“The cottage was very clean and comfortable in a quiet location.”

Gill, the owner, left us some chocolates and a goody bag for our little dog, who really appreciated it, and we didn't need to bring things like handwash and washing-up liquid, which was appreciated. All in all, we enjoyed our stay there and hope to visit again. Thank you Gill and Tim.

“Yes. The cottage was fully equipped.”

There was a communal washing machine which we didn't use so no ironing board in the cottage. Basically it was very clean but the sofa and armchairs need attention. So much dust came out when anyone sat down that our 13 year old granddaughter had respiratory problems and had to use an inhaler, a pity because otherwise no complaints. The owners are very friendly without being intrusive and a very nice cake greeted us on arrival.

“Excellent Place to Stay - Would Highly Reccomend!”

Botvyle Farm Holiday Cottage - Caradoc (our cottage) was lovely and a great base for visiting lots of interesting things in the area. Fantastic Views, great for local walking if you're into that. Owners very friendly and welcoming. Only thing to be slightly aware of is that mobile phone signal is slightly patchy in the area (virgin mobile). However the Cottages WIFI / internet more than made up for it (enabling us to easily check out things to do during our stay). If you are considering staying in the area and these cottages are available, Book Now! or miss out on a great holiday cottage =)

“The location, actually on the slope of Caer Caradoc, could not have been better for what we wanted to do.”

The cottages (Caradoc is one of five or six) are spacious, comfortable, clean and private. Everything worked and Gill was around if needed (we didn't). We're absolutely delighted and would like to stay again.

“The wonderful location and comfort of the cottage.”

- Ms Shaw, April 2019
“Although somewhat dated in it's decor and furnishings the cottage was warm, cosy and comfortable.”

It was well equipped and in a good location for lots of walks. We were very impressed that the owners had not only left us (and our dogs) a very nice welcome pack but that they had also gone to the trouble of putting up a christmas tree and decorations.

“Comfy and cosy holiday cottage in a great location.”

Lovely and warm. Very clean. Nice owners. Definitely recommend it.

- Mrs Schofield, October 2018
“The cottage is ideally situated for visiting the Strettons and for walking in the beautiful Shropshire Hills.”

In fact we were able to walk from Church Stretton back to the cottage via Caer Caradoc hill fort. Glorious views from the top all the way to the Wrekin ! We also walked in Carding Mill Valley, along the Stiperstones and Long Mynd - all within a short drive of the cottage. The cottage is immaculate, cosy and welcoming with good beds and bathrooms, practical tiled floors, and an airing cupboard for drying damp gear (although the weather was mainly excellent). It was a pleasure to wash up looking up at Caer Caradoc and watching great spotted woodpeckers on the bird feeder ! In fact birding was excellent all week - buzzard, kestrel, red kite, raven, fieldfare, bullfinch, goldcrest …. On our last night we treated ourselves to an excellent dinner at The Ragleth Inn. A very enjoyable week.

“A lovely stay at Caradoc.”

Outstanding area for walkers and plenty of interesting places to visit only a short distance away by car. Accommodation was excellent and very clean. Beautiful quiet spot with lovely views of the hills both near and far. Tim and Gill were very helpful and we were lucky enough to arrive the week end of a Tractor Rally which was starting and finishing at the farm. A great experience.

“Perfect place to stay”

WOW! What a place to stay! This house provides everything you could want. Peace, quiet, views, well supplied cottage, kind, informative hosts, easy to get to with a welcome package on arrival. The cottage is all on one level which suited my aunt and elderly friends. The serenity that this place offers is awesome.
