Town: Cleobury Mortimer is a delightful little town at the very heart of the countryside of beautiful South Shropshire. The historic market towns of Bridgnorth and Ludlow with its impressive castle, and Ironbridge Gorge and its 10 museums are within easy driving distance. Cleobury Mortimer itself has an interesting variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, and visitors are always amazed by its famous church, a unique building that has a quirky crooked steeple. The nearby Clee Hills and Wyre Forest offer some superb walking opportunities, and other outdoor pursuits such as fishing, golf and horse riding can all be enjoyed close by.Read more

  Hidden hideaway

  Left on 07/24/2010 for a stay in June 2010
  
  

  The property was hidden away down a slightly scarily narrow road (though it seemed to widen with practice), so very quiet. A small place but characterful, bright and comfortable.

  Pretty village location.

  Left on 12/02/2009 for a stay in April 2008
  
  

  I can't actually remember which month I stayed here.
  I liked the layout very much. It was spacious and interesting. The owner was away however and I returned one afternoon to find the cleaners there. They thought I had left. (the owner did not apologise for this intrusion.)
  The bedroom is below ground level so has a dampish smell, but with heaters and electric blanket I was warm enough.I liked the facilities and furnishings.
  I had difficulty with the door lock, but got it working with WD40.
  I would stay again, but find it too expensive for just the two of us.
