“A lovely location from which to explore the Shropshire Hills, comfortable and peaceful, a really enjoyable break.”

- Mrs Davis, September 2020
Mrs Moutrie September 2020

“The directions to the cottage were not very helpful and we spent an hour trying to find the cottage, we had to stop and ask someone in the end.”

More detailed directions would have helped.

“The holiday cottage was lovely.”

The owner very kind and helpful which was much appreciated. We had a lovely holiday. I usually book directly with owners and this is what I'll do in the future. Sykes were extremely unhelpful. I realise that these are difficult times, but while you managed to send me frequent adverts you were unable to respond by email; phone or letter ( all methods I used to try to contact you ) to discuss our booking. You would be wise to devote more attention to your customer services rather than advertising.

“The cottage has lovely views and is in a beautiful setting.”

It is well equipped and comfortable. One of the main factors in booking was the large garden. Sadly this is open to the farm cottage so the neighbours 3 dogs can visit whenever they want which meant our youngest would not play in the garden as she is nervous around dogs. The owner made us beautiful wheat free and diary free cakes on arrival and also checked in with us a few times to see if we had everything we needed. Would definitely visit again, especially if our youngest has overcome her fear of dogs!

“It was a real holiday cottage.”

It had everything we required. The beds were good and the big double excellent. The views outside were stunning as was the quiet. The only drawback was that the flue for the boiler was too near the seating area and windows. This area is not on the tourist map and has lots of interesting walks to test out your map reading skills. We have been coming to Bishops Castle on and off since 1987 and still find places of interest.
