  • "We had a lovely short break in this delightful cottage, sofas so comfy as is the bed."

    Brilliant shower with oodles of hot water. The owners are easily contactable if needed and quick to respond to any issues and done with the utmost good humour. A genuine couple who work hard to make sure everything is as it should be. We enjoyed some lovely local walks and would really recommend Flo Jo for anyone needing peace and quiet. Thank you Lin and Rog.

    Thankyou both.It was great to meet you and so glad your stay was relaxing Property Owner

    We had a wonderful stay Roger and Lin were very helpful and keep a nice area , the only problem we had was that the stairs were wooden steps and our dog had problems getting up and down that would be the only thing to stop us returning for another stay

    Sorry to hear that the stairs didn't go down well with your dog .An unfortunate aspect of wooden stairs which we will take on board ;All feedback is welcome ;even from your dog! Property Owner

About the location

ELLESMERE

Oswestry 8 miles; Shrewsbury 17 miles.

The pretty market town of Ellesmere with its Tudor, Georgian and Victorian buildings quietly nestles between the Shropshire Meres and the well-known Shropshire to Llangollen canal, in an area renowned as Shropshire's Lakeland. Steeped in history and originally fortified as an Anglo-Saxon settlement, this peaceful town boasts a lovely church with a 15th century roof and was home to Thomas Telford during the building of the canal network in the late 18th century. The town also boasts a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as an abundance of entertainment on and around the meres in the surrounding area. Stroll through Cremorne Gardens, go fishing or boating, take some time to explore Colemere Country Park with its wonderful wildlife and scenic walks, or walk along the canal. A lovely location offering something for everyone at any time of year.
