The tiny hamlet of Welsh Frankton stands between the famous village of Whittington, the birthplace of the first Lord Mayor of London, and the delightful town of Ellesmere, which is a pretty market town with Tudor, Georgian and Victorian buildings, found nestling between the beautiful mere (lake) and the Shropshire/Llangollen Canal, in an area known as Shropshire's Lakeland. Originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon settlement, Ellesmere is steeped in history. The town is home to the lovely Church of Saint Mary, with its 15th Century roof and Thomas Telford was based in the town while building the canal. There are a variety of shops, good pubs and restaurants and an abundance of entertainment on and around the nine lakes, which surround the town. Stroll through Cremorne Gardens, enjoy fishing and sailing or explore Colemere Country Park with its wonderful wildlife and scenic walks. As the townspeople say, there really is ‘a mere for all’!

Previous visitors' comments about Cedar Log Cabin, Brynallt Country Park:
The accommodation was excellent and set in approximately five acres, it was the perfect getaway! The welcome we received from our hosts was exemplary, with first rate recommendations on places to visit and the best local eateries to use. Ours was only a short visit (this time) and we have already passed the details to family and friends and wholeheartedly recommend the Cedar Log Cabin for a fabulous break.
Mr Wright, Aylesbury, January 2012
Great lodge and land, dogs loved it.
Miss Corr, Didcot, December 2011
Unique, comfortable accommodation in a stunning, peaceful area with easy access to the canal by foot.
Mrs Davies, Hereford, November 2011
The very high standard of the property, the attention to detail was second to none. The peaceful location, but within easy reach of nearby town. The 5 acres of land in which the log cabin was set, this was particularly good for our 2 dogs.
