“The property is in a very quiet ...”
The property is in a very quiet rural location , which suited us as we like the piece and quiet ....but you are out in the 'sticks ' and this wouldn't suit everybody . We had our two dogs with us both 14 years old and as one doesn't walk so well it was perfect with a huge garden and fields ajecent for us to walk in. The cottage is much larger then it looks on the photos and it's plenty big enough inside for a couple and dogs. The settee isn't that comfy and the only other seating is at the table and chairs in the kitchen area . Although the weather was nice when we were there and we sat outside also . There is a bench and a picnic table . The cottage was warm we did put the Heaters on one night when it went about chilly. They made it nice and cosy. There were lots of plates cutlery and pots and pans. The kettle wasn't very nice as it was really very full off lime scale I know this is tricky if you live in an area with this problem ....but it either needs to be cleaned out or perhaps buy cheap kettles that can easily be replaced ....I just boiled water in a pan for making a drink it wasn't a problem . . Cooker was great ...nice big oven ...washer great.....nice big long line to peg out on. Nice fridge freezer .Shower was nice and warm although again think head needed a clean out due to limescale as water from head was coming out at all angels . Bed was comfy ....the owner was lovely extremely friendly we saw him on arrival and he welcomed us...we didn't see him after that s he was away . He made us feel most welcome and told us directions for shops and to make full use of the garden etc. There were lots of nice books in the cottage of which I read some , andgames , magazines The drive down to the cottage is down a long lane in places this it extremely narrow ...can be tricky if other cars Lorries are coming in the opposite direction as there a few passing places . It's not many minutes from Shrewsbury in one direction and market Drayton in the other and some smaller places in between worth a visit all very dog friendly . A week was a little long for us and we felt that a 4 day break would of suited us better . Only because like I said our dogs are old and we felt we had been to most places and see what we wanted to see and do. We did enjoy our stay very much , we felt the price we paid was a good one the distance we travelled was easy as it didn't take us long to get there...and the owner was lovely and said we could get in by dinner time ...so we had a full day. Often you can't get in till the afternoon so that was great. I would recommend this cottage to anyone wishing to get away from it all the scenery is stunning and if you enjoy being outdoors ,walking, countryside this would be right up your street . And this cottage is extremely dog friendly ....that for us was brilliant ! thank you for making us and two old dogs very happy!
