Lovely accommodation with three spacious bedrooms, large lounge with cozy logburner, and a large kit
Lovely accommodation with three spacious bedrooms, large lounge with cozy logburner, and a large kitchen with island to comfortably seat and dine 6 people. Hot-tub was a bonus! Great communication from Jack who I felt I would be able to message at any time with queries or problems. Location is just a short drive to Church Stretton with the Long Mynd behind it and Styping Stones just beyond that.

Great place for a family gathering - fabulous kitchen and beautiful bedrooms.
Great place for a family gathering - fabulous kitchen and beautiful bedrooms. Very spacious, clean, warm and quiet. Only issues were none of the TVs had a signal (we had 3 kids with us) and there were no tea towels or dish cloths left for us to use. Small issues amongst all the good but worth mentioning as these things can be put right for future guests.

Great experience of a barn conversion, very quirky with regars bedroom layout, pulls you in to the comfort of home with the relaxation of being on holiday.3 small things that could help, 1, sofas are very deep could do with bigger fuller cushions.2, need a container to put ashes in.3, Each bedroom has a TV but not all receive reception.
