Friary Cottage
Friary Cottage is on Lower Broad Street in Ludlow. It's a proper old town house, detached, and it's Grade II listed. You can walk into the town centre in five minutes. The train station is even closer, about three minutes.
It sleeps six, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It's got a 4 Star rating. The place has been renovated, but it's still an old cottage. There are some low beams and the stairs are fairly steep in parts. There's antique furniture, which suits the place, and a wood burner in the living room.
There's an Aga in the kitchen. It's gas-fired, so it's on all the time for heat and hot water. You can cook on it too, if you know how. I leave instructions.
Out the back there's an enclosed garden. There's also a small, walled courtyard at the side, which gets the sun. From the sun room you can access a new garden room.
You're right on the edge of the town centre. There's a supermarket about fifty yards away. A pub and a restaurant are about a hundred yards.
Ludlow itself is a medieval market town with a castle. It's known for good food and has a racecourse. There are food festivals through the year, so it can get busy then.
For days out, you've got the Shropshire Hills around Church Stretton, about a twenty minute drive. Ironbridge is about half an hour. In Hereford, about forty minutes, there's the cathedral and the Mappa Mundi. Several historic houses are within easy reach, like Berrington Hall and Croft Castle.
The house has the things you'd expect: WiFi, TV, a washing machine, dishwasher. Bedding and towels are included. I can provide a cot, highchair, and stairgate if you need them. It's fine for dogs, up to two.
