Just had an excellent week in this cottage , really clean and cosy and hot tub was really nice after walking the hills . Location is stunning and Gilbert was on hand if you needed anything. The cottage is very dog friendly and we had prosecco and chocolates waiting for us on arrival and milk in fridge . Cannot fault this cottage or the owners who really care about you having a good holiday would definitely book again

We visited recently and were really pleased with the accommodation. The log fire was going when we arrived, there was prosecco and chocolates awaiting which was lovely after a drive in the dark and wet. The hot tub was amazing and the property has underfloor heating throughout, which was lovely after a day of walking. The owner was great, as we readily available if any issues. He also offered to help when I got a flat tyre, which was above and beyond. I'd recommend checking out their Facebook page to book direct. I've added the location on Google maps so if you've booked, make sure you check it for the exact location as the satnav doesn't take you to the property if using the postcode. It does take you close, but it's not up Arbour lane as satnav thinks. We're definitely coming back for a return visit and there's much more to explore. Stiperstones is a must and so close (picture attached).

Found this gem of a holiday cottage in the Shropshire Countryside affording fantastic views over a valley. Accommodation was 1st class, clean, warm with everything you could ask for. Gilbert was an excellent host and supplied me with information when required. The hot tub was superb and watching the thousands of stars was mesmerising. I will definitely be returning hopefully within the next year or 2.

Nestling amongst the beautiful Shropshire Hills, Boundary Cottage Annex simply ticks all of the boxes. The high standard of the accommodation is a credit to host Gilbert and his daughter Emma whose warm and friendly greeting was much appreciated after a long drive. The view from the living room is quite stunning and I have no hesitation in recommending the cottage as a quiet and peaceful haven. We will certainly be back!

An absolutely superb cottage.. Gilbert and Emma were outstanding hosts and we couldn’t have asked for better. We stayed with our two children over the Bank Holiday weekend. The property has just been renovated with brand new hot tub, outdoor BBQ and log burner. Beautiful views from the living room (and hot tub!) looking out over the valley, very peaceful and relaxing with a wide range of walks and historic sites to visit nearby. The Shropshire Way, Nipstone Rock and Stokesay Castle were particular highlights. We are already planning a return stay. 10/10.

The people who own this idyllic annex, Gilbert, Liz and their daughter Emma, were so accommodating, friendly and helpful, nothing was to much trouble, they gave us some fresh eggs and milk, tea coffee and sugar, toiletries, bottle of prosecco and chocolates hair dryer foot spa, bath robes, logs for the fire.. They were so kind to us and made mine and my two girls stay a really pleasant and happy break. The annex was perfect condition, hot tub amazing, spotlessly clean. The annex was as described if not more! Lucky to have nice genuine owners, Making are stay so pleasant and memorable, would highly recommend this beautiful shropshire property to anyone it is unique.
