THE WAIN HOUSE, pet friendly, character holiday cottage, with a garden in Westhope, Ref 1863

Description from the manager

Able to sleep up to six people across two double rooms– one of which is en suite – and one twin, this great property is close to the amenities of Westhorpe and Church Stretton. Situated in a lovely courtyard setting on the owner’s 250-acre farm, this property is one of four quality, brick-built barn conversions. Formerly part of a 19th Century stable block, this lovely little cottage has been sympathetically renovated and furnished to a high standard. Boasting exposed beams and trusses throughout, the property successfully blends period features with modern convenience. This cottage also comes with use of a lovely patio gar...den with country views, ideal for al fresco dining.

Amenities: Oil central heating. Double electric oven, electric hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, TV with basic Satellite, video, DVD. All fuel and power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Cot available. Off road parking for 3 cars. Enclosed, gravelled patio garden with garden furniture and BBQ. Two well-behaved pets welcome. Sorry, no smoking. Shop 6 miles, pub 3 miles. Note: There is restricted head height in part of this property due to a low beam crossing one side of the first floor landing.

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.

Town: Standing amidst rolling farmland in the scenic Hope Valley, the scattered village of Westhope is situated at the southern foot of the famous Wenlock Edge. The area is packed with lovely walks, rambling routes and cycle trails down local paths and bridleways. Many of Shropshire's main attractions are within easy driving distance such as Church Stretton - known as ‘Little Switzerland’ to the locals – which offers a selection of antique shops and tea rooms and is surrounded by the beautiful Long Mynd Hills. The Acton Scott Historic Working Farm and the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre are also worth visiting, as is the Ironbridge World Heritage Site and the medieval towns of Shrewsbury and Ludlow – the latter of which boasts four Michelin starred restaurants. With so much to do in the local area, everyone is sure to find something they enjoy.Read more
