A lovely comfortable property, great to return to each day.. Lots of space and really well equipped. Delicious bakes as well as milk and wine left as a welcome by the owner. Hours of fun in the games room with the pool table and juke box. We will definitely return.

Mrs Bicknell, September 2020

Recommend Sunningdale, with special thanks to Mr & Mrs Leake as Sunningdale meet all our expectations and more.. The House was very clean and we have never stayed in self catering accommodation which so well equipped, with all the little finishing touches, which were so unexpected and welcome. Mrs Leake also went out of her way to make Gluten free shortbread & lemon slices, in addition to the other cakes & biscuits which were very much enjoyed by "the other half". Thank you both. Home has beautiful gardens and we made the most of them after a day out to sit out with a cuppa on the patio, with only the sounds of the birds in the pergola. Once battle with the Covid situation has been won we hope to return to fully enjoy the wonderful historic sites that Shropshire has to offer. Would recommend Stokesay Castle, book a day tour on the Severn Valley Heritage Railway and visit RAF Cosford Museum. Did not use any of the eateries in Ludlow but did make a trip to the Ludlow Farm Shop, a little more expensive than supermarkets but the steak we bought was the best we have ever eaten.

Mrs Bush, September 2020

Ideal location for walking into Ludlow.. The property is well furnished and extras, wine and homemade cakes were special. As for the games room, with 'Duke Box' what a surprise!

Mr Ellis, September 2020

August 2020

This was our second visit to Sunningdale, having last visited in June 2018, so we knew that it would be an excellent choice, fulfilling our every need and comfort.. Despite visiting during Covid 19, the stay for all four of us was most enjoyable. The only difference was the request to bring our own sette e cushions. It was kind of the owners to again greet us personally on arrival and leave home made cakes, wines, biscuits, milk and drinks sachets. The garden was as beautiful as ever. Ludlow was opening up and as interesting and welcoming as ever. Most restaurants were open though some on restricted times and we enjoyed many of their freely delivered takeaways.

Mr Beach, August 2020

July 2020

Lovely welcome with home baked cakes and wine.. Friendly hosts. Plenty of kitchen equipment. DVD's and games room great entertainment Only downside was a Large bird feed table in house next door that attracted a lot of pigeons and neighbourhood cats!

Mrs Griffiths, July 2020

November 2019

Beautiful house.. Clean and Well equipped. Owners kind & friendly. Lovely treats left for us. Good location -only 20 minutes walk to the town centre. Parking for 3 cars. This is the 2nd time that we have stayed here and have already booked it for next year. Highly recommend the property

A very well equipped and comfortable house with a great games room and a beautiful garden Most comfortable beds a a great p;lace to stay

Ms Williams, November 2019

We spent a very enjoyable week at Sunningdale this Autumn.. The house is spotlessly clean, and well equipped for dining in. As the weather was wet most of the time we appreciated coming back to a warm and comfortable home at the end of the day. I particularly liked the reclining furniture in the sitting room! We were on holiday with our two grown-up sons and there was plenty of space for everyone. The beds are comfortable. The garden is a large arbour with summer house and sitting areas which would be lovely in sunny weather. There is plenty of space for parking in front of the house. Sunningdale is located in a quiet area about 5 minutes walk from the centre of Ludlow so there is no need to drive for shopping or eating out. The owners live next door - very friendly but in no way intrusive. We would happily return. Highly recommended.

Mrs Gambles

March 2019

We love Sunningdale, it is the second time we have stayed there, the extra touches are brilliant ( Wine; biscuits, milk & cakes are a lovely extra.. Sunningdale is a beautiful house with everything you need & the added bonus of a games room. We will definitely go back.

Miss Wells

The cottage is in a good location and is very well equiped.. We received lovely homemade cakes and biscuits on arrival, along with wine. The garden is beautiful, and we found plenty to amuse us in the area for the two weeks we were there, including, of course, pool and air hockey in the games room.

Mrs Crompton

This is the second time we've stayed at Sunningdale and it won't be the last.. The house is just so lovely, the beds are comfy, it's spotlessly clean and just has a great feeling. It's also very quiet even though it's just a 10 minute walk into the centre of Ludlow and 5 minutes from the train station. The kitchen is very well equipped and we just love the quirky 1930's vibe of the decor and furnishings. The garden is also great with lots of little nooks and crannies to sit in during the day or to relax in after a day at the market. Ludlow is a great place to visit with the castle and riverside walks, and of course the great food but it's also a great centre for touring and visiting other towns and attractions such as Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester and the Welsh border country.

Mrs Quick

February 2019

Such a wonderful holiday experience.. We arrived to home made cakes, biscuits, milk, 2 bottles of wine and a wide selection of tea and hot chocolate. All rooms were spotless, well decorated and very homely. There were folders supplying us with local information. Would definitely consider staying here again.

Mrs Hardwick

December 2018

A very conveniently situated property, completely lived up to expectations.. Well furnished and equipped. No problems at all.

Ms Czudej

October 2018

Fantastic house with lots of space for our family with the added bonus of a games room to keep two active boys very happy.. I would certainly recommend a stay at Sunningdale!

Mrs Halford

September 2018

What an absolute "gem" ! A lovely home perfectly positioned to be close enough to everything but far enough to ensure peace & quiet. We went with friends who had never taken this kind of holiday and they are now converts and eagerly planning their next foray. Someone had really thought long & hard about equipping this property from the organised files of information which were fantastic down to the inclusion of sachets of bathfoam and scrunchies !. Anyone would be mad not to consider staying here...

Mrs Cooper

August 2018

The complimentary goodies on arrival was a lovely gesture from the owner.. The house itself was clean and had everything you could possibly need from kitchen contents to games and activities for a rainy day. The sight pictures are true to life and give a real sense of the eclectic nature of the property. We all enjoyed our stay. The location was great from the walk into town and exploring the area.

July 2018

House was extremely well equipped and in a very good location..

Chris M

Ideal venue for exploring Shropshire and surrounding area.. Very comfortable property and the cakes and wine were good too.The walk into Ludlow takes a little more than 10minutes unless you go at speed!

One of the nicest holiday homes we’ve stayed in. If you’re looking for a cosy cottage, this won’t necessarily appeal. It’s quite obviously a 1930s semi which has been modernised and extended over time and whilst I’m no estate agent, I would think it’s pretty much ‘good to go’ on the sales market - the internal finish is that good. Amongst its USPs as a holiday home are the 10 minute walk into Ludlow’s historic centre, large and very well equipped kitchen, TVs in each of the 3 bedrooms (which in total sleep 6), games room with air hockey, pool table, large garden, and a welcome pack comprising 2 bottles of wine, home-made cakes and a bottle of milk, the latter being what most welcome packs consist of! Also the largest selection of local information folders I’ve ever seen. It’s in a quiet residential street with ample off-road parking. Absolutely no complaints!

Mr Hill

Great accommodation and location weather could have been a little kinder..

Mr Wilson

April 2018

We have stayed in many holiday cottages over the years, but none were as comfortable or as well equipped as this one.. Comfort was the overall factor in this house: great reclining furniture in the lounge, comfortable beds, an additional snug with a great sofa and everything you could possibly need in the well-equipped kitchen. The house was lovely and warm and everything was in good working order, including the equipment in the Games Room, which was great fun! We recommend the house,its location was perfect for Ludlow's town centre and the off-road parking was much appreciated. We all slept well (2 couples), as the location was surprisingly quiet considering the proximity to the town centre. The owners were very generous in supplying us with a selection of home-made cakes and wine, very kind. Overall, it made for a great holiday!

Mr Terrill

February 2018

Large family house just a few minutes walk from Ludlow town centre.. Very well equipped, especially the kitchen. Warm and comfortable. The games room was a real bonus and in the warmer weather there is plenty to explore in the large garden.

Mrs Eldred

Ms Williams

November 2017

Fantastic house.. Good location - not too far away from the town centre. Clean and warm and well equipped. Loved the games room. Tried to book it for the Fayre next year but it was already taken :(

Mr Tompkins

June 2017

The location is perfect for a relaxing holiday although there's plenty to do if you so wish.. The property itself was better than we expected (the games room a definite bonus), the best holiday home that we've stayed at so far.

Mr Hack

July 2016

This is a fantastic accommodation. We would love to return!

Mrs Linard

The position was excellent for access to the town. The garden was a beautiful and quiet restful area for relaxing with friends.

Mrs Peacock

June 2016

This is a lovely home from home. The owners were welcoming. It is well situated to walk into the village easily with plenty of parking and good access to main routes around the area. It has a marvellous play room and a good range of games with some lovely children's books.

Mr Cox

May 2016

This is the best place we have ever stayed in, and we have been in a lot. It was very comfortable and spacious and the games room is fab for all ages. It was all you could need and more and the garden is a credit to the owner. We have just got back today and have booked for next year before writing this review to make sure we get in.

Mr Baynham

January 2016

The house was well situated, being only 10 minutes walk from the centre of Ludlow, and was the best equipped house we have ever stayed in. I'd say it was a home from home, if our home was better.

Mrs Ardron

December 2015

We could not have asked for a nicer house to stay in. It was a warm and cosy home from home.

Mr Hodden

October 2015

Mr Fasching

August 2015

it was a wonderful and well equipped cottage in a beautiful town. We felt like we were at home.

Mr Naylor

We have rented houses both abroad and in this country and this has to be the best house for equipment and comfort. The games room was brilliant and the garden beautiful. Would recommend it to all.

Ms Gleeson

July 2015

Ludlow is a beautiful town and the people are very friendly and welcoming. The house was just amazing, the nicest holiday home that we have ever stayed in. It was very clean and very comfortable. The garden was gorgeous. We hope to return someday.

June 2015

An amazing property, had everything that we needed and it was close to town.

Mr Lloyd

April 2015

This house was of an excellent standard throughout; the kitchen had every possible need catered for, the lounge and bedrooms were very comfortable, and the the whole house was spotless. The location is perfect for an easy walk into town, and the added benefit of the parking for two+ cars. There is even a small corner shop for all those essentials within a 5 minute walk. We found the house to be a perfect base for touring the area sightseeing, and a perfect homely feel to relax in at night times. We would love to return!

Mr Mack

March 2015

Had an incredibly comfortable and enjoyable stay, it was just a short walk from the centre of town.

Mr Davey

We thought this was a first class property; very well equipped and in a very good location with excellent parking. The welcome pack was very nice, we hope to return soon.

Mrs Frankland

October 2014

The house was immaculately kept. Lots of extras not expected in a holiday let, i.e. condiments, selection of tea bags, washing up liquid, etc. Lovely owners, who were particularly helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

Mr Sweeney

September 2014

This was by far the best self catering accommodation we have ever stayed in. The quality of the furniture and fittings was excellent and the owners could not have been friendlier.

Mr Lewis

Very comfortable house - ideally situated in the town. Very obliging owners next door. Great weather for 2 weeks did help!

Guest

This was a very well equipped and comfortable house and the owners were very friendly and welcoming. Within walking distance of Ludlow, and it was in a good position to explore South Shropshire. Would definitely recommend.

Mr Lightwing

This property is exceptional. The visitor wants for nothing. The location is within easy walking distance of the town centre, facilities and area tourist attractions. All possible needs were catered for. The garden is an outstanding creation, extremely pleasurable to relax in. This is without doubt the best holiday property I have stayed in over the previous 45 years. The owners made us very welcome and were immediately available had any problems arisen. All in all an excellent relaxing holiday.

Mrs Hill

May 2014

Loved the games room and the house and garden very spacious.

We had an excellent week in this very comfortable home ( home from home in fact ) Location was brilliant - within easy walking distance of Ludlow town centre. The house was very, very well equipped and having the friendly owners next-door a bonus! All in all - could not fault it.

Mr Taylor

March 2014

This was the best holiday home we have stayed in. It was so well equipped everything you need is there and more!

The house was lovely and was very well equipped with everything you needed. The owners had left a lovely lemon drizzle cake and 2 bottles of wine which was very welcoming and he checked in on us to make sure we had everything. There were folders listing everything you needed to know in the area with maps. The beds were comfy and the lounge had reclining seats which were very relaxing. Altogether a very enjoyable break.

August 2013

Really well equipped cottage, particularly appreciated the bonus of the games room for entertaining teenage boys. Great location, quiet road but convenient for reaching a variety of places.

Mr James

July 2013

This was the first time that we have stayed in a cottage and it was a great experience. The accommodation was an overall excellent standard and well equipped. The games room was especially popular with the younger generation, but the extra little touches that the owners provided was what really made the difference.

Peter J

This is our first experience of staying in a rented holiday cottage and if this is what we can expect it is certainly be something that we will repeat. The booking was easy and swift to make and the matter of collecting the property key completely without any hassles. The property is very well located being about a 10 minute walk from the railway station and a few more minutes walk to the town centre itself but on a residential street so little traffic or noise. The accommodation itself was very comfortable with plenty of room for everyone and was also very well equiped both upstairs and down. There was a games room which the younger generation in particular enjoyed but also a summer house should anyone else want to escape for a while. The grounds were also of a very good standard with plenty of off-road parking at the front and mature gardens at the rear providing plenty of shade. On arrival we found that the owners had left us a few welcoming gifts as well as plenty of brochures for the town and its environs, places to visit, eat, local public transport timetables etc. We met the owners shortly after arrival and they were very friendly and helpful, willing to answer any questions as well as make a few suggestions to enhance our stay. We were certainly helped by gloriously sunny weather but overall we all had a very enjoyable stay and I would certainly recommend it to friends.

Mrs Franklin

May 2013

The house had plenty of room for the three of us, was very well equipped, clean, comfortable and we were made welcome by the owner. The property is well-situated for the town and bus routes in a very quiet road. The games room was a great success. We would certainly like to return there.

The Oz5

The property offered a warm and cosy refuge from the near-freezing, snowy conditions outdoors. Family of 5 from australia couldn't take full advantage of the garden because of the weather (though the snowball fights were fun, but appreciated the games room.

Mr McLaughlin

April 2013

A house full of everything we needed for a holiday!

January 2013

Sunningdale was by far the best holiday home we have ever stayed in. The owners were fantastic and it was a home away from home, an extremely well equipped home with extras. The games room was brilliant and although we did not have an opportunity to use the garden in November, it is definitely a place I would love to stay at in the summer to take advantage of. Ludlow and the surrounding areas are beautiful. Stunning scenery and a variety of shops and places to visit. There is an excellent choice of places to eat. We would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a first class holiday and we will definitely return ourselves in the future.

Mr Clark

November 2012

The cottage was clean and spacious and in a great location for days out or just walking into town. Excellent holiday.

Ms Mcknight

October 2012

Every need catered for, very homely and a lovely welcome pack. Home from home.

Extremely well equipped and the games room (especially the pinball machine) was a huge bonus.

Mr Booker

The house is very well equipped, easy access to town, good parking, lots of extras on arrival. Friendly owners. We met our daughter and family there, it is enjoyed by all age groups. The area has lots of places to visit.

Mrs Daly

September 2012

The overall standard of the property was really good. The seating in garden was very good with sunny position nearly all day. Quiet area which we like and Ludlow just a stroll away. Would certainly recommend this property.

Mrs Evans

July 2012

The games room and televisions in the bedrooms helped to keep everyone entertained on rainy days.

The owner is very pleasant and welcoming, we are going back later this year. The grandchildren loved the games room. Everything needed to make it a home from home is there and lots more!
