2 Bed Cottage in Stretton Westwood

About this property

A beautifully restored dairy parlour set in picturesque farmland, this rural retreat captures far-reaching valley views and offers the perfect base for couples and small families exploring Shropshire together. Located in the peaceful hamlet of Stretton Westwood, next to Wenlock Edge, and offering easy access to the Shropshire Hills National Landscape, this property makes it easy to step out and start exploring verdant countryside and medieval market towns. Historic Much Wenlock (1.5 miles) beckons with its period architecture, the remains of Wenlock Priory, and the popular Much Wenlock Museum. More local history can be found at the National Trust’s Benthall Hall (5.5 miles), where picture-postcard gardens and rolling parkland await exploration. Or visit Ironbridge (7.5 miles), where you'll find 10 museums to explore. Further afield, popular destinations include the county town of Shrewsbury (11 miles), Church Stretton (11 miles), and the market town of Ludlow (16 miles).

Before stepping into this characterful cottage, take a moment to savour its stone-built exterior and the far-reaching countryside views that set the scene for an unforgettable escape. The rural charm continues when you head inside and notice the exposed oak beams that combine with homely, modern comforts. Uncover the light-filled kitchen, which offers everything needed for cooking up holiday feasts. Enjoy each meal at the breakfast table in the kitchen, in the formal dining space, or alfresco out in the rear garden. Two steps down lead to the social heart of the home – the beautiful lounge/diner. Featuring exposed ceiling beams and a roaring wood burner, this is the ideal spot to unwind between your days of outdoor adventure. Here, sink into the soft seating, flick on the Smart TV, and swing open the garden doors on sunny days to let the fresh countryside air pour through. When it’s time to retire for the evening, two restful bedrooms offer a great night’s sleep. Choose from a flexible super-king-size bedroom that converts to a twin room on request, and a king-size bedroom. Serving the bedrooms and completing the property is a well-appointed family bathroom with a bath, separate shower, and WC.

When the sun shines, spill outside to the rear garden, which is laid to lawn. This scenic space offers the perfect spot to gather for al fresco evening tipples and meals, with far-reaching country views as your backdrop. You’ll also benefit from private off-street parking for two cars, making your arrival and day trips easy.
