“Virginia Cottage is beautiful, clean, comfortable and has everything you would need for a staycation.”

It is part of a working farm and the surrounding countryside is spectacular.

It is part of a working farm and the surrounding countryside is spectacular. Ideally situated near Church Stretton, Ludlow and Shrewsbury with easy access to the Shropshire Hills and the A5 taking you into Wales. We enjoyed our week in this lovely cottage, despite some unsettled weather. We can definitely recommend this cottage and hope to visit again soon.

“Amazing Cottage”

We have just stayed at Vaginia Cottage for a week, a can't put into words how amazing this place this! Very well looked after, the cottage is immaculate, spacious and well kitted out! Penny and Henry the owners made us feel very welcome, we were told if we needed anything all we had to do was ask. I was sad to leave the cottage on Friday i loved it that much. My 2 girls aged 4 and 8 and myself and my wife have fallen in love with this gorgeous cottage, and we cant wait to return. So penny and Henry thank you once again, and we hoped you liked your flowers and thank you card. See you all next year! Best wishes Richard and Kimberley Lord

“Having stayed in quite a few holiday cottages over the years, I can honestly say that Virginia Cottage was one of the best, if not THE best, I have ever experienced.”

It was extremely well equipped, especially with kitchen items, wonderfully warm and spotlessly clean. The layout is very nice, with the kitchen/dining area connected to the lounge so that you're able to chat and socialise even if you're the one doing the cooking. It also has a wonderful wood burner. The owners are extremely helpful and friendly, and made us feel very welcome. I would absolutely recommend Virginia Cottage for a relaxing break in pretty countryside.

“A warm and corfortable luxury break.”

The cottage provided a good base for touring Shrophshire with good walks out of the front door for the dog. The whole atmosphere was relaxing and peaceful. The local shop/ P.O. stocked the daily papers and other essential but often forgotten items. Hope to return again soon.

“Week of R & R”

We had an awesome weeks rest in Virginia Cottage, the owners where fantastic people, I only wish we could have stayed longer. The cottage was beautifully appointed with everything you could want for a perfect break. I come from a farming background so the peace and quite of this farm forming a part of the village reminded me of my childhood from Cross Farm in Eastry, Kent. I would wholeheartedly recommend this cottage to anyone with or without animals.

“Excellent holiday cottage”

This is a beautiful cottage, lovely decor and facilities. Lovely to have a choice of outdoor eating areas, too. All on one level so perfect for families. The owners were friendly and helpful. We recommend visiting acton Burnell castle, just a few minutes walk from the cottage. A perfect spot for a picnic or walk. We loved the cottage and the area - a lovely holiday,

“Delightful Stay in Beautiful Home and Surroundings”

"The cottage was beautiful and lovely and clean and very comfortable. Had all the things you require a home to have from essential cooking utensils to home comforts. The owners Penny and her Husband and their family were most hospitable." Would highly recommend a visit here. Some lovely pubs to visit in surrounding areas too. We hope to return one day very soon!.

“Best Holiday Accomodation you could wish for!”

The service we received was excellent. The Holiday Accomodation was perfect. There was everything you could want and more besides! We were all impressed with the wonderful layout and comfort of the home. The location was quiet and peaceful. My only complaint(besides the weather) was there were no close amenities, you had to drive everywhere.

The property

A superb conversion of a former barn, Virginia Cottage is situated on a working farm on the edge of Acton Burnell in this peaceful and undiscovered area of Shropshire.

Detached and built of traditional local brick, the cottage offers accommodation of a very high standard being tastefully decorated in a contemporary yet cosy style.

It is light and airy throughout and there are French doors opening onto two private patio areas where guests can relax with a glass of wine on warm summer evenings.

The owners live at the farm and personally welcome visitors.

A perfect retreat to 'get away from it all' and explore the hidden delights of Shropshire!
