Can't fault the accommodation (see marks above).. Only small negatives, the accommodation is in a beautiful, isolated rural location, which to us was a bonus. However, it means difficulties with mobile phones and Internet connection. But the owner has overcome this with a purpose built unit that receives wi-if connection very close to the property and works fine. TV reception in the lounge was poor but upstairs was fine. All-in-all an excellent cottage, we have stayed in several and this is up there with the best of them and we would certainly go again. The owners live very close by and are available to give any assistance. Very highly recommended.

Driveway up to the cottage very narrow and hardly any passing places.. We had to reverse down a large section. Rather scary. Owners very friendly and helpful. Need mirror in dressing table recess in second bedroom.

The hosts were outstanding.. We went with our 18 month old daughter and they continually went out of their way to find and put out toys for her to play with. Nothing was too difficult. Incredibly hospitable people with a beautiful cottage.

The Granary has to be far one of the nicest cottages we have stayed at.. We where made very welcome by the owner, the facilities where exceptional. We had our own little private patio and also a further seating area on the decking which was more shaded plus our own little cottage garden. In the grounds of the property is a wildlife pond which was full of newts and we loved to stroll over there in the evening to watch them, very relaxing. Shropshire is a lovely county and a place of outstanding natural beauty. Would highly recommend this property for a relaxing break. The Cunningham’s Cheshire

A lovely, comfortable, cosy place, set in absolutely glorious countryside.. And how nice to be woken by birdsong rather than traffic!
