What guests are saying
Finished to a high standard the Hideaway lives up to its listing and provides a very comfortable and well-equipped base to relax in and visit Bishop's Castle and the surrounding area, .
The location is excellent, just off the High Street, with on-street parking on both the High Street and Station Road. Ross is a responsive, helpful and friendly host with good local knowledge, and Bishop's Castle is a charming small town with all the amenities you could wish for, including, as well as the usual shops, pubs, cafes etc., a traditional and highly recommended butcher, Andrew Pugh on Church Street.
Comfortable cottage.
Would stay again Comfy bed and pillows. Listing says two double beds but one was a king size bed Despite a music pub being a few feet away, late evening noise certainly wasn’t an issue. Neither was finding somewhere to park
Had a fabulous time.
The hideaway is a perfect place to stay. Very clean and modern, but still cosy. Very handy having a dishwasher and washing machine. We ate out at The castle hotel, just around the corner to the property. The food was delicious. All the national trust places were close by and Shrewsbury is a nice place to visit too. We visited Wales while we were there. We saw some lovely scenery.Many thanks Ross for a wonderful holiday. We will be back soon.
