Very nice place though a little remote - but that suited us. There are plenty of places to visit, though some travelling was involved. We ate out each evening, though this again involved travelling. The nearest pub was only serving food on three evenings a week, and this was a similar story in other places. In general, we avoided Shrewsbury because I had some difficulty finding my way about, and parking was difficult. I tried Park and ride, but the council had moved the entrance and not changed the signs! However, when I did find it - the park and ride service was good and cheap.

Absolutely lovely cottage in a quiet location but well situated to various tourist attractions like Powis Castle, Attingham house and the Ironworks sculpture park. The owners Nora and Simon are very welcoming and friendly. The welcome pack was lovely and the added touches such as shampoo and hand cream in the bathrooms, dishwasher and washing machine tabs made the place feel like a home from home. The cottage is well furnished and has modern appliances and a modern cottage feel. Beds were very comfortable.
