Escape to the country with family or friends at these two traditional half-timbered homes. Across a main house and a cottage, there's plenty of space for groups to spread out – but we recommend heading straight for the hot tub in the sunken garden. From the alfresco dining table, you can admire quaint country views, and the garden games, including croquet and badminton, are bound to entertain younger guests. The interiors of both homes are in quintessential country style – avid cooks will enjoy using the Aga, and the four-poster bed makes for a memorable sleep. Ideally located near Ludlow and Leominster, there's plenty to see a short drive away – but a local bike ride through the Shropshire hills is equally enjoyable.
