  We will be rebooking Rockhill Farmhouse next year.

  The accommodation was outstanding. The best accommodation we have ever stayed in. The location was fantastic, walks from the doorstep including one of the best sections of Offas Dyke. The views from the Farmhouse are stunning, you can see Long Mynd, Stiperstones and Wenlock to name a few. Clun offers a shop, pub and towns including Ludlow, Bishops Castle, Church Stretton and Knighton are a short drive away on quiet well kept roads. There is also another lovely cottage onsite so a larger group can stay at Rockhill. The Farmhouse can easily accommodate 4 people with a very well stocked kitchen. The wifi was superfast. The beds were very comfortable, great showers. The lounge with a log fire, smart TV, it is a home from home. There are 4 acres for dogs with dog bags provided. Lovely places to sit out and enjoy the farmland and nightsky. No light pollution or noise it is so peaceful. We could not rate it high enough. Thank you to Eileen, Vaughan and Monty the dog. We will be regulars here, what a great holiday.

  The Rockhill Farmhouse is beautifully furnished to the highest standard with everything you could possibly want.

  It is a real home from home. Vaughan and Eileen gave us a great welcome. The Farmhouse is set idyllic countryside with wonderful views and provides a great base whether you are looking for rest and relaxation or want a more energetic break. There are walks of all degrees of length and difficulty and many cycle tracks. Vaughan happily provided lots of information. There are plenty of historic sites to visit, towns, castles, stately homes and gardens. Clun itself is a sweet village with its own ruined castle. For ‘Foodies’ there is plenty of local produce and many different ‘eateries’. We love Ludlow Farm Shop and the covered Market Hall in Shrewsbury for food shopping and could happily compile a huge list of the places we visited. It is a property we will return to regularly as there will always be something new to explore.

  The accommodation was absolutely superb.

  Facilities far better than I thought, everything that you would need was there. It was super clean, quiet and comfortable. The location was very good too, close enough to drive into Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Leominster and pop over to Wales. Craven Arms is lovely and one thing we did was visit The Land of Lost Content Museum, quirky but brilliant. All those memories came flooding back when we saw all the stuff we'd forgotten about from the 60's & 70's (there is a lot more too) which was 'our' era. Two hours 30 minutes just melted away. There is a supermarket and garden centre, pubs, restaurants and takeaways all really close by. Unfortunately we didn't manage to take in the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre but we will on out next visit. A thoroughly relaxing break.

  Before arrival I had been a little concerned about possible noise as I knew the property was on a working farm, but in fact it was extremely peaceful and quiet.

  There is an amazing view from the main window across fields to distant hills. Comfortable bedroom with good storage. Powerful shower. Good wifi. The main room is open plan kitchen, dining,and sofa area with laminate flooring - practical but not specially cosy. Maybe a rug would help. No garden (there is a small patio) and you are asked not to go in to the yard at the rear (it is a working area), so you do need a car to get out and about. But its a good location, convenient for lots of things. Shropshire is lovely. Watch out for roadworks on the A49 - it was unexpectedly closed one night, in both directions, requiring an extremely long detour.

  A little spartan.

  Though good quality furniture. Very hard mattress. Need a table and chairs outside. But overall great place to stay. So peaceful and quiet. Beautiful scenery. Added bonus of so much wildlife especially birds which was fantastic to see and hear. Lottie is a surprise and delight. As were the horses and wandering sheep. Its a little piece of heaven. The surrounding area, towns and villages are stunning. Highly recommend Clun, Ironbridge, Ludlow, leintwardine and little Stretton. Some fantastic cafes and bars in all of these places. They all work so hard on the farm. Frank and his family were lovely and so helpful. Would definitely stay again.
