    ! We all felt so at home there. For a big house it was lovely and warm, we made the most of the hot tub, but the wind

    We hope to return again next year

    We loved the hot tub and the wood burner and it was lovely to be able to eat together in the dining room. There was plenty of room for everyone and the separate snug was a real bonus for the teenagers. The area is beautiful and we enjoyed saying good morning to the sheep every day!

    Secluded with beautiful views across the countryside, but near enough to shops. Comfortable and well and thoughtfully-equipped. (In fact, there was more than advertised, eg an extra high-chair/baby equipment which would have been useful to know about). Would recommend.

  • "We stayed at Bicton Lea over Christmas, there were 10 of us, 7 adults and 3 children and we had plenty of room for us all."

    The house is beautiful and so are the surroundings, it was perfect for a group holiday. The house has everything you need and we were very thankful for the large american fridge/freezer and the pantry! The bedrooms are all large and very comfortable. The lounge was big enough for us all to sit comfortably and with the fire on was very cosy. The hot tub was lovely and the host was very helpful with providing cots, stair gates and highchairs for our little ones. The only negative thing we could say about our stay was that it went too quickly! We would definitely recommend Bicton Lea and definitely will be back one day!

    There was a family of 9 plus 2 dogs and we all loved it. Everything we needed and rooms beds etc all lovely and clean. Gorgeous Christmas tree in the conservatory and fairy lights lighting up the staircase made the atmosphere perfect. As a family we are unable to spend Christmas Day together and the time here was ‘our’ Christmas together it was perfect. Would stay again.

    Great space to allows people to come together, but also enough space to allow you to have your own time. We enjoyed using the space to have dinner and breakfast together while hosting our own little cocktail night via the kitchen hatch. We made great use of the hot tub, which was maintained every morning by the owners. It was nice to sit outside either morning, afternoon or night and take in the views while having a glass of fizzy. The snug under the stairs was a great touch, a few of us enjoyed completing the 1000piece jigsaw as well as playing card games. The beds were incredibly comfortable, we all managed to get peaceful sleeps. A massive thank you for this home, after loosing one of our best friends who was meant to join us on this getaway we still managed to enjoy ourselves and she would of loved this property. Thank you again.

  • "The property is lovely and situated in beautiful countryside with great views."

    Lovely garden, ideal for families and dogs. The property is extremely well equipped and the big bonus for us compared to other houses we have used in the past was the generous space to store food! Great to have a pantry for that. Comfortable seating in lounge although recliners didn't seem to work. Nice to eat together in dining room, there is room for the whole group if you add a couple of chairs from the conservatory. I'd have preferred comfy seating in the conservatory as it's got great views and woul be a perfect spot to relax. Easy to keep clean with a covered porch, leading to utility space for cleanimg muddy boots and dogs. Lots of space to park several vehicles. The only downside for us was the ridiculous check out time of 9am. This spoils the last breakfast and impinges on evening before. I understand the owners have 3 properties to clean but this approach basically leaves you a day short with late check in and the early check out. With the need to strip beds and empty and clean the property before leaving it is a very early start on the last morning. Otherwise everything about this place is brilliant and I would definitely recommend it.

  • "Had a lovely weekend break at Bicton Lea."

    Fabulous countryside, and views. The house is spacious, we had a party of 9, 6 adults, 3 teenagers and 1 dog. Garden is large, so the dog could run around to his hearts content. The only downside was that there wasn’t enough seating in the dinning room or sitting room for us all to be together. There are 2 dinning rooms one seating 6 and the other, which is through double doors and down a step in the conservatory, seating 4. The sitting room had a large recliner that sat 5, and a tub chair. Again there was another sitting room that sat 3. The separate rooms are great if you have members of your party that want to sit separately , but as we were having a family celebration we did want to been together in the evening. It would be ideal to have these details in the summary section on the booking page.

    Thankyou for your review, the layout is clearly stated on the property description when booking and can be seen in the pictures. Property Owner

    The second TV room was brilliant for the teenagers and giving us both a bit of space (both had big screen TVs!). The kitchen was really well kitted out and with a full length American style fridge freezer, so plenty of space. All the bedrooms were really good sizes (the master with en-suite is huge!!) And the family bathroom shower was really powerful, again often something that is a bit of a let down in other cottages). The dining area and conservatory were again brilliant in letting people split off into little private areas and we all loved the snug reading area under the stairs (stacked with books and games!). The whole place was really nicely decorated and felt new and everything was so clean. The garden was huge (dog had a great time) and again looked like new garden furniture with full size umbrella on the patio where we would sit and take in the fantastic view, plus the hot tub which was amazing (and checked everyday by Jason at about 530am- I only know because I happened to be awake one day as he was super quiet,). We cannot recommend the property enough,vthank you Jenna and lovely to chat to you too Jason, highly recommend!!!

    Our family loved the snug with ‘massive’ TV, and the garden which is beautiful with stunning views and we enjoyed the ponies looking over the fence. The kitchen is well equipped with an excellent fridge freezer but the two small ovens challenged cooking for a large group. An additional set of keys and/or a key safe would be a good addition. One family had a puncture at Ironbridge and had to wait 4 hours for the AA involving the other family driving a 2 hour round trip to collect the only keys. Also be sure to drive very slowly down the access road there are potholes!

    The only option provided were feather duvets and pillows. Our (adult) son is allergic to feathers and so we had to improvise for him, which wasn't ideal. If you're only going to offer one option, synthetic would be safer. Also, duvets were heavy which was just about OK in October but would have been far too hot in June/July.

    The photos on the website do not do it justice. Some maintenance is required as things are getting tired. Owner was a little too attentive for our liking and spoiled the privacy that we wanted and the garden is not secure for dogs (open to their sheep field). I was concerned that the sheep grazing on the lawn hindered our own dogs to be running loose and free unattended 100%. We vacated a night early due to this so left on the Sunday afternoon. I would probably not return to this venue but I would recommend to others just with a few pointers regards our experience.

The property

Clun 2 miles.

Bicton Lea is a beautifully finished large stone house located near Clun and the beauty of Clun Valley.

The accommodation provides a high-quality location for two families or a large group, a luxurious base for a holiday in the Shropshire Hills.

The ground floor has a large kitchen with breakfast bar, amply sized and fitted out to cater for your full complement of guests.

The dining room stretches into the conservatory and has seating facilities to match your party size.

If seated dining is too formal, there is a separate TV room designed with viewing pleasure in mind with its outsized wall-mounted television and three seater recliner sofa.

The sitting area is large enough for your full group, with two luxurious L-shaped sofas to sit around the woodburner fire and look out at the stunning views.

There are five bedrooms on the first floor; one king size, three doubles and one twin.

The beautifully maintained lawns lead you out to a property highlight, a summer house with outdoor hot tub, perfect for relaxing on warm sunny evenings.

Or for those not keen on the bubbles, a large patio picnic table is located outside.

If you can tear yourself away from your luxurious base, two miles away is Clun where you can have a pub meal or picnic near the river and castle ruins before embarking on the Clun Valley Heritage Trail.

There are half a dozen Walkers are Welcome towns in the vicinity, of which Clun is one, but if you fancy heading further afield then the charms of Ludlow are a 20 mile ride away.

Bicton Lea is ideal for large groups or two families to have a high-quality, peaceful base for a holiday in the Shropshire Hills.

About the location

CLUN

Bishop's Castle 6 miles; Ludlow 18 miles.

A.E. Houseman's poem, A Shropshire Lad, defined Clun as 'the quietest place under the sun', and with its dramatic ruin of a Norman castle, Saxon church, the bustling river which flows under the 14th century pack horse bridge, and a country inn, Clun is a rural gem situated in the South Shropshire Hills. It lies on the Shropshire Way in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close to the border of Wales, an area known as The Marches. This unspoilt part of Britain has an abundance of wildlife and beautiful unhindered walking and cycling routes winding their way through the countryside with the Clun and Kerry Forests, Offa's Dyke, and Kerry Ridgeway all close by. There are a wide range of festivals and shows on offer in the surrounding area throughout the year, including The Green Man festival in May. From Clun, you can also enjoy exploring the historic towns of Bishop's Castle, Presteigne, Ludlow, Shrewsbury, and Hereford, a must for visitors.
