“Although within a short walk of the ...”

Although within a short walk of the town centre, and surrounded by other cottages, it was remarkably quiet. It's a lovely part of town, and the people we met locally were very friendly.

Although within a short walk of the town centre, and surrounded by other cottages, it was remarkably quiet. It's a lovely part of town, and the people we met locally were very friendly. The one drawback was the car parking; the metered parking on the road was usually full up by the time we got back in the evening. The free parking in town was very good, but involved a bit of an uphill walk. Having said that, it was as advertised.

The property

Sat in a fabulous mid-terrace position within the beautiful Shropshire market town of Ludlow is this character-filled, three-storey cottage.

Enhanced by stunning exposed beams and stonework, whilst sitting within close proximity to the wondrous countryside and fabulous towns of the area, this is the perfect stay for groups of four looking to get away from it all or a romantic break for couples.

Feel right at home from the moment that you enter this redbrick retreat, as you are greeted by a spacious yet cosy living/dining room with calming neutral décor, beams and an alluring woodburner housed in a beautiful stone fireplace, making it a superb spot to let your hair down of an evening.

Adjacent to this is a traditional-style kitchen, boosted by quarry tiled flooring and lined with pleasant cream units, as well as a charming two-seater breakfast bar to enjoy the early hours at.

Take the quirky narrow staircase to the first floor to discover the delightful, all-white bathroom, as well as an attractively furnished double bedroom offering a peaceful and comfortable spot to get your rest.

A further set of stairs lead you into the snug converted loft space; twin single beds rest wonderfully under the sloping ceiling, while wooden beams and Velux windows finish it off beautifully.

To the rear of the property is what gives Garden Cottage its name; a serene, long and narrow stretch of lawn comes bursting with colourful flora, while a patio area provides the perfect spot to admire it all from.

Take the pretty and relaxing stroll into the captivating town centre with ease from here; you will find many quirky listed buildings, the dramatic Ludlow Castle, and a wealth of magnificent spots to enjoy a delicious snack or a drink or two in one of the many traditional old inns.

For more of this, head to the equally impressive towns of Church Stretton, Hereford and Shrewsbury, while those who prefer the outdoors can trek through the glorious Shropshire Hills AONB close by.

To escape from everyday life for a while, consider a stay at the marvellous Garden Cottage in Ludlow.
