“Sutherlands Drift was a great place for a family of three generations.”

The boys loved being on a farm, and granny enjoyed the peace of the setting. Lovely garden, and plenty of space for six of us. It was an excellent centre for exploring the area with the Ironbridge Gorge very near, beautiful countryside and walks and also not too far to Birmingham. Stephanie was really helpful in giving advice on trips and ensuring we were happy.

“Sutherland’s Drift was a superb place to stay.”

We are 3 generations and the accommodation suited us very well. Such a peaceful farm setting, full of amazing bird life. It was lovely to see the farm animals from the barn conversion. The host was very friendly and informative on the local area. We all loved it and would definitely stay again!
Mrs Simcock May 2019

“Had a fantastic week at Sutherlands Drift and will most probably stay there again.”

Stephanie was very welcoming. We enjoyed having fresh eggs every day and it was lovely to wake up every morning to birdsong and the sheep bleating in the fields. The swallows were fascinating. Our grandchildren visited us and wanted to stay but unfortunately they had to go to nursery the next day. Great place for young and old alike.

“Sutherland drift was everything we hoped for, and more.”

Quiet & comfortable, private and well hosted. Our children (8 and 11) loved the animals being around and the cottage had everything that we look for in a relaxing break.
Mr Skoczylas December 2018

“We had a very enjoyable family Christmas at Sutherland's Drift.”

The accommodation was just right, with ample room inside and outside for our toddlers to move about: they particularly liked to see the farm animals.
Mrs Crouch September 2018

“This barn conversion is wonderful.”

It's spacious, clean, extremely well equipped and very comfortable. It's on a working farm and the animals are visible from your windows. The chickens are always running around and their eggs are available to buy. It's central for lots of places of interest, Shrewsbury, Newport, Much Wenlock, Ironbridge, Whitchurch all within easy reach and Ludlow a bit further afield. The owner is a lovely person and very happy to help. All in all a lovely place to stay.
Rev Clowes August 2018

“The cottage was ideal for our family and was interesting as it is a converted barn on a working farm.”

The owner, Stephanie, is very friendly and helpful. It is in a good location for north Shropshire.
Mrs Maxfield June 2018

“Traveled with our 2yr old daughter to look for a house in Telford.”

This was the perfect place we all loved it especially our daughter who got to wake up to farm animals everyday a walk around the farm, we hated leaving. The property had everything you need for your stay we can't fault any of it? The owner was a lovely lady and made you feel welcome and even brought round fresh eggs. Will stay again even when we move to Telford.

“Great holiday home, very well equipped & in a beautiful, peaceful setting.”

Lots of places to visit near buy.
Mrs Maltby May 2018

“Sutherlands Drift is a superb barn conversion with absolutely everything you could wish for in a holiday home.”

The master bedroom is exceptional and the other two bedrooms offer every comfort. The views from the windows and the doors to the garden are beautiful, allowing us to watch lambs from our bed! The living area is very spacious and yet is still cosy. The kitchen is very well equipped and the whole cottage was immaculately clean when we arrived. The welcome we received from Stephanie was warm and friendly and she gave us lots of useful information. The bird hide on the farm is an added bonus as we love bird spotting. The box of chocolates waiting for us in the kitchen was a lovely surprise. The internet connection was consistently good. Thank you to everyone we met on the farm during our stay. We're already looking forward to a return visit.

“The best holiday we have had in the UK”

Since having kids we've visited many self catering cottages and are often a bit underwhelmed with properties that fail to live up to the descriptions or images. Sutherlands Drift is just the opposite. Its a wonderful spot which the images online don't do justice. The garden is lovely and has views to die for a summers evening. We found the owners extremely helpful and hospitable and the 'cottage' comfortable and warm. We have recommend this to all our friends and hope to return soon.

“Wonderful stay full of peace and tranquility”

We stayed hear in the depths of winter but had a wonderful time. This is a beautiful barn conversion on a working farm. The property is spacious and pleasant with and the owners were extremely welcoming and even took our children to collect eggs and feed the chickens! Though not obvious from the images there are great views from the property over towards the south Shropshire hills and I imagine it is very beautiful and peaceful in the summer. Thanks for a great stay - we will definitely return.

“A dependable jewel in Shropshire countryside”

Just back from another enjoyable stay at Sutherlands Drift. Lots to do in the area including the Ironbridge museums and Severn Valley Railway. Nice walks around the farm and friendly owners at the property. We will be back.
Miss Wright March 2018

“Sutherland's Drift is a lovely property.”

Very comfortable & views from lounge area to The Wrekin are stunning.The owners are very kind & helpful & we would love to go back for a stay again in the future. The only drawback we encountered was the Wifi, where you couldn't have more than 1 person using their iPad at any time. this isn't the owner's fault. Broadband signals can be very hit and miss in rural areas. Shrewsbury & Much Wenlock are not far away & we also visited Attingham which is a National Trust property & had a very interesting day out. Lots to see and do in surrounding areas & would thoroughly recommend property & hope to go back in the future for another holiday. Jo Wright

“The owner, Stephanie, was very kind and showed our children around the farm and even let them help out with the animals - they loved this!”
