"Owl’s Hollow?"
Well, an absolute gem. I’m very lucky to have spotted this wonderful lodge whilst looking for a holiday destination/accommodation. The location is just ideal if you’re looking for something very quiet, a perfect place to fully appreciate the beautiful countryside and just chill. Even though it is very rural, you don’t have to drive far to shops, pubs and places to explore. The lodge is beautifully set up, immaculately clean, very tastefully decorated. Simple, but luxurious. The kitchen is very well equipped, the bathroom and shower is just superb, the bed very comfy, wifi is superb, the decking area is south facing, so full sunshine all day (I was lucky enough to enjoy the weather!). In addition, a BBQ area is fully set up as well. I booked a 5 night stay, but ended up extending it as I loved it so much. The hosts (Emma and Edward) were lovely, very helpful and prompt in responding to requests/questions. I’m very much hoping to return one day!

"We have just had a wonderful weekend at Owls Hollow for our wedding anniversary."
What an absolute gem. It was just perfect for a romantic getaway. The kitchen was ideal with a full size hob and oven, and plenty of cupboard space. Very comfortable bed, with a huge picture window at the foot. We loved watching the Soay sheep roam the adjacent paddock, the kites soaring overhead, and the night skies here were just something else. We laid out on the deck to spot satellites every night. It was absolute heaven, we enjoyed a fire in the firepit outside one evening, and we are looking to come back in the winter to test out the log burner indoors. Be aware it is very remote with some narrow and at times, bumpy roads. Definitely brings lots of supplies to minimise trips out if you can. We visited nearby Clun which was a quaint little village, and had a very tasty Sunday lunch in The White Horse, which brew their own beer too. There is a well stocked spar in the village selling local beers as well, and a lovely cider but the name sadly escapes me. (Wine bottle size with a bottle cap, highly recommend) All in all, the most tranquil weekend I've had in a long time. Thank you to Emma and her husband for having us, we hope to be back.

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.
