Ms Cawdron
October 2020

“Our holiday was set for April 2020 and your response to the national lockdown was clear and refreshingly simple, so we easily rebooked for October.”

Our hosts were friendly and welcoming, the Cornhouse (and the farm itself) was really clean and tidy. We were warm and comfortable. There were flowering plants everywhere in the farmyard. We saw stars, birds & bats, heard barn owls. It was a great base for Ironbridge, Shrewsbury and walks on the Long Mynd, Wenlock Edge and, of course, the Wrekin which looks down on the farm. Excellent holiday, easy arrangements, kind hosts, 5 star. Thank you

“The Corn House was fantastic, really nicely done.”

It was so quiet, peaceful and tranquil despite there being other holiday cottages on the site. Derek was so helpful and Molly the dog is adorable. I would recommend this cottage to everyone.

“VERY RELAXING AND COSY HOLIDAY IN THE CORN HOUSE.”

GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP. OWNERS REALLY WORK HARD ESPECIALLY RUNNING A CATTLE FARM TOO. ALSO THE OWNER KEEPS THE SURROUNDING AREAS VERY NEAT AND TIDY. THE DRIVE UP THE LANE A BIT HAIRY. COULD DO WITH SOME OF THE OTHER FARMERS HELPING TO CUT BACK SOME BUSHES ETC. OTHER PEOPLE STAYING THERE VERY FRIENDLY. WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE WANTIING PEACE AND QUIET. LOVED MOLLY THE BORDER COLLEY, VISITED EVERY DAY AND SO ADORABLE. PLENTY OF NICE PLACES TO VISIT.

“The Corn House was one of several cottages set on a farm, a beautiful setting which was peaceful but in easy reach of nearby attractions and towns.”

The cottage was cosy and quaint and the beds were really comfortable for a good night sleep , however what let it down was cleanliness, on arrival the fridge was dirty with left over food crumbs and milk stains and I felt the need to clean it before putting in my own food . The tea cups , sugar dish and cheese grater all still had food remains on them ,we have stayed in numerous cottages beforehand and have never had to clean on arrival. Wifi could be improved and the bathroom although clean, for appearances the shower could really do with a mould and mildew treatment.

“Our first family holiday in Shropshire and it was a great choice.”

Once used for storing grain, the Corn House felt cosy, yet was roomy enough for 2 adults and 2 teenagers to co-exist peacefully! The kitchen was well equipped, there was always plenty of hot water and the beds comfortable. We loved sitting outside in the evening sunshine with a glass of wine to just enjoy the tranquility of it all. A fab location for exploring nearby Ironbridge and beyond. We rafted on the river, visited the Victorian Village at Blists Hill, explored Ludlow and its castle and walked part of Carding Mill Valley in the famous Shropshire Hills. A fantastic week - we have already recommended the Corn House to a number of friends with similar aged children!

“Third time here...not the last”

My wife and I have stayed at Morrels Wood three times now, twice in the dairy and once in the Cornhouse. Lovely relaxing surroundings, comfortable accommodation and well worth the drive down the lane

“A beautiful, cosy, farmyard cottage”

Me and my partner just returned from a weekend stay in the Cornhouse, which was a lovely break away. The cottage is located on a farm, with stunning views across the local countryside. There is lots to see around the local area, especially the Ironbridge gorge. Will definitely be coming back. And the sponge cake waiting for us when we arrived was a nice touch :)
