Ludlow Cottages
Betjeman's favourite town, Ludlow nestles above the River
Teme in rural South Shropshire. Oozing charm and character,
it's ideal for lovers of history, walking and food - a unique
combination and reason alone to book a Ludlow cottage.
Food glorious food in a Ludlow cottage!
Whether your idea of foodie heaven is a traditional Sunday roast
in a wonky-walled pub, a platter of dainty cakes in an elegant
tearoom or Michelin-starred feasts dressed up to the nines, Ludlow
pulls out all the stops. It also hosts fantastic farmers'
markets and the hugely popular Ludlow Marches Food & Drink
Festival every September.
Burn off those calories and pull on those boots! Our Ludlow
cottages offer wonderful walks right from the door. Enjoy leisurely
strolls on Whitcliffe Common or follow the Mortimer Trail - the
tourist office has stacks of leaflets on routes. Other pursuits
include horse-riding, cycling and fishing, or why not hire a boat
from the Linney Riverside Park?
Step back in time along Ludlow's historic streets, lined
with over 500 listed buildings, architecturally striking with their
black-and-white and Georgian features. Explore the ruins of Ludlow
Castle right in the centre of town and enjoy open-air concerts and
theatre. Visit St. Laurence's Church and the Ludlow Museum. Or
take the short drive to Stokesay Castle or Berrington Hall.
For shopping, our Ludlow cottages score high marks and
you'll find lots of lovely specialist shops showcasing
jewellery, antiques, crafts and more. There's also a lively
street market and medieval Christmas Fayre.
Or book a Ludlow cottage and have a flutter at
'Britain's friendliest racecourse'. Something for
everyone!
