After finding Bicton Lodge on your website everything was as expected.. Wonderful property - very comfortable, clean, like being home from home. The owner Thomasina was very nice and we had a warm welcome. Thomasina has put a lot of effort into the Lodges binder which has all the information needed in regard to the Lodge and pamphlets of the local amenities, places to visit and eat which was very welcome knowing we are new to the area. The surrounding area was as we were expecting - the outlook from the Lodge is picturesque, very quiet and peaceful - was enjoyed by the three of us. The hot tub was wonderful. My niece who is 10 loved it as we all did. We travelled every day and visited Welsh Pool, Church Stretton, Bridgnorth (the Cliff top railway which is worth a visit) and Ludlow. The scenery was spectacular. This is definitely a Lodge we would stay at again. 10 out of 10.

What a lovely 3 night stay we had at Bicton Lodge! We decided to book it very last minute after our wedding as a little family get away and Thomasina was brilliant getting back to us so quickly and having the lodge ready for our arrival! The lodge is perfect for a relaxing getaway away it has all you need and the hot tub and log burner are great. Lovely walks are just on the doorstep and the views from the lodge are lovely. Thank you so much for a brilliant few days as new Mr and Mrs. We will most defiantly be returning :)

Miss Jones

Bicton lodge was everything we hoped for and more.. The lodge was cosy and tastefully decorated. The beds were super comfortable. The lodge was set in an extremely peaceful location and the hot tub made the stay even more perfect!

Mr Bentley

Fantastic property, clean and well equipped and really comfortable beds.. Location was fantastic and the host was really friendly and helpful. Lots of useful information in the property for local orientation and planning days out.

A lovely stay in Bicton Lodge.. The lodge is equipped with everything that you will need for a relaxing break. Beautiful views from the hot tub and garden. Quiet location close to the Shropshire way for walking and within reach of pretty villages for a lazy lunch. Thomasina was delightful, helpful and keeps the lodge maintained to a high standard, thank you.

Me and my girlfriend stoped here for a week to escape the business of our lives.. It was a really nice cottage which we relaxed straight into. the hot tub and the wii made the nights less boring. The Clun village pubs (about a 15 min walk) made for a good trip out one day. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking at escaping from busyness to peace and quiet.

Excellent lodge in beautiful surroundings.. Everything you could wish for. Lovely hot tub overlooking fields. Made to feel very welcome. A very peaceful and relaxing holiday. Will return.

Mrs Linnen

It doesn't get much better than this! ! The cottage was perfect, as were the surroundings. Thomasina was an excellent hostess, she explained everything for us and was available in case we had any problems ( which we didn't!) The whole week was excellent, and the hot tub was an added bonus!

Just got back from an amazing weekend at Bicton Lodge. From the moment we arrived we had a wonderful experience from meeting with Thomasina to enjoying the hot tub. The location is perfect. Views from all windows are picturesque. The Lodge is in a very quiet location just a short drive to the nearest village. Everything has been thought of, it is very much a home from home. We really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub followed by cosying up next to the log burner. We took our 2 year old son. High chair and stair gates were provided. There is also a travel cot you could use. The lodge has been furnished to a high standard and I am sure anyone who stays here will not regret it!

We had an amazing week at Bicton lodge.. We were met by Thomasina who was very friendly and really made us feel at home. A welcome basket was a nice touch with Local Ale, Lemonade, Welsh cakes, Tea and Coffee and even mini chocolate eggs (for Easter) which were a hit with my boys. The lodge is decorated to a high standard and was very clean. The log burner was perfect for cosy nights in and the hot tub was great! The kitchen had everything needed and was a real home from home. The village of Clun was a nice walk via the shropshire way and worth a visit for the tea rooms and food at the local pub. We loved it so much that we have booked to return again next year!

Perfect, cannot fault it.. The lodge itself is beautiful and a good size, the views are spectacular and it's in a very good location. Worth every penny.

Miss Komorowska

Our holiday at this property was just perfect.. Starting with the fantastic service on behalf of Sykes. The owner of the property is very friendly and attentive. Regarding the property it was just ideal for us. Fantastic facilities, very comfy beds and extremely clean. The kitchen is well equipped, the downstairs is great too, wii games kept us entertained in the evening with the fire going and the hot tub was a real treat. the property is so lovely, its very apparent that the owners have put a lot of thought into it and pay attention to detail, you'll find all you need in the property form extra blankets in bedrooms to baking equipment in the kitchen. Fantastic views form the fab top to bottom double doors in the kitchen and the lounge area. It was so relaxing to wake up to the gorgeous views form the bedroom, fantastic rural getaway location. Just a step away form the lovely village of Clun, some great pubs for a drink and food and a fab starting point for a walk. We did a 5 mile walk and it was excellent, breathtaking views! Overall we would definitely recommend this property, for families or as a base for a romantic getaway for couples.

What a wonderful place to spend some time! We have just had the most wonderfully derful weekend break at Bicton Lodge. This is a lovely part of the world: fabulous walking on your doorstep, great pubs (with wonderful pub grub), interesting shops in quaint villages all a short drive away. But you won't be able to tear yourself away! Fresh air, the comfiest of beds, cozy sofas and breath-taking views. We had mixed weather but settled in on a rainy afternoon of relaxation and reading. The log burner in the living area and TV would be perfect to snuggle in front or with a film and a glass of wine. We made the most of the sunshine by sitting in the garden area and getting to know the cows in the next field! We loved the little touches - a welcome basket with local wine, beer and Welsh cakes, crisp cotton sheets and plentiful hot water. And the hot tub is just wonderful to sit outside and soak up the clear air and gorgeous countryside. Treat yourself to a proper break At this Shropshire idyll

Biction Lodge was a fabulous place to stay.. It was in a great location, with superb view ( especially when it snowed) and we were warmly met by the owner who couldn't have done enough to make our stay the best it could be. We had everything we needed including a wide range of utensils and crockery and even decent pans and knives! We receive lots of local goodies on arrival and enjoyed all the attentions to detail that were in the lodge. It was beautifully decorated and the hot tub was a real treat. We would definitely recommend this property. Thank you

Thomasina, gave us the warmest of welcomes! The lodge is beautiful, and was a perfect escape from our busy city lives. Will be booking to return.

Mr Donnison

Bicton lodge is a pretty, tranquil little haven.. Our 18month old son was in heaven. My wife enjoyed her 30th in a place where her 30s couldnt find her. Very impressed.

Bicton Lodge is a blissful location for a relaxing break.. The views of Clun Hill are magnificent and best enjoyed from the hot tub! Thomasina and her boys will do everything they can to meet your needs and I would thoroughly recommend Bicton Lodge to anyone!

We had a fantastic week.. Thomasina couldn't have been a more perfect host, she was there if we needed her but unobtrusive otherwise. The cottage is wonderful! Finished to a very high standard. The views from the lounge are amazing. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Wonderful!
