“Good base for exploring the surrounding area, plenty to do for all ages.”

We really liked the cottage,although we weren't impressed by the lack of supplies there when we arrived. By this l mean- No toilet rolls,no kitchen roll,no dishwasher tablets,very little washing-up liquid and very little handwash liquid in the kitchen,and one spare bin liner for the kitchen bin! We were also a towel short,which apparently the cleaner had noted earlier. The owner soon provided us with that,along with one(!) toilet roll-there were four of us staying there! I felt awkward having to ask for the extra towel and a toilet roll as soon as we had arrived,but the cottage is not exactly close to a shop! As we have previously stayed in one of your properties with everything left fully stocked,we hadn't brought much with us. Were we just lucky last time,or just unlucky this time? Needless to say we could have brought these items from home,if we had known the situation. Perhaps someone there would be good enough to send a reply in case we want to book another holiday through yourselves in the future? Thanking you in advance.

Very well equipped, all comforts thought of, beautiful decor throughout. Set in idyllic, peaceful and tranquil countryside yet only a few miles to nearest facilities, pubs, restaurants etc. Very private setting, with very friendly owners.

. after moving house we needed some family chill time and this cottage just hit the spot. Very quirky little cottage clean and comfy.. we loved the log burner and my husband enjoyed waching the night skies whilst sitting around the outdoor fire pit. We had custard the pony to greet us every morning and a little pug from the owner that would visit which my daughter loved.. our dog was also happy as we had lovely walks with him.. a gated farm so we all felt safe.. the owners house was lite up at night with fairy lights which looked stunning. . Very friendly owners gave us logs for the fire pit and greeted us.. although we had a very private place to ourselves.. came back all refreshed thank you ..will be back!!!

Mrs Winstanley, October 2017
“The cottage was an ideal base from which to explore the area.”

It was clean and comfortable. Our hosts were inobtrusive but on hand to help if needed. All in all a perfect getaway for a week.

Mr Osborne, October 2017
“Lovely cottage.”

Very clean and in a good location.

Mrs Hicks, September 2017
“Although the weather wasn't very good we enjoyed the peace and quiet and the wood stove was the best thing we could have had.”

Mr Kinselley, September 2017
“The WiFi did not work at all during our stay which made it hard to search for places to visit.”

Be aware there is no mobile phone signal at the cottage, calls have to be made when out and about. This aside, we could not fault the property.

A well equipped cottage with the biggest bed I have ever slept in. You could chase the wife round it all night without catching her. The WiFi was a bit iffy to start with but got better when the owner fixed it and from then on we got good reception. The cottage is some distance from the nearest pub or shops. Shrewsbury is worth a visit. There are walks in the adjacent fields and on the quiet lane next to the cottage. The one big problem is when I decided to walk in the fields next to the lane. A rather pompous and quite officious person told me it was his land

We chose this cottage as we were looking for a pet friendly place and also required facilities on the ground floor, it was perfect on both counts. The downstairs bedroom has an enormous bed, with very comfortable bedding, there is also another double bed on a mezzanine level, the cottage would suit 4 people comfortably It was only refurbished a few years ago and they have completed it very tastefully and it is a beautifully decorated comfy cottage. It is located on the owners land, in front of their house, but you have plenty of privacy, the cottage overlooks a field where there are 2 delightful horses, who enjoyed there daily treats. There are 2 areas to sit and relax outside, with seating provided in both places, it is a great sun trap,perfect in the evening for chilling with a glass of wine The location is within driving distance to many local towns, and the Ironbridge Gorge and museums Overall a lovely cottage that we will return too.

We had a fantastic weeks stay at Strine View Cottage along with our dog. The owners where incredibly helpful and had built and equipped the cottage perfectly. We chose this place as it looked so lovely from the photos but they actually didn't do it the justice it deserves. Staying away in the autumn sometimes means a lot of time indoors so the big comfy sofas and a wood burner were just the ticket. The mezzanine bedroom was also a great feature and the cottage felt so spacious. We had plans to visit places near Stafford, Cheshire and even North Wales and the great location allowed us to easily do so. On our return, we were often met by the owners friendly dog and had plenty of space to walk our dog, park the car and sit outside in one of the two seating areas when we had a rare bit of sunshine. Had it of been a different time of year, the available bar-b-que would have been great. The cottage was so quiet and well away from any road noise. There was everything we required and we had a lovely relaxing break which we really needed.
