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: Church Stretton is a pretty market town in the heart of rural south Shropshire. Described as "Little Switzerland", the town is surrounded by stunning scenery and is the major part of Shropshire's hill country. The town offers a good selection of pubs, tearooms, and specialist shops, as well as other attractions including fantastic walking opportunities on the Long Mynd; the fascinating Acton Scott Working Farm, and the ancient Stokesay Castle. Shrewsbury, Ironbridge, Ludlow, Much Wenlock and Bishops Castle are all historic local towns with much to offer to visitors, and they are all an easy drive away from Church Stretton, as are the beautiful Welsh Borders.

Response from the manager Thank you for sharing this thoroughly lovely review with us, we are absolutely over the moon that you all had a great stay at The Old Chapel, especially the birthday girl and of course George the dog! It sounds so convenient to have a great shop and of course a holiday "local" so close by, and having the hot tub to unwind in sounds pretty perfect to us! We hope your next holiday at The Old Chapel is just as fabulous as this one!
