  • "We really enjoyed our stay."

    Garbage pickup was confusing because of the holidays and the posted instructions were from the previous year, but we found the local garbage drop-off point and all was good. Otherwise it was fantastic.

  • "Cottage was lovely."

    Cleanliness was second to none and the fixtures and fittings were great - comfy furniture, plenty of bed clothes, towels, cooking equipment, dishes, heating, shower, soap etc. etc. Also, the home touches (coffee, bottle of Prosecco and a cake!) made for a lovely stay. Great hosts, great place, probably forgetting lots of other lovely things! Thanks. Would recommend :)

  • "Property was immaculate with welcome gifts of bubbles and cake."

    The interior had obviously been professionally interior designed and exuded a very warm and cosy feel. The property is finished to a very high standard, furnishings, bedding etc are top spec. The top floor bedroom is quite something, so much so that we didn't sleep in it, for fear of spoiling it's magnificence. Maybe next time? As we will rebook. I should point out that this property is within walking distance of a town I would happily relocate to! Happy friendly locals and excellent shops and restaurants. We took our small dog - which in itself is great to see properties of this standard accepting our best friends. To recap, a great place to decompress, luxurious, quiet, easy to find and parking (almost) outside the door.

The property

Settled in the heart of the historic market town of Whitchurch, in the desirable county of Shropshire, rests this remarkable Grade II listed cottage, Cobblers Cottage.

Brimming with character and enjoying a peaceful countryside position, there's no better way to explore the delights of Shropshire than with a stay at Cobblers Cottage.

Marvel at the time-honoured charm of this lovely abode as you step inside to begin your staycation; exposed wooden beams decorate the living space, maintaining the rustic character of the property, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance.

Continue through to the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can gather together with your loved ones to share a bottle of wine as the designated chef rustles up a hearty meal.

The nearby utility is equipped with both a washing machine and a tumble dryer to help freshen up your holiday attire during your stay.

Look forward to snuggling up in front of the TV to catch up on your favourite show or carry the conversation outdoors and indulge in an evening tipple amongst the wisteria of the rear garden.

At the end of an action-packed day, head upstairs and enjoy a moment of peace with a blissful soak amongst the bubbles in the bath or make use of the overhead shower to quickly wash away the day.

A double bedroom is set across the way, providing access to an intimate single bedroom, the ideal sleeping quarters for a small family.

Tucked under the wooden beams on the second floor is the master bedroom, fit with a sumptuous super-king-size bed.

Make the most of your central location within the rural town of Whitchurch and take the short stroll to the high street, where you can take the evening off cooking and indulge in a bite to eat at one of the many eateries on offer; indulge in a spot of traditional pub fare at The Black Bear Pub, which has a lovely garden and serves great food, the very popular Italian of Ezios, it is recommended to book in advance, Wild Shropshire, and the Michelin Star restaurant of Docket 33.

The peaceful grounds of the Jubilee Park offer a lovely spot to stretch your legs with a scenic stroll, whilst outdoor adventurers can partake in a spot of wild swimming at Alderford Lake.

Be sure to check out the nearby Cholmondeley Castle and Gardens, featuring lakes, llamas, pygmy goats, and a play area.

Continue onto Bangor-on-Dee, where you can get dressed up to attend the annual races from September through to December.

Benefiting from easy access to the border of Wales, jump in the car and embark on a Welsh adventure with a visit to the nearby towns of Wrexham and Llangollen, or keep to England with a trip to the Roman city of Chester; come face-to-face with animals from across the world at Chester Zoo, or walk in the steps of Roman soldiers along the city walls.

Immerse yourself in the great outdoors with a trip to the Shropshire Hills, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where you can follow the hiking trail to the summit of The Rock or tour the delights of the quaint market towns of Church Stretton and Craven Arms.

Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with a retreat to Cobblers Cottage.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
