  • "We all liked Curly's Cottage."

    It was welcoming , clean and comfortable and in the recent heatwave the (small but perfectly formed) patio area was a godsend.The attention to detail was outstanding with all the equipment and appliances you could ever need.

  • "Stunning holiday cottage!"

    The owners have thought of everything to ensure a very comfortable stay for their guests and was extensively equipped. We loved the decor, furniture,and accessories - all very stylish indeed. Perfect location in the bustling historic town of Much Wenlock. We visited Bridgenorth, Shrewsbury Town and the Ironbridge the latter our favourite. A lovely gesture from the owners is to issue afternoon cream vouchers but sadly for me they didn't do gluten free which appears to be an issue in some places. However we did dine at the Gaskill Hotel who cooked gluten free beautiful sauces. All four pubs in the town were warm and friendly and we were sorry we had just missed serving Sunday lunch at the Talbot which diners seem to be enjoying! We definitely want to return to Much Wenlock and in particular Curly's cottage and we highly recommend it to other fellow travellers.

    .! It was such a beautiful, cosy cottage, so clean and comfortable with everything you could possibly need. The owners had thought of everything and had clearly spent a lot of time and attention on the property making sure it was to the highest standard. From the furniture to the bedding to the towels, it was all high quality and clearly no corners had been cut! Would absolutely stay again and would highly recommend.

  • "Cannot find fault anywhere with this accommodation."

    Filled with the very best appliances, very comfortable beds, Sky TV, spotlessly clean. Apart from the A1 appraisal of the cottage, it is located no more than 25metres from one of 4 local pubs, a few metres farther to the high street wher yo can find an interesting and quaint array of shops. There's a small Museum in the village and the ruins of Much Wenlock Priory are easy walking distance. The bus stop is a two minute walk from the front door with regular buses to Bridgnorth, Shrewsbury and Ironbridge and just our good fortune but sunny everyday which was great for February. As you can guess we couldn't praise this place enough, just get it booked and enjoy

    Enjoyed walking around town with great shops. Garage is short distance from cottage who allowed me borrow shopping trolley to wheel back several bags of logs. Lighting up the log burner each evening with a glass of wine was exactly the retreat i needed.
