Location: Halford Near Craven Arms

Craven Arms 1.2 miles; Ludlow 8 miles; Church Stretton 9 miles.

The picturesque village of Halford boasts an ancient church and a variety of attractive barn conversions that stand close to the River Onny, which divides the village from the small market town of Craven Arms, a 12 minute walk away. This is an ideal base, with fine walks from the village to lovely Stokesay Castle, one of England's finest fortified manors, or the very popular Shropshire Hill Discovery Centre, and just a short drive to Wenlock Edge. Church Stretton, known as Little Switzerland, is just a few miles away and nestles between the Long Mynd and Caradoc Hills, renowned for their scenic walks and excellent golf course. Craven Arms has some charming and historic houses, including a round house, thought to be a recognisable rest house for pilgrims travelling between Wigmore and Shrewsbury Abbeys. Also in the town is the fascinating ‘Museum of Lost Content’. For younger visitors, there is a play barn a few miles away near Aston on Clun. The historic towns of Bishops Castle, Ludlow and Shrewsbury are a short drive, and offer magnificent castles, riverside walks, wonderful shops, pubs, restaurants and exciting theatres and a variety of festivals. This is a perfect base for touring all of beautiful Shropshire.
