Shropshire · 整套乡村小屋 · 2室2床2.0卫 · 可住3人 · Writer's Lodge Cottage Bishop's Castle Shropshire
Restored old building on medieval site, on edge of the Shropshire Hills AOB, in quiet location in central Bishop's Castle. Double and single bedrooms, lovely old furniture, luxurious modern comfort, well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher; walk-in shower downstairs, bathroom upstairs; centrally heated plus log-burner; wi-fi and television. Sleeps up to three adults or two adults and a child. Dogs welcome downstairs. Off street parking, electric charging point and private courtyard. The cottage is a separate building, across a wide yard from the owners' grade-two sixteenth-century house. It has off-street parking and it'sown entrance. The buildings form a peaceful oasis immediately behind the High Street of Bishop’s Castle, one of England’s quirkiest and most unique small towns. We are close to the pubs, restaurants and shops but it’s often so quiet that you can hear the woodpeckers and there’s so little light pollution you can see the Milky Way on clear nights. Visitors have commented that sometimes the only thing they could hear in the mornings were the birds.
Very handy location. The patio, approached by french windows from the property, is an enclosed, spacious paved area with lovely plants and birdsong. It has an extremely comfortable swing seat great for relaxing after a walk. Furnishings comfortable, plenty of cutlery and kitchen equipment. All in all a really good base for those who wish to explore the wonderful walks in the area yet be in the middle of Bishps Castle.
We had a wonderful stay in this charming cottage, furnished with all mod cons, lovely art works, quality fittings & clever touches. The private courtyard is delightful & the surroundings peaceful, right in the heart of Bishops Castle. Caroline was a proactive & friendly host. The lemon drizzle cake was a bonus. Highly recommended!
What a beautiful place, quiet, attractive garden, enclosed courtyard for dog, lovely furnishings and decor, modern attractive kitchen and bathrooms, a pleasure to stay in
Great location - peaceful and hidden away behind main streets. It’s quiet but everything is close by - we visited Three Tuns and Six Bells for dinner and local ales, and the Co-Op shop is vey close. Lovely cottage with everything you need (including great info folder) - and thoughtful welcome gifts of delicious lemon cake, marmalade & milk. Definitely recommend & we’re looking forward to returning. Thank you for a great stay!
Bishop's Castle is usually very peaceful but it's also lively and quirky. It has five pubs and a brewery for a population of around 2,000 people. Apologies if you come during a festival when there can be a lot of live music at the pubs (although they always stop on time). The best thing is to join in - when you're not out walking.
We're almost on the Shropshire Way and only three miles from Offa's Dyke. There's the Long Mynd, the Stiperstones and Bury Ditches (a large iron-age fort) to explore and many other spots which are off the beaten track. Clun ('the quietest place under the Sun') is in the next valley and beautiful Ludow is only twelve miles away. We provide information in the cottage.
