Location: Picklescott

Church Stretton 6 miles; Shrewsbury 8.5 miles.

The pretty, rural village of Picklescott nestles in the Shropshire Hills adjacent to the Long Mynd, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Picklescott is at the halfway point of a lovely walk along country lanes while the surrounding area abounds in miles of beautiful bridlepaths offering excellent walking and cycling opportunities. The village is home to the award-winning The Bottle and Glass, a pub serving up real ale and home-cooked food. Enjoy the stunning views from the Devil's Chair at nearby Stiperstones Nature Reserve, or visit the picturesque market town of Church Stretton with its half-timbered buildings, just a 6 mile drive away across the stunning Long Mynd hills. The medieval towns of Shrewsbury and Ludlow, with their ancient castles, excellent shops, restaurants and scenic, riverside walks are well worth a visit, as are the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge with its fascinating museums, the amazing Roman ruins at Wroxeter and Stokesay Castle. This superb holiday location has plenty to offer at any time of year.

An exceptional spot to spend a few days whatever the weather. It was worth every penny!!
Mr Musker, Loughton, April 2013

The cottage was lovely, in a good rural location. It was well appointed and just right for 2 people. The wood burner was excellent and once we got the hang of the electric heating, the cottage was warm and cosy. The area is great, very attractive with plenty to do. A good set of walking information was provided at the cottage.
Mr Anstey, Milnthorpe, January 2013

The cottage was excellently specified and in a very peaceful location. We had a very good break.
Mr Dumbreck, Guildford, September 2012

The cottage was probably the best we have ever had, we had a lovely week.
