Both the cottage and amenities were superb. Sara, the host made us feel super welcome and we will definitely be returning.

We stayed for a week during half term and really enjoyed the experience. Overall enough space for 10 people and everything you needed was available onsite to feel like it was your own home. We used the games room, played tennis and feed the animals so had plenty of fun! The gym & pool was first class. With the location of property being so far away from civilisation they are needed in my opinion. If you want to keep active and have alternatives to long walks then this is worth using. The price to use the gym & pool is fair for Adults but in my opinion should be free for children under 12, they can’t use all the amenities available as the adults can so felt this was harsh to change £10 for kids. The owner was hardly noticeable, but available most of the time if you had any questions. Overall if you are looking to switch off in the countryside and get away from the hustle & bustle of normal life then this is an ideal place to stay :)

We visited to celebrate our Dad’s 60th birthday from across the country. The house was lovely and extremely welcoming. It was spotless and very well equipped with all the essentials. Loved the original features and it was just so cosy in the cold winter months. The surrounding farm is idyllic and the farm animals were the highlight of each day for the children (along with the pony grooming). The facilities were excellent and the swimming pool was a firm family favourite. The host went out of her way to make our visit extremely special and we can’t thank you enough. Wonderful place to stay and you won’t be disappointed!!!

This is a wonderful holiday destination. Exceeded expectations. The house is much larger than the photos portray. There is every conceivable convenience and equipment. Every bedroom has an ensuite or own bathroom. Beds very comfy. Lounge area warm, cozy and comfortable. Great location with great views. The spa was the icing on the cake. Such a luxury, beautifully done. Host very helpful and welcoming. We would definitely recommend and hope to be back.

We had a fantastic weekend at The Olde Cow House to celebrate my 40th birthday with family The house was lovely, clean and very comfortable. The location is beautiful and the children enjoyed the animals and walk in the countryside. We had a lovely time in the swimming pool and games room. There was lots to do in the surrounding area. Thanks again!

Sara the owner was extremely helpful and available.. Our first visit to Shropshire was wonderful. The olde cow house was very well equipped, efficient and ideal for a family holiday with two girls under 4years. It was like home from home with all the benefits of living on a farm.
Mr Bode
March 2019
The house was absolutely stunning, really well thought out, lots of toys for the children, spare wellies for those who forgot, well-equipped kitchen which had a jar of home-baked cookies which were delicious.. This is a perfect holiday for families, so much to do just within the compound, there are two games rooms, swimming pool, spa, lots of gocarts that even adults can ride with babies on lap, pigs that can be fed from kitchen scraps and chickens that lay eggs that we collected to make an omelette with and a decent walk around the farm which is ideal to take the dog on. We had a great time staying here and would recommend to anyone and would definitely consider visiting again. Thank you

The cottage was excellent, including the facilities.. Everything we needed was provided and the owner rang me the week before to check we had all the information we needed. Only downside was the price and time restrictions for using the pool area. We knew this on booking but it did feel expensive for such a limited time.

The location is remote and can be difficult to get to if the weather is bad or if you are not a confident driver as it’s aingle track for the last 10-15 minutes.. The arrival is worth the journey. This home is stunning and made the perfect Christmas week.

The Olde Cow House is an excellent cottage - beautiful, spacious conversion, comfortably furnished and very well-equipped.. Highly recommended.

Booked quite last minute after a huge search for a home to suit our tastes and needs for the Christmas week. We wanted something with beams, knocks and crannies, odd sofas and chairs and that country look. This house has it all. The last 10 minutes of the drive the road is single track and the with the rain, meeting a car even with a passing space was scary especially with the weight of Christmas in the car. Got stuck once and lost once! This home is worth the drive. I don’t think the pictures do the place justice for eg we worried if we would all fit around the table for Christmas lunch as it looked small but yes it’s huge with lots of room. All rooms en-suite, with Tv’s. There’s a fire but lots of radiators and it was a mild Xmas this year, but we did turn the heating off and use the fire a few times. The children-3 teenage, one under 10 loved the games room, and go carts in fact so did the adults! So much to do, a swimming pool to hire out for your own private use, pigs to feed, chickens to collect eggs from, tennis court children’s play area, swing ball, pool, fussball, a piano, table tennis, carols round the tree, a lovely local pub which is walkable to and dog friendly. This place is perfect for every trip away. We had an amazing Christmas Thank you to the owners

Stayed here for a week towards the end of february this year. The property itself was amazing, so much character, and really well equipped, it has everything you need for a stay. Swimming pool was really good, and there's plenty of other activities for the kids, such as go-karts, tennis, and exploring the farm. The location is excellent; rural enough to be very peaceful, yet within easy access of Shropshires many attractions, making this property a perfect base to explore the local area.
Andy A
June 2018
Great family facilities on site, kept the kids occupied for hours.. Owners very friendly. Would like to have used the pool but seemed a little expensive, for the price would have thought use would be included even for just one session. Would highly recommend staying here.
Miss Ohanlon
March 2018
Had a lovely stay at The Olde Cow House, the barn conversion was beautiful and rooms very spacious for our family of 13.. They have thought of everything for the guests with including children’s toys, baby walkers, toys, films, board games etc being within the home. We managed to see a couple of the lambs being born which made our holiday alongside with being able to fully get involved with the farm life in collecting our own eggs from the chicken pen in a morning and feeding the pigs daily also. The only downside to this holiday was how costly the swimming pool and gym facilities were. At £10 a head including very young children is very expensive especially when you have such a big family and the slot being only 2 hours at that price. Unfortunately this was the only downside to our stay. Overall we had a lovely week away and would definitely return in the future.

Nothing was too much trouble for Sarah and her family.. they made us feel at home and it was an exceptional time. being my 60th birthday could not have been any better

Fantastic accommodation, really well presented.. The property has been renovated to an extremely high standard and full of character, and is really well equipped; everything you'll need for a self-catering holiday. Location is really quite remote, so ideal if you are after a peaceful holiday. Perfect location for a family holiday!
Mr Carrow
December 2017
The holiday was for my wifes 60th birthday, and the site was perfect for the 9 of us, the grand children, aged 9,7, &5, had a wonderful time on all the equipment and animals at the farm.. The internal lay out of the property was just superb for us, so interesting with all the features kept from its previous existence. So much space for everyone. Heating was great, no issues at all. The whole site was just brilliant. To use the swimming pool was extra, but £10 a head was okay for a one off treat for all the family, and the gym was included in that price. The pool itself is beautiful and we actually took out a weeks membership for us two, to use it twice a day. That was extra, but it really was special. Sarah was on hand if needed and very helpful. It really made the special get together for our close family for the birthday so unforgettable.
Miss Hogan

We stayed here for a long weekend with family members to celebrate our daughter's 30th birthday. The barn is absolutely beautiful and the surrounding countryside is also breathtaking. The owner is nice and very helpful. The swimming pool was fun and also the go-carts. Loved feeding the pigs and ponies. Would return and recommend to others.

A fabulous property.. Superb surroundings and views. Great facilities including bonus tennis courts, pool table, bar football and table tennis games room. Very comfortable and facilities were of a high standard. A house with lovely features.

It was a lovely retreat for a couple of days (for my 50th). Lots of space, lots to do, wonderful countryside. Swimming pool was niche... and nice... (costs extra, but understandable and justified). Owners were very accommodating and helpful. Highly recommended.

A great location in the Shrophsire countryside. Great for families. There were go karts, lots of outdoor areas to play on site and The Olde Cow House was a lovely house. The kitchen was very well equipped, there were childrens toys and books etc. Very homely. A great house. There was a swimming pool which you paid for separately on site. It's a little expensive for what it is and you are only allowed 2 hours in the pool - this is a strict 2 hours so be sure not to overstay. This was my only complaint actually as we were ushered out in a very unrelaxed way to allow members in. We had to be out by 5pm and members are allowed in from 5pm. It would be way better to have a 15 minute pause inbetween as a changeover time as it did taint our visit to the pool a little. Aside from that it was a very enjoyable stay and i would highly recommend it.

Great weekend in a fantastic setting. The Olde Cow House was lovely and warm on arrival, with plenty of character and all the basics that you'd need. Outside was brilliant for children and adults. We were lucky enough to see new born lambs, feed the pigs. Owner was very friendly without being obtrusive.
Mrs Paxman
November 2015
This was one of the best Sykes cottages we have stayed in. The accommodation was spacious and very well equipped, with loads of thoughtful additions for parents like highchair, plates and cutlery, cups, toys and even a pushchair! Outside, we didn't even notice the poor weather - everyone was entertained by the animals, the play area and the tennis court. My son loved collecting eggs from the hens and seeing the pigs. Nearby there is a lovely and very reasonable pub in Cardington and we found plenty to do in the surrounding area. We'd like to go again when the weather is better so we can make more of the countryside walks.
Mrs Whittingham

The House was amazing and very spacious. You need take nothing but food and drink as the house is so well equipped.

Mr Marlow
February 2015
What a fantastic find - the adults and kids loved it. It was great to be able to let the kids go out and play (pedal go-karts were a big hit), and for them to see all the chickens/pigs/sheep/ lambs/dogs/pony. The games room was a nice addition allowing us to play pool, table tennis and table football. A shame we only came for the long weekend - we are planning to return, for a whole week next time.
Miss Bispham
February 2015
Absolutely fantastic holiday. The cottage was lovely and homely and the attention to detail was fabulous, the owners had thought of everything. There was lots to do around the farm, the kids especially enjoyed the pony rides, feeding the pigs, collecting the eggs and seeing the lambs being born. Along with this the go karts, tennis courts, football nets and games rooms were thoroughly enjoyed by both adults and kids. Plus fabulous surroundings for beautiful family walks and spotting an array of wildlife. We will definitely return again and recommend to family and friends too.

We enjoyed all the facilities and equipment. There was plenty of room to sit comfortably in a peaceful environment with a delightful view whatever the weather. Plenty for the children to do in a safe environment. A very friendly host family who made us feel relaxed from the moment we arrived, and provided all that we needed. The children enjoyed feeding the animals and riding the ponies, as well as playing table tennis with the adults and using the outdoor equipment. A perfect place for a family holiday.

The Olde Cow House was the idyllic holiday setting for our family. We had a lovely relaxing week and wished we could have stayed longer. The dogs enjoyed the woodland walks and swimming in the lakes and we all appreciated the beautiful surroundings. The Owners have gone to a lot of trouble to ensure visitors have a very enjoyable stay. We will certainly recommend the holiday to family and friends and will no doubt return in the future.

We have stayed here two years in a row, and plan to stay again. The buildings are just gorgeous. Sarah and her family are wonderful, they can't do enough for you. The cottages are all very beautiful, and it is difficult to choose between them. It's very much a family place and caters for grand children and grand parents alike. You can take toddlers for short walks to see horses, chickens, and pigs. Older children have the games area which is suitable for every age,(including adults). Nature lovers can go for long walks in the surrounding countryside, and grandparents can sit on the patio drinking tea and watching all the activities. We have only stayed during the winter; it must be a wonderful place in the summer when you can take picnics and sit by the lake or play a game of rounders in the fields.
Mrs Tutt

This is our second visit, and I can't wait to go again. The owner is wonderful, in fact the whole family can't do enough for you. They do everything to make your stay fantastic. What a great place!

I booked the cottage for my husbands 40th surprise. We had 8 friends with us and had the best weekend ever. The cottage was better than I had imagined and all of the extras in it were perfect. Will certainly book it again with my children as I think the facilities on the farm would be perfect!

Mrs Aris

The owners were very welcoming and friendly - couldn't be more helpful. The property was very comfortable with plenty of comfortable chairs for everybody. There was plenty to do at the Farm, in fact we had trouble persuading the children to 'go out' as they were more than happy playing around the property.
Mrs Manley
April 2011
An outstanding cottage - the owners were very welcoming and allowed the children free reign of the farm, including letting us help ourselves to newly laid eggs! Excellent facilities inside and out, especially for children of all ages! We can't wait to go back and are recommending it to our friends.
Mrs Reed
March 2011
The Olde Cow House sits within a working farm with sheep, pigs, horses and chickens which added to the fantastic experience. We stayed during the lambing season and enjoyed an abundance of fresh eggs! The property is particularly well suited to large groups with modern kitchen equipment and ample crockery to make your stay comfortable. There are mountain bikes to use; fantastic walks and nearby pubs. Well worth a visit - happy to recommend this great property!
