming woodburning stove or, in warmer weather, throw open the French windows and step out onto the decked area to make the most of the garden and views beyond. The two bedrooms have attractive iron bedsteads, complementing the rural cottage style. The large conservatory is an ideal place for everyone to relax and enjoy the surrounding countryside views, to admire the pretty cottage garden or to stargaze late into the night. The garden slopes gently away from the bungalow and is a haven for birds with its mature trees and shrubs. The decked area is perfect for alfresco dining or relaxing with a good book. The region has much to offer, with fabulous walks and cycle rides on your doorstep. Why not spend a day or two exploring one of the many market towns, of which this area has plenty, including Ludlow, Shrewsbury and Church Stretton? The Longmynd and the Stiperstones offer stunning panoramic views and excellent walking and birdwatching or immerse yourself in Victorian lifestyles by visiting the nearby Acton Scott Working Farm Museum or one of the heritage sites at Ironbridge. With the excellent road links less than two miles away you can set off towards Herefordshire, Wales and Shropshire to sample any number of places of historical and geographical interest. A lovely, cosy bungalow, with old world charm, in a beautiful rural location, perfect for getting away from it all.
