THE WAIN HOUSE, pet friendly, character holiday cottage, with a garden in Whitton Near Ludlow, Ref 1874

Description from the manager

With period features such as exposed beams, oak trusses, wall timbers, and an attractive garden, this home-from-home provides old-world charm and modern practicality in equal measure. As one of four semi-detached properties in this nineteenth century barn conversion, Wain House offers an unusual 'Upside Down' layout, providing the living room with incredible views of the surrounding countryside. Able to sleep a total of six people in one double room, one twin room, and one single room with adult bunks, this wonderful example of a period property provides great accommodation for a group of friends, or a larger family. This is a great base for... anyone who wants to explore all that scenic Shropshire has to offer.

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: The picturesque village of Whitton-Near-Ludlow lies nestled in the heart of the beautiful south Shropshire countryside. In an area renowned for its scenic walking and cycling trails, this lovely little village which is popular amongst hikers, boasts a quaint eleventh century church. The nearby hills of Clee, Caradoc and Long Mynd are always favourites amongst ramblers and in the local town of Ludlow, there are over five hundred listed buildings, as well as tea rooms and restaurants – four of which are Michelin starred – all offering a welcome respite from walking. As well as Ludlow, the village of Church Stretton is also nearby and is known to locals as ‘Little Switzerland’ for its scenic, hilltop views. With so much to see and do in the close vicinity, Whitton-Near-Ludlow, is a great holiday location for anyone looking to explore this beautiful region of Shropshire.Read more
