We really enjoyed staying at The Parlour, just wished it was longer, we plan and hope to go back in the summer. The Parlour was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. The garden was great being enclosed for Dickie. Couldn't fault anything.

Thank you for a wonderful stay at The Parlor in November.The barn is beautiful, cosy and so warm. There's the added bonus of a log burner, which we didn't end up using as the barn stays toasty just with the central heating.The kitchen is very well equipped and has a little utility room just off of it. The barn has been well thought out, with lots of storage space.It's very peaceful there, we felt really relaxed throughout our stay. Our host Donna lives just next door and was very welcoming. The welcome basket was a lovely gesture with some essentials you may need if you hadn't managed to get to the shops on route.There is an enclosed field just around the corner from the Parlor where our labrador Maggie could have a walk, which she loved. There is also a lovely garden to the front of the property. We could imagine sitting outside on the patio in the summer months, so hope to return!The weather was kind to us during our stay. Shropshire is such a beautiful area to explore and lots to see and do.We would highly recommend this property.Many thanks again for a lovely stay.Jen, George and Maggie!
