Top Farm Cottage

Lovely cosy cottage, well equipped, with an extremely comfortable bed and very helpful owners.

Would recommend the cottage and the local pub The Bradford Arms for delicious food and friendly staff.

Lovely little cottage for me and my dog.

Cosy, clean, good facilities to cook, cute, characterful, private parking. Comfy bed and sofa. Pub and shop walking distance. Private paddock to pop the dog around.

Beautiful place

There were no instructions on how to use the underfloor heating, and no shaving point in the shower room.

The cottage is well equipped and has plenty of storage space.

A bit difficult to find but once we got there the facilities were good and the owners helpful.

Lovely place and area for dog owners

We had a lovely week in top farm cottage ,Peaceful, Relaxing, Owners couldn't do enough for our stay.

Nockin is a lovely village and the people to.PS,Especially the Knockin Shop

Cosy little cottage, we had an enjoyable stay here.

Had everything we needed for a long weekend. We were only left one dishwasher tablet and one toilet roll. The host quickly provided extra dishwasher tablets, but we didn't realise about the toilet roll until late in the evening which was a bit inconvenient. The village pub is handy and has a great beer garden with plenty of shade. Very secure small courtyard to the rear of the cottage and a lovely big field, great for dogs - ours loved it! I usually book really out of the way places so I found that there was a bit too much traffic noise at times, saying that we were there over one of the heat wave weekends and had all of the doors and windows open, so it probably wouldn't be as noticeable if the weather were cooler.

We stayed for 3 nights and found the cosy cottage to be very nice and comfortable and would recommend staying there.

The milk and biscuits were a lovely addition. Our friendly hosts introduced themselves in passing and were able to recommend a couple of places to dine out in. Shropshire is a lovely part of the country to visit and we’ll be back.

Would have liked a few cleaning products.

Also maybe a radio.

A lovely cosy cottage, perfect for my dog and myself.

She was able to go in the little courtyard to chill out and the big field just a few steps away was wonderful for her nightly game of ball. The only observation with the courtyard gate was that the bolt did not fully go into it's hole so that was slightly insecure for the dog and the gate made a noise when the wind blew but I was able to make-do there no problem. The bed and sofas were very comfortable, bathroom cosy, kitchen looked well equipped, I hardly cooked as I visited family nearly every day. Parking was easy. Also lots of local paths for us to walk. The local shop was handy too with a friendly shopkeeper to have a little chat with. I thought it was a lovely renovated little property and hopefully will return. The milk and biscuits were also welcome, thank you for those. All in all a very enjoyable week.

We had a wonderful relaxing break away.

Lovely to be met by Margaret and told us everything we needed to know. Plenty of car parking and access. Great to have milk and biscuits waiting for us. Everything was clean and tidy and perfectly stocked. Very cosy and homely. Loved the underfloor heating in the kitchen. So did the dog. Great little secluded courtyard with a table and chairs for our dog to wander around, and us to sunbathe privately. Great that the cottage all on one level for the dog too. TV was excellent through the WIFI as we have at home, and we got all channels we needed and more. More channels than we do at home. Never missed any of our shows. Perfect reception. WIFI reception for our mobiles was perfect. Field and sun house at the back was good to sit in the cool and watch the sunset. Knockin shop convenience store a very short walk away was well stocked and very friendly. The Bradford Arms very welcoming and dog friendly pub easy walk up the road. Perfect easy flat Public Footpath walks all around the village. Enjoyed wandering up to the Shropshire telescope in the field to watch it move or not. Easy driving access to Montgomery Canal and local villages and towns and chip shop. Great coming back to the cottage after a day out. Friends now ready to book. We will return. Highly recommended

parking is limited and mobile and TV signal is none existent other than.

via the BT WiFi provided .. nice location and a decent field for our 4 legged friends. the local shop has a reasonable range of foods available

We had a fantastic relaxing break.

The cottage was a perfect getaway for week, with the husband and dog. Kitchen was fully fitted with everything you could need. The bathroom heated floor was nice as was the quality of the towels. The bed was comfortable, with plenty of space for storing clothes/ coats etc. I can highly recommend this cottage.

I spoke to your rep.

by phone after our stay & I have nothing to add

Perfect for us and our puppy.

Great to have the field for the dog to have a run around.

Great cottage lovely owners

Ideal for a relaxing break with your dog!

! Lovely cottage and very well contained

Excellent compact quiet cottage, very well positioned in the village.

Plenty of good dog walks locally. Lovely pub short walk away. Friendly owners. Pleasant stay. I would recomend for a one man and his dog type holiday

Absolutely lovely cottage, so cosy and comfortable, all fully equipped kitchen, lovely bedroom and bathroom.

Ideally located to explore the surrounding areas and into Wales. The biscuits and milk supplied was a extra lovely gesture. Would highly reccomend and hope to be back.

They advertise a DVD player and there isn’t one!

Only 6 mugs one of which is chipped. If you have a dishwasher you need more mugs, they are not expensive and it means you only need to put the dishwasher on maybe once every 2/3 days and save electricity. Was very surprised that there wasn’t a j cloth in the kitchen… not expensive and it does help with the washing up. A boot scraper by the front door would help as there’s no hall to stand in and it will save the front room carpet getting dirty! Also when wiping the kitchen floor on the 3rd day it was black so hadn’t been washed properly for some time!

delightful cosy cottage very comfortable and spotlessly clean.

very well equipped and comfortable bed. Owner very nice and welcoming and the cottage is well placed for visiting area's of Shropshire. We would stay here again

One of the nicest little cottages I have ever stayed in.

Every facility and very smartly kept. Situated so conveniently with a shop and pub and regular bus service to Shrewsbury at hand. I intend to visit again in the not too distant future. Chris Bruce

Third stay at the cottage.

Always comfortable, clean and tidy. Host's were friendly and helpful as always. Still a great base for relaxing and for seeing the Shropshire & Welsh countryside.

My dog spent the first few minutes of our arrival trying to get his nose under the sofa, when I put my hand under to feel what he was after, I could feel crumbs and old food.

Underneath the sofa hadn't been cleaned in ages - it was filthy. The sofa was very easy to move so it shouldn't have posed a problem We could find no instructions for the dishwasher and, never having owned one, we hadn't got a clue so, since there was no washing up bowl, we had to wash up in the sink. Trouble was the plug didn't fit properly and the water very quickly drained away. We did (eventually - when we were packing up) find the instructions for the microwave, but they were pushed up on the top shelf in the kitchen wall cupboard. The 2 sofas were very tired looking, too soft and quite grubby. The windows (what windows there were - it was very dark) looked as though they hadn't been cleaned all season. The bathroom was so dark it was impossible for my husband to shave and anyway, the shaving mirror was 'floppy' and wouldn't stay where it was put. The flush on the toilet was very short and it never felt as though it wasn't enough to flush it properly. Under the bed was very dusty and one of the knobs on the bedroom drawers kept coming off. There were absolutely no cleaning products, so we were unable to clean anywhere before we left. A bottle of bleach for the toilet and plugholes wouldn't have been a bad idea. There was a Henry hoover but I was damned if I was going to use it and leave the place cleaner than we found it. We'd booked Friday to Friday, but, partly because of the weather but mainly because it just wasn't a nice place to spend our time, we left for home on the Tuesday. On a positive note, the people in the village are all very friendly. The shop seems to stock most things and the bread they sell is wonderful. We ate twice at the pub, staff were lovely and very heplful and it was very reasonable. Both times we were more than happy with our meal (although the sprouts were disgusting

Home from home

A lovely comfortable home for the week, very well equipped, very clean and fresh, perfect base for travelling around England and Wales, lovely pub just a couple minutes walk, and a handy convenience store , the only down side to it was we didn't stop for longer, highly recommended especially if you have a dog.

Great cottage, very clean, comfortable and well equipped.

Great position for exploring shropshire and over the border into Wales. Highly recommended.

Cottage was lovely very relaxing and comfortable, 1 of the frying pan wasn't very clean

Great place to stay great location.

Constructive criticism. The floor covering in the lounge is a definite trip hazard. Unable to sit in the bedroom to get dressed/ undressed had to use the lounge. Getting rid of the wooden end of the bed would make it easy to sit on the end of the bed.

Excellent place to stay loved every second of it, very quiet spot.

Good dog walking paths as well.

Small but perfectly formed.

Clean comfy well equipped. Perfect place to stay & explore the area... Lovely pub & shop just down the road..

A really comfortable cottage with everything that I needed.

Very clean, good shower, well equiped kitchen, reliable broadband and the enclosed courtyard which was excellent and safe for my dog. Easy parking on a large well maintained site shared with 2 other properties. Pub is conveniently close with a comprehensive menu. Easy access to Welsh boarder, Snowdonia and the coast.

What a fantastic find!

A very clean, cosy, very well equipped & comfortable cottage in a wonderful location with very friendly locals. Great walks for humans and dogs. The milk & biscuits were a lovely touch too. We've never been anywhere before that supplied a plethora of cleaning items & equipment...brilliant! Another nice touch was the book filled with information, could do with including refuse details though. We're extremely happy with our stay can't wait to book again, we'll done.

Comfortable and convenient cottage.

It would benefit from information on bin days and recycling. A small issue we had with hot water was dealt with lmmediately which was appreciated.

This is our second stay at this lovely cottage.

Always spotlessly clean and an extremely comfortable bed. Will be back.

Very comfortable cosy cottage that we stayed at for a couple of weeks whilst doing some renovations on our house up the road.

We had a lovely stay , cottage was lovely had everything you need for a holiday .

Thank-you for milk and biscuits on arrival.

This was a lovely little cottage.

Everything was as described, and we had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable too We had a great time and hope to return soon.

Very clean and well equipped with a well stocked local shop a minutes walk away and a decent pub a minute beyond that.

Niggles, not a major problem but information about which bin is for what would have been helpful. Also at the risk of sounding tightfisted I don't expect to have to buy toilet roll and cleaning items.

As this was our second time coming here I think it speaks for itself that we are extremely happy with the accommodation.

So much so that we have already booked for next year. Can't wait.

Fabulous cottage, we had a wonderful stay.

For a small cottage, it was so well equipped and ideally situated. We would definitely return.

Overall really good .

only issue was lack of information regarding recycling. And no instruction for rubbish disposal

As always at Top Farm perfect!

Margaret and Bob are brilliant hosts, we can’t wait to return again.

Lovely clean and comfortable,well equipped cottage in nice location.

Top Farm Cottage is a lovely cottage, the cottage was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay.

Lovely cottage really well equipped and clean.

Great location, everything we needed. Lovely walks Would recommend Great for us and our little dog

We had a lovely time at the cottage which was very comfortable.

Everything about the cottage was great.

Good layout with plenty of room in a one bedroom cottage to spread out a bit! Comfortable t and in a good location for touring. You definitely need a car to get around as the nearest town is some way away. If there was a washing machine or laundry facilities then it would be 100% perfect!

Lovely barn conversion, great location close to many castles and to tourist spots.

Excellent little cottage with everything we needed.

Immaculately clean. Great sleep in a really comfy bed. Perfect base for our break.

The cottage provided a comfortable, cosy place to stay suitable for two people.

All equipment required for our stay was provided, including a hair dryer. Easy reach of village shop and pub. Pub provided a warm welcome when visited. Parking for cottage was convenient. Easy access to local areas and tourist spots by car.

Lovely cottage, very comfortable.

Owners have thought of everything. Thank you.

Everything was fine.

It was warm, clean and well equipped for us to look after ourselves. The only down is no fault of the owners, the whole village suffers a lack of mobile phone communication, but in some circumstances this is not a bad thing. All round a good place to be.

Top Farm cottage is perfect , spotlessly clean ,well equipped with all the things you need and none of the stuff you don’t .

Everything has been thought of , down to the matching hangers , comfy bed and lovely bedding and towels. We had a lovely week in this well fitted out ,sweet cottage . Many thanks to the owners.

It was very comfortable & exceptionally clean lovely Scenery after being in lockdown for the best part of 18 months just the topic for the coming winter

Return visit for us (previously The Stables) The cottage is still as beautiful as it was before.

New owners are extremely helpful & friendly. Cottage was spotless. A beautiful spot to go out & about. Very comfortable & a real home from home

Really enjoyed our stay and hosts were helpful and accommodating.

Only slight issue was WiFi signal was a bit intermittent. Lovely part of the country with lots to see and do.

The cottage was exactly as described.

Very cosy and comfortable. It was in an ideal location for visiting all the interesting places Shropshire has to offer. Would definitely book again.

Gorgeous cottage!

Very clean, tidy, well-equipped, and the best bed we have every slept on! Handy for Oswestry and the supermarkets, cafes, restaurants, cafes, bars and shops. Near to many lovely walks, canals and fields, woods, and meadows - our little dog was very happy! Small (very!) sunny yard at the back which kept our dog safe, and where we used the small BBQ provided (just had to buy briquettes). Kind helpful contact who responded to every question quickly and helpfully. Could not have had a better stay, thank you

The cottage was excellent, and the welcome gifts were lovely.

The listing should mention the small freezer and hairdryer! Use of the field to exercise the dog was good, and he enjoyed playing in the patio area. A minor problem was dealt with quickly and efficiently. The local pub served excellent food and beer, and we did lots of walking in the surrounding area.

There being three properties on this site and plenty of parking and a good sized paddock the owners are happy for yo to use great for dogs nice courtyard and secure, you are not ontop of each other, would go again there was nothing we wanted for

The area is beautiful.

All the locals are friendly, warm and inviting. All really helpful and willing to share info on lovely places to go on your days out. Margaret and Bob were friendly and quick to respond when we had an issue. (Very minor issue but they were really apologetic and hoped it didn’t detract from us enjoying our stay). Recommend and we will definitely be coming back xx

Cottage is a very lovely cottage.

The owners are very friendly and welcoming and will try and do anything for you. We did have trouble getting food delivered (didnt turn up). If you are a light sleeper, be warned, you can hear the lorry's coming through the village at 4am onward's. My only complaint was that there was white dog hairs in the kitchen.

Hosts were very helpful.

Well equiped cottage. Welcome treats most appreciated. Good location to explore area, Oswestry and Shrewsbury not far away. Easy to get to North Wales. There is a field for dog exercise along driveway but did not let our 2 retrievers off as field, unfortunately not 100% secure which was a great pity as would have been beneficial to them. Otherwise would recommend.

Very nice stay at this cottage would recommend

Great place and fantastic owners, what more could anyone want?

Top Farm Cottage is a cosy, comfortable and well appointed quirky cottage.

The welcoming gifts are generous and the cottage is set in a charming village. We had a lovely time and made good use of the sunny and sheltered back yard.

new owners starting with very good set up and comfortable/helpfull people
