Property Description

Holiday home
The Byre has been tastefully converted to offer accommodation for 2 people; a classic, romantic retreat. Exposed beams and a four-poster bed help it retain much of its original charm and there is also a small garden from which you can enjoy the stunning scenery or indulge in a spot of al fresco dining. There is parking for up to 2 cars, although the best way to get the most from this area is on foot.

Accomodation Details
All ground floor. 1 double bedroom with four poster. Bathroom with bath, separate shower cubicle, basin and WC. Modern fitted kitchen with dining area and French windows to garden. Cosy sitting room.

Area
The village of Wentnor lies on a ridge to the west of the Long Mynd, with good views in all directions. It is an attractive village, situated on a location that can be traced back to Saxon times. The church of St. Michael and All Angels is at one end of theridge, and there are spectacular views to be had from there, looking towards the west from the churchyard. Carved into an outside wall of the church is an inverted 'face'. Inside is a tombstone known as the ‘Hurricane Tombstone'; this is in memory of a family who lost their lives in the nearby hamlet of Asterton during a hurricane in 1772. Wetnor is also situated close to many other historic Shropshire attractions. The Shropshire Hills are littered with Roman and Iron Age settlements, perfect destinations for those who want to mix a bit of history with a scenic walk. Church Stretton is only a few miles away and offers a beautiful example of a modern medieval village. With outdoor pursuits, such as fishing and mountain-biking, in abundance, Wentnor is a haven for those looking to get away from it all.

Region
A E Houseman once wrote that Shropshire was "the quietest place under the sun" and today the county remains something of a rural idyll, recognised as one of the least crowded and most peaceful regions in England.

Ms Morgan, August 2020
August 2020
Views. Views.. Views. The setting of The Byre is stunning with gorgeous views from front and back doors. As others have said the photos are out of date and the cottage is much nicer than the photos show. Spacious, comfortable, well equipped and clean. We enjoyed every second in the cottage. The walks from the doorstep are fabulous, with other great walks a short away. Perfect for walkers who like being a little remote. So quiet and peaceful and a clear night gives beautiful stars too. All in all - superb.

If you like peace, tranquility, beautiful surroundings and comfort, then The Byre is the perfect holiday accommodation for you.. The accommodation is bigger than what it appears on the pictures.
Newman, August 2020

Lovely quiet location for walking and exploring
Ms Smith, August 2020
July 2020
This cottage is ideally situated for those seeking peace and quiet, escape from the hubbub and who enjoy walking and exploring quiet paths and lanes.. It is off the beaten track, yet close to small market towns such as Bishops Castle. The cottage is simply furnished and spacious for two.
Ms Hoyle, July 2020

Mrs Warder
September 2018
We booked this cotttage as a last minute decision and therefore did not have great expectations, but WOW what a find.. The place is in an area of outstanding natural beauty with excellent views over the Long Mynd, and totally peaceful and quiet. There is NO light pollution at night, no traffic and even no rural noise and we had the BEST sleep you coulld wish for in a very comfortable bed. The cottage is well equipped, very clean and comfotable and the owner friendly and helpful. We had a lovely, unexpected welcome package of milk, tea and coffee, flowers and even a bottle of wine and chocolates. Although quite remote, the cottage is within easy reach of Craven Arms, Church Stretton and Bishop's Castle. Even Shrewsbury is only half an hour's journey by car. For walkers the place is heaven. I would highly recomment this lovely place.
Mr Skilton

Lovely cottage , very relaxing .. Great little touches , could not have been better.
Mr Phoenix
September 2018
Beautiful cottage set in lovely remote countryside.. Very well equipped with some lovely welcoming extras like wine chocolates and milk on arrival. Would recommend the Byrd to anyone visiting the Shropshire Hills and we would definitely consider returning here at some point in the future.
Mrs Hayward
August 2018
The owner was really friendly and as soon as we opened the cottage door we felt at home.. The Barn was delightful and absolutely spotless. The views and grounds were lovely too.
Mr Lambert
June 2018
Having already stayed at the Byre [ 2 years ago ] ensured that a return visit was essential before too long [ We are both mid-octogenarians ! ! ]. The location is splendid, the property the best we have ever used and the tranquility was a necessary ingredient. We admired the cheerfulness of the walkers passing by [ we used to walk a lot when we were alive !! ]. Bob continues to be most friendly and helpful. The surrounding area is outstanding and in our opinion a "forgotten" or " overlooked" part of the country. Sadly the distance from home is what it is - lengthy. Never-the-less hopefully we may return. - that in itself says it all . Weather-wise and ALL things considered - Perfect.
Mrs Davidson
May 2018
Beautiful location, cottage all as described.. Perfect for quiet break for couple. Left most relaxed and definitely a place we’d return to.
Mrs Moreland

Andy D
December 2016
Wow!! What a fantastic place, currently sitting in the lounge of this property writing the review, couldn't wait to get home to do it!! Don't want to go home!! This place is great. Very high standard of decor with every attention to detail being made. As others have stated the pictures quite simply don't do it justice. We found the bed very comfy, neither too hard or soft. Location is so pretty and quiet. We have had the most relaxing weekend before the usual annual onslaught of Christmas!! VERY HIGHLY recommend this place to EVERYONE. Will be returning for a full week next summer. LOVED IT. Thank you.
Mrs Miller

A peaceful and quiet location and beautiful views from the cottage.
Mr Ball

The Byre is a very quiet and peaceful out of the way cottage. We received a lovely, warm welcome from the owner.
Mr Lambert
May 2016
The Byre is in the most peaceful, remote and tranquil setting. The location for us was simply all that we needed with remarkable views. The Byre, in our estimation, exceeded all our expectations in all respects.
Mr Miller

Great walking straight from the door. Friendly and knowledgeable owner. Great weather too. Lots of varied bird life including many Red Kites.
Mrs Stoney

Mr Cuskeran
July 2015
The Cottage was set in a beautiful, tranquil location with excellent views across the countryside and surrounding hills.
Ms Ingram
June 2015
The holiday cottage was lovely and had everything we needed to be able to enjoy our holiday. The pictures didn't do it justice; The Byre is located in the most amazing setting and we loved the experience of waking up and hearing nothing but the sheep and the birds. I would recommend this cottage to anyone but particularly to those who enjoy peace and quiet and hiking which was from the doorstep. We could happily have stayed a second week and there would still have been plenty to do. The owner goes the extra mile and the property was spotless. We appreciated the books, tv, radio and board games being provided. We would certainly stay there again.
Mr Barker
June 2015
As with our first visit, the property was perfect in every way. Set in wonderful scenery this cottage is a perfect place to relax and enjoy.
sailinn
June 2015
We really enjoyed our one week stay at the Byre. It is ideal for those who love peace and quiet and enjoy hiking. The cottage is so well equipped with everything you could possibly need and spotlessly clean. We really appreciated the fresh flowers, chocolate, wine, milk, tea and coffee that were there when we arrived. I don't believe the pictures on the website do this cottage justice. The setting and the views are just stunning. We loved waking up and hearing nothing but the birds and the sheep. We love our hiking and found plenty of walks to keep us busy for a week. We could happily have stayed for a second week and would not hesitate in recommending this cottage to anyone. If there is just one slight criticism is that we found the bed too small and the mattress too hard.
Mr Darlington
May 2015
The Cottage was superb in every aspect with absolutely gorgeous views. The accommodation was very spacious and clean and warm. The owner was a friendly and genial host and nothing too much trouble if you needed anything. We had a wonderful relaxing holiday. I would really recommend this property.
Mr Broughton
March 2015
The cottage was in the perfect position for a walking holiday. Everything one could need was provided, in fact the welcome was the best we've experienced. It was close to National Trust properties for rainy days and there was a pub serving good food within reasonable walking distance.
Mrs Naven
February 2015
The cottage was fabulous with every possible accessory that we required. The owner was very nice and the little touches were great. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely like to return.
Mr Broadhurst
January 2015
The cottage was ideal, well kept and well appointed. In an absolutely delightful setting in the Shropshire Hills. The owner was a lovely man and so helpful. The walks from the cottage offer endless possibilities with the Shropshire Way and the Jack Mytton Way on your doorstep.
Mr Adamson
December 2014
This cottage and it's location could not have been better. The cottage was absolutely delightful in every way and so homely. It was especially nice to arrive in a warm cottage. I'm sure we will return.
Mr Mulford
November 2014
The property is remote, so it is quiet and there is plenty of room. It is comfortable and well equipped. Surrounding countryside is beautiful, and full of interesting wildlife.
Mrs Johnson
October 2014
We loved everything about this cottage the owner had gone to great lengths to make our stay memorable and it certainly was. This is the best cottage we have stayed in.
Mr Newman
October 2014
We have stayed in many holiday cottages and this is up with the best. From our friendly greeting from the owner, to the perfect location and the beautiful cottage itself. We could not fault this holiday at all.
Mrs Bohren
August 2014
We just loved The Byre. We loved the fact that the owner had put so much thought into providing us with such a wonderful stay. The Byre is very large for 2 people and very comfortable.
Mr Barker
August 2014
A very well appointed and beautiful cottage in the middle of glorious scenery.
Mr Hampton
July 2014
The property was very well appointed with everything we could have wanted. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the country walks on the doorstep. The owner had done everything possible to make it a perfect holiday.
Helen B
July 2014
This cottage is provided with everything you could possibly want, and then some. We were greeted with fresh flowers, chocolates, wine, tea, sugar, milk, coffee and many other essentials to get us started. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable and spacious. Set in a lovely garden on a farm, it was very peaceful. If it is the city life you are after this may not be the place for you but we couldn't fault it.
Mr Goodacre
June 2014
This cottage was the best we have stayed in. It was quiet and out in the sticks. The owner was a superb host and everything was catered for even the special additions. It's great for walk, or rides and there is plenty to see and do. There's a good pub in the village which serves excellent food and very friendly. The comments book says it all. We will be going back.
sandie b
May 2014
This beautiful cottage was just the tonic we needed. Everything you could need is there and more as you arrive to a bottle of wine, flowers, chocolates and bottled water. The water is from a bore hole but we had no problems at all with this. It is much larger than it looks on the web site and of a very high standard. The views are wonderful. Only very small thing, and this is just a personal comment, the mattress is far to soft. The Crown pub in Wentnor is excellent. Food is lovely and all the staff and locals made us feel very welcome.
Dawn R
April 2014
We stayed for a week in this lovely holiday home which was very well equipped with everything you might need. It was quite spacious for a one bedroom property and the photos do not do it justice. As I was recovering from a recent illness it was the perfect place to relax. The views were fantastic from every window. The owner was particularly friendly and left some very welcome goodies to start the week.
Mr Farmer
October 2013
We have visited The Byre 3 times, and plan to do so again, I think that says it all really. It's location is especially great, and the friendliness of the owner makes this place special, it certainly ticks all the boxes for us.
Mr Bowman
September 2013
The views from all aspects were brilliant. The owner was helpful and from our view excellent.
Mrs Chase
September 2013
The parking was excellent and the patio was nice and private. Every window had a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside. We look forward to visiting The Byre again, hopefully next year.
Mr Watts

We loved our stay at The Byre.
FrankieMarker
August 2013
Last week we had the pleasure of staying at the Byre in Adstone, near Wentnor. When we arrived, there was a warm welcome for us including complimentary chocolates, a bottle of wine, tea, coffee, milk and a bowl of grapes. Having looked around the cottage we could see we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The front porch afforded a stunning view of the Long Mynd with gliders and hang gliders soaring above the valley and to the rear of the cottage there is a patio area for eating outside or having a BBQ. The cottage has its own water supply from a bore hole - it tasted fine! The local pub serves very good food and beer but we found it preferable to drive there, it taking about 20 minutes to walk along the narrow lane. But this was also the beauty of the place, its remoteness and rural setting. We found it an ideal base for walking in the Shropshire hills. We would not hesitate to return if holidaying in Shropshire again.
Mr Bowman
July 2013
The views from all aspects were brilliant. the owner was helpful and from our view excellent
Mr Besbrode

Mrs Brown
July 2012
It was a pleasure to meet and chat with the owner. He could not have been more helpful or friendly. The Byre was so comfortable we didn't want to leave, in fact we would buy it if we could. The location is perfect for walking, either on the Shropshire Way, up the Long Mynd, or simply down to the excellent village pub.
Mr Osborne
July 2012
An absolutely wonderful property set in glorious surroundings with 'jaw dropping' views everywhere. A truly wonderful experience, probably our best to date.
Miss Morris
November 2011
The remoteness of the property meant there was lots of peace and quiet.
Mr Simmons
October 2011
Spacious, quiet property, ideal for a couple. Impressed that there was both a bath and shower. Usually the smaller properties do not have a bath, which is a great shame after a long day out on the hills! Location was fantastic if you like walking. Straight out onto the Shopshire way and half an hour to the top of the Long Mynd.
Mr Hale
October 2011
Great hill scenery and excellent walking from this really high quality cottage. Virtually everything one might need was provided and quite a few extras. The host does a superb job with this cottage. We will return!

This property rates as the best we have enjoyed in over 40 years of regular cottage holidays. The owner should be highly commended for his excellent service to his clients.
Mr Parkin

A great place to unwind 'far from the madding crowds'! Plenty of Buzzards to be seen - soaring high. The Crown serves delicious home cooked pies and real ales!

We loved the wonderful location, the attention to detail in the contents of the cottage, the extras like flowers, wine, chocolates and bottled water in the fridge.
Mr Ruddock

Mrs Holding
July 2010
As new visitors to Shropshire we were delighted with the location of the cottage and the excellent walking either directly from the property or within a very short drive. The Long Mynd is accessed by footpaths directly from the cottage. We shall definitely visit the area again and if possible, book The Byre, it is a perfect place!
Mr Mc Dougall
June 2010
The cottage is excellent and very spacious for 2 people. The location is perfect. This area is essentially walking country; not many tourist attractions. Local pub in Wintnor is good for food, ale and service.
Mr Mrs Ward
May 2010
The cottage was in a beautiful setting with panoramic views and plenty of walks literally directly from the front door. The cottage was extremely well equipped, even down to a foot spa for those weary feet! In addition, the owner, had provided jigsaws, board games and books for those rainy moments. There were plenty of local maps and brochures of places of interest too. The owner was very friendly and extremely helpful and had even thought to provide a welcome pack for our arrival.
Mr Mrs Howard-Smith

Perfect place for a chill out holiday. On the edge of the Shropshire Way, close to the pub and shop, friendly locals. What more can you want?

Mr Jenson
May 2007
The Byre was ideal for us...we could not have chosen better if we had had several months to research either the property or the area! It was blissfully peaceful, with wonderful walking from the door. We had a lot of rain but it failed to dampen our spirits! We had a lovely week. The owner, gave us a warm welcome (including a bottle of wine) and was very helpful. Excellent! We will use Sykes Cottages again!

Best holiday ever. Views from near the cottage are wonderful.
Mr Hughes

The cottage is excellent in presentation, clearly a lot of thought went into the decor/furnishings, and the location was perfect for us, we did lovely walks almost every day, without having to drive far. We could sit outside for lunch with the view at the back towards the Long Mynd - idyllic!
Mrs Sydenham

Views, location, comfortable cottage, facilities, weather!
Mr Sreeves
January 2007
We loved the isolated location which was ideal for our Golden Wedding anniversary. Within reach of the beautiful walking area of the Long Mynd and the towns of Ludlow and Welshpool and several pretty little villages. We were touched by the thoughtful, welcoming gifts and the seasonal decorations of a lit Christmas tree, candle table-arragements and Christmas stockings.
