  We really enjoyed our stay at the Chapel, the location was perfect.

  We didn’t mind the other property being close, although it did only have guests over the weekend so we were alone for the week. The hot tub was a winner after a long day. The beds were very comfortable, plenty of space downstairs to spread out and have some quiet time when needed. A few things to note (did not affect our stay at all!) The frying pans could do with replacing as everything sticks, there were no spare bin liners under the cupboard as mentioned. We did purchase and leave a knife sharpener as the knives were all very blunt. Kitchen was well equipped however. The right side of the toaster did trip the electrics a couple of times on the last couple of days. We couldn’t use the fire as the flue lever was broken and just laying to the side of the fire. (The Chapel was quite warm everyday anyway so not too much of an issue). PLEASE be careful when going int the garden if it’s wet, the paving slabs are extremely slippery, an elderly member slipped and fell when stepping out into the garden via the games room, luckily just bruising. We did scrub these afterwards but it didn’t seem to make much difference. The garden space itself if lovely, the dog really enjoyed running around in the back field, it’s pretty secure but we did remain with them in case they managed to find a way out. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would return. The Red Cow Inn and Butchers Arms which are both recommended in the welcome book were both lovely places to eat and a 5minute drive, very welcoming and dog friendly.

  Exceptionally clean and tidy accommodation in nice setting.

  Very well organised, immaculate grounds. Felt very safe in terms of potential transmission of Covid 19. Parking good. Owner on site and available, very friendly - but not intrusive. Everything looked newly decorated and all furnishings including those in the kitchen were pristine. There were a few things which would improve the experience - but none would prevent us from staying again. These include: Lounge much smaller than looks on pictures with TV set way too high in wall to be watched comfortably - usually not an issue for us, but with poor weather it presented a slight problem. Only one tea towel and one towel per person which may have been deliberate due to current infection risks - and may have been indicated in blurb about property, but if it was I missed it. No washing machine/drying facilities other than heated towel rail. No dishwasher - which was not a problem and certainly not a deal breaker, but surprising given amount of space available in the kitchen. Fridge and freezer way too small for 6 people (total number of potential guests). If some of these suggestions could be taken on board , we would give the facilities a 5 star rating.

  We were greeted on arrival, after a long 8 hour drive, by a lovely couple who opened the cottage and gave us a pint of milk.

  They are there if you need them but otherwise you are left alone. Bags are provided for the kitchen rubbish and collected daily if put outside. There were tea bags, coffee and delicious, quality biscuits to welcome us. The cottage was roomy, warm and comfortable for a cold November. The area is very quiet, horse in a field in one direction and cows and sheep in others. A very rural area with just a country road passing by. The village of Sherburn with Coop, post office and wonderful bakers is nearby and a sizeable village shop in Ludworth, even nearer in the other direction. There was just two of us but the cottage sleeps six and we could choose our bed! A double and a twin are upstairs with lovely views over the countryside. The double has an ensuite with sink and toilet. The bathroom down stairs is a good size. The whole place is tastefully decorated and very modern, it is spotlessly clean. Plenty of good towels match the bathroom decor. We were very contented there. The couple came out of their cottage in the same grounds to say goodbye when we left at 7am after our 12 night stay.

  Wow, what a fantastic cottage this is.

  The cottage is extremley well appointed, with very modern kitchen and bathrooms. The bedrooms are very comfortable and the facilities required are all covered. Annie was brilliant with communication, from letting us know we could enter the cottage earlier on arrival day to helping us with recycling arrangements, to feedback when we left the cottage. The cottage is perfectly placed in Much Wenlock for access to everything that Shropshire and Much Wenlock have to offer and believe me, it has tons to offer in things to see and do. If you are looking for a top quality cottage to use as a base for your visit to Shropshire, then look no further. With all this cottage has to offer and with the helpfullness of Annie you cannot fail to have a great time and be able to do it living in complete comfort. We have visited Shropshire many times over the years, but without a doubt, this cottage was the best.

  We had a really lovely stay at Bramble Cottage and felt very comfortable and welcomed there.

  The cottage was spotlessly clean and spacious and the welcome basket including tea, coffee, biscuits and milk was very appreciated by a big family like ours. The owners, who live in an adjacent property on the farm, were friendly and helpful, recommending local places to visit and things to see and do. They also gave us homegrown lettuce, onions and potatoes from the farm which we thought was so kind (and the produce was delicious!) The cottage is well located just a short drive to Durham city centre and is surrounded by gorgeous landscape and some lovely pubs. The Farmers Arms, a 10 minute walk away, was our favourite. We also enjoyed a trip to the nearby dairy farm to buy flavoured milk from their bespoke vending machine. We would definitely recommend this accommodation as well as a visit to this beautiful part of the UK.
