The Cottage

The Cottage is in Richards Castle, which is a quiet village near the Shropshire border. It's a detached place, so no neighbours on the other side of a wall. It's thatched, which you don't see every day.

It sleeps four in two bedrooms, with one bathroom. It's got a 4 Star rating. It's been modernised but it's still a very old cottage, so bear that in mind. The stairs are the main thing. They're narrow and steep. You'll need to watch your head. It's fine if you take your time.

The garden is a good size, fully enclosed. There's a lawn, a patio, and a summerhouse. You get a lot of birds. There's an open fire, and heating and electricity are included in the price. It has WiFi, a TV, a washing machine, and a dishwasher. All bedding and towels are provided. No pets, sorry.

For shops or a meal, you're looking at a drive. The nearest pub and restaurant are about two and a half miles away. A decent shop is about two miles.

Ludlow is the main town nearby, about a ten minute drive. It's got a good market, shops, and plenty of places to eat. The castle is worth a look. Walking the Mortimer Trail from there is popular.

If you want to go further, you can walk up Clee Hill for the views. Herefordshire and the Welsh border are close. For organised days out, the National Trust has a few properties in the area, and the Shropshire Hills website is good for walking routes.
