  • "Felt at home as soon as we arrived."

  • "The Bungalow was perfect for what we needed."

    The owner was very facilitating with our animals and all people on the site of the Mounts were friendly and welcoming. The property was very comfortable and decor upgraded nicely since we visited 5 years previous. Walks from the property for miles and outstanding views. Visiting Bridgenorth and Ludlow were easy drives. Would love to experience this in a better season as everywhere was wet and muddy (expected as due to the recent and continuous storms) but we had no worries as the facilities and location made it easy for us. Recommended for animal lovers and those loving the great outdoors. Thank you.

    The bungalow in a beautiful setting has everything you could possibly need, is clean and so comfortable and the welcome goodies (fresh eggs, bread, butter, wine and fruit) from the lovely hosts much appreciated. Loved waking up to the sound of the Cockerell and chickens outside the bedroom window and the horses coming to say hello over the fence of the patio. Our dogs also enjoyed the many lovely walks right on the doorstep. just cant fault it

  • "My dogs and I had a very comfortable, quiet & relaxing week here."

    The directions to "the Bungalow" are spot on made easier by the fact that the garage at Doddington is on the curve of the A4117 where the required turn off is situated. "The Bungalow" is situated at the far north-eastern corner of the smallholding, past Margaret's and Brian's house, however whilst they were always there, they were never intrusive. The welcome package of wine, fruit, milk, eggs and bread was greatly appreciated as were the little items that can be so easily forgotten like tea, tomato sauce mustard etc. "The Bungalow" is very spacious and well equipped with the extended garden being greatly appreciated by my dogs. The free-range hens in the next field kept the dogs amused as they are used to seeing horses similar to the ones two fields down. The Bungalow itself is spacious, tastefully decorated and well-lit with natural daylight. Next to the smallholding is Catherton Common which has a well laid out path network with some fantastic views. "The Bungalow" is well situated for exploring not only the many attractions of South Shropshire but also those in Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Mid Wales.

  • "We really enjoyed our holiday at The Bungalow."

    It was comfortable, clean and very well equipped. A large welcome pack was provided which was unexpected. The area was peaceful and had some amazing views and there was a calming aura and slower pace of life which was relaxing. We enjoyed watching the birds (including a woodpecker), rabbits, squirrels and making the acquaintance of Della the horse and the cat. Margaret and Brian (owners) were friendly and helpful which we appreciated. This was our first time staying here but we would like to return soon and totally unwind.

  • "Generally loved this cottage - very quiet and peaceful."

    I am always a bit wary of renting a cottage with owners close by but Margaret and Brian were perfect hosts - helpful but left us on our own. The sitting area is by necessity quite small which with 4 dogs was occasionally a little difficult - they learnt to back out of corners very successfully! The horse over the fence did on occasions shatter the peace with dogs barking! The utility area is a godsend with muddy dogs who loved the walk from the door onto the common! ( beware of sheep hiding behind gorse bushes!) A slightly larger area of enclosed garden would have made a good garden perfect! Overall a really good cottage to stay in especially with large numbers of dogs!

  • "Lovely location for a peaceful week."

    Cottage is well equipped and clean and the owners had thoughtfully left some welcome items. Rear garden is secure and as a result is great for the dogs. In a perfect world, the far side of the cottage (bedroom side) would also be fenced as part of the garden and the cottage would have a wood burner or open fire for cosiness. We would happily stay here again. Local top tip is the Bennett's End pub for Sunday lunch: friendly locals, good food, and dogs welcome in the bar.

  • "Lovely holiday bungalow in a lovely quiet location."

    Comfortable beds and comfy sofas to relax on. Lovely outlook and apart from the occasional neigh from one of the horses it was so quiet and relaxing. Our daughters dog, Jazz thoroughly enjoyed herself ,although she didn't know what to make of the strange animals just over the fence, that would be the Llamas. She is so brave she just stood and watched them until the day before we went home when she summoned up the courage to run up to the fence and bark at them, but they just stood and looked at her. Family had a few trips into Ludlow, mainly so that the dog could go stand in the river that runs through there, being a dog friendly town the were plenty of other dogs to talk to. Grandaughter had a day out at the West Midland Safari park and the amusement park attached to it, had a super day there. I think the only down side was that some of the kitchen equipment could do with upgrading. Mainly the frying pans. Other than that we would be more than happy to stay at The Bungalow again. we would be more than happy to stay there agin.

    The owners were very friendly and the welcome pack of food and wine was a treat. The whole accommodation was set up with a dog-loving family in mind and the curious alpacas added interest. Although set in a beautiful rural location, Ludlow was not far for supermarket shops and the scenery in the general locale was breathtaking. I would recommend The Bungalow to anyone wanting peace, quiet and a lovely area to walk their dogs.
