The Old Cider Mill

We spent a very good 4 nights at The Old Cider Mill.

It has everything you need to self cater, and just relax. The garden hosts many birds, and we're amazed to see and hear owls just outside of the door. Lots to see and visit around about, and 5 mins from an assortment of shops, M&S, Co op and Aldi. Also very nice pub. Very nice host. Would go again.

A peaceful and relaxing place to stay.

Only the sounds of birdsong. Beautiful views of surrounding countryside and hills. Would recommend this cottage.

A fantastic cottage, very well equipped and very clean.

Lovely location in an area with plenty of interest and great walls. Had a great holiday.

We made a late booking at The Old Cider Mill and found it to be 1st Class in all respects!

We have visited many cottages over the years and this has to be the best! Beautiful country views from the front and back, and apart from light traffic, very peaceful. Nice to meet the owners Ray and Jill who were friendly and helpful. Thank You! Alan and Gill.

It was a lovely cottage, beautifully converted.

The surroundings are lovely, we managed to find several local footpaths. Highly recommended

My 4th visit & will no doubt return.

Super location & property has everything you need. Spotlessly clean. Parking is great too. Nice to have owners on site.

The Old Cider Mill is one of the best cottages we have stayed in.

The kitchen was very well equipped, with an American type fridge freezer, and all the cooking equipment we needed, and exceptionally nice crockery and glassware. The furniture was very nice throughout the cottage, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The cottage was set in a beautiful garden surrounded by fields. We thoroughly enjoyed being visited by many birds including Red Kites, Partridge, Pheasant and WoodPeckers.

A lovely quiet property well presented and immaculately clean with every appliance needed for a comfortable stay.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly return again in the future.

A lovely cottage with everything you need in a home from home.

Very comfortable. Would definitely book again for a Shropshire break.

Excellent accommodation in all respects and in a convenient location close to Ludlow and walks in the hills.

Fabulous cottage, warm and cosy in the winter, comfy beds, great setting.

Excellent cottage well maintained nice welcome from owners would fully recommend .

Access to road network is good .Many nice country towns to visit We would definitely go again .

The Old Cider Mill is a very well appointed and comfortable cottage.

It was warm and welcoming, easy parking and attractive surroundings. It has been converted to a high standard and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

We had a lovely 5-night stay at The Old Cider Mill in Caynham (26th–31st October).

It’s a beautiful, warm and spacious barn conversion, perfect for our family of four. The place was spotlessly clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the beds were comfy. The ensuites off of each room were modern and spotless too! Caynham is a quiet village with gorgeous countryside — ideal for a peaceful break. The hosts were really welcoming and helpful, responding quickly whenever we needed anything. We’d definitely recommend The Old Cider Mill and would love to stay again!

A wonderful stay, great facilities in an interesting property.

Would recommend.

Excellent property well furnished.

Good base for exploring the area. Clean and well appointed cottage - would recommend.

A very comfortable and well appointed home.

Very friendly and helpful owners. Would definitely recommend the property and if we visit this area again we will be looking to book this property.

Very comfortable and well equipped property.

Peaceful location a short drive to Ludlow. The Severn Valley Railway is well worth a visit.

The Old Cider Mill was perfect for us.

The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was ideal for walks - Caynham Camp, Titterstone Clee Hill, Stokesay Castle, Croft Castle and Ludlow, with the Mortimer Forest. The owners were very friendly and helpful.

Lovely hosts.

Clean and exceptionally well equipped cottage. Ideal for exploring the surrounding countryside.

This was a lovely cottage in a very nice location.

There is space to park two cars, although we only had one. We arrived a little early but the property was ready so the owners kindly allowed us to check in. It is very spacious so was very comfortable for four people. The bedrooms were roomy and the beds very comfortable. The two en suite bathrooms were great, but a few spiders were in the corners, where the mop hadn't reached. There's no toiletries except hand soap and one toilet roll. The kitchen was well equipped, but the knives could have been sharper and a big pan would have been useful. The dishwasher didn't clean properly, I noticed there was no rinse aid or salt, so I filled it up. There were dishwasher tabs and cleaning stuff which was great. Would have been handy to have some teabags and sugar. There was a downstairs toilet with a washing machine in it. The TV in the living room was quite small considering the size of the room. Wifi was a bit unreliable but OK. We liked the location as we could go walking from the cottage. A welcome pack with maybe a cake would have been nice.

The cottage was very comfortable an in an excellent location.

We had a lovely few days at The Old Cider Mill.

It was in a lovely location, really easy to find and made a good base for getting around. The facilities were very good and spoilt with an en suite bathroom. We plan to return.

The Old Cider Mill cottage is in a beautiful, quiet location yet near to lots of things to do - Ludlow, National Trust properties etc.

The cottage is spacious and very well appointed with everything you could possibly need. There are beautiful views from all windows. The beds and sofas are lovely and comfortable. The friendly owner met us as we left to make sure we were happy and had had a good stay. I would highly recommend it.

Fabulously comfy cottage, just ideal for a quiet getaways.

Well equipped and good location for Ludlow and surrounding area. Will certainly try to return.

Fantastic place to visit.

Easy to find. Facilities superb! Lovely surroundings. Will definitely return.

Lovely cottage, warm and cosy.

Kitchen very well equipped. Beds were comfortable. Close to all amenities of Ludlow. Park and ride into town was very handy. We only stayed for a weekend but there is so much to do in the area next time we would stay longer.

Absolutely first class will be going again ,quiet location ,lots of places to visit,owners friendly and welcoming, beds very comfortable, everything we needed was provided

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting.

Absolutely everything has been thought of and superbly done inside and we will definitely be looking to return. The owners couldn't have been kinder or more helpful. Thank you.

A lovely comfortable cottage, with everything you need for a holiday break in the pretty Shropshire countryside.

We really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to recommend to others.

Lovely property, clean & with everything you need.

I have stayed previously & hope to visit again.

We really enjoyed our stay here.

The cottage was very comfortable and in a lovely location - really nice views and convenient for coding the local area. We would love to think we will come back again sometime in the future.

Cottage was lovely and clean, and the welcome cider was a nice touch.

The main oven wasn’t working, we informed the owner who was going to get it sorted out. Great location for exploring the beautiful Shropshire countryside. Ludlow is lovely, and a walk on The Long Mynd is a must. Nothing to do with the cottage, but we did notice that footpaths in the area are very poorly maintained, forcing us to walk on the busy road and paths were impassable.

2nd visit here, just as lovely as we remembered.

The cider mill has everything you could possibly want for a holiday.

The Old cider mill is situated in a quiet location with views of the surrounding fields, anybody would struggle to find fault with this lovely cottage and it’s facilities and equipment, if I was pushed to make a recommendation comment, the only thing that I could say is that the mattress on the double bed is on the soft side whereas my mattress at home is quite firm but it did not stop me and my girlfriend from getting a good night sleep We both thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend break at the cottage and certainly would recommend it to friends of ours

Our second visit and just as enjoyable as the first.

Lovely cottage, ideal location and very welcoming hosts.

Peaceful, quiet, warm cottage in lovely location with good walks from the door.

Comfortable beds and sofas. Spotlessly clean and tidy. Looking forward to a return visit next year (have already booked!)

We had a lovely stay in The Old Cider Mill, a delightful property!

Lovely cottage.

every thing we needed.clean warm and well equipped.We will be back.Thank you.

Very comfortable,maybe if possible a better internet connection,but that maybe because of the rural location but otherwise excellent

A lovely cottage, quiet and well furnished, excellent for our long weekend and very well situated.

If you like National Trust properties, there are 2 outstanding ones a short drive away, and Ludow and its castle well worth a visit. Bring a map and you'll see there there are walks nearby.

Really good holiday home, very clean extremely comfortable.

All in all a nice relaxing place to stay

The Old Cider Mill is an absolute gem and feels like home from home.

It is very spacious, comfortable and has everything you need for your stay including a very large freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. It is so peaceful too which means you sleep well as you don’t hear lots of traffic. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay at the old cider Mill, it has been renovated to a very high standard, lovely beams, quality fittings etc.

It was well equipped for our stay. The views both front and back are excellent, and the weather was good enough to take advantage of the seating areas. It is in a lovely village, positioned next to the owners house. Ideally placed to visit the surrounding towns, national trust houses and English heritage. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, the bottles of cider were a very nice touch. The homemade jams, chutneys and pickles paid for with a honesty box were delicious, irresistible and excellent value. All in all we had a great stay and would fully recommend.

The Old Cider Mill has been refurbished to a high standard the sofas are very comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and the en-suite shower in the main bedroom is good, albeit the doorway into it is a little low.

The house is very remote, there are no footpaths outside it, and Caynham village has no amenities at all, nor is there a bus service, so you need a car, and there is room to park it off road. The wi-fi is hopeless, ranging between slow and non existent. The house is also very dark inside, and very warm too. The table and chairs out the back are lovely, as is the view, but the BBQ has seen better days, and there are too many unwelcome visits from the owners dogs, which was massively disappointing. When outside enjoying the view the ambience is spoilt by the road that runs through the village, which is surprisingly busy, and a little too noisy. In summary, this is a decent place to stay in terms of cleanliness and comfort, but not a memorable one.

A lovely cottage, characterful but with modern convenience, in a good location close to Ludlow.

A quiet rural setting easily accessed through pleasant country lanes. Lovely gardens and colourful planters. Easy access to Ludlow by road or Caynham Park & Ride ((half-hourly). Lots of things to do locally, including castles and foodie destinations (Ludlow provides both) . Steam train enthusiasts will enjoy both the Welshpool/Llanfair light railway and the Severn Valley Railway from Bewdley or Kidderminster. Highly recommended and we hope to make a return visit.

We had everything we needed and there was a great view from the cottage.

The cider mill was an exceptional property in a Beautiful setting We had a wonderful holiday and the owners were very friendly and helpful Our gift of a bottle of cider each was a pleasant surprise We can certainly recommend the property and would return 5 star

Lovely property in a beautiful situation.

Clean and comfortable

This was a fabulous cottage.

For me the bed was a little soft but that's just a personal preference. The cottage has everything you need for your stay. It's in a beautiful setting and great for visiting places. The hosts were very pleasant and welcoming and we would definitely stay there again next time we visit Shropshire.

Very welcoming, friendly and helpful hosts.

Very well equipped. Spacious, warm and comfortable We really enjoyed our stay

The Old Cider Mill is a superb cottage in a very convenient location for Ludlow and the nearby sights.

We found it in a pristine state of decoration and cleanliness and it was very well equipped. Despite the freezing temperatures outside it was very cosy and warm inside. An excellent and spacious place to stay.

Fabulous property, super clean and had great facilities.

Property had everything you could need, fully stocked with loads of crockery, cutlery, pans and utensils. Washing machine and dishwasher very efficient and property was so warm that our walking clothes dried overnight. Great location to visit local attractions. The owner came to introduce herself and was very friendly. We loved our stay and would definitely return.

Cottage was lovely and clean has everything you need and central to places of interest

Lovely comfy cottage.

In great excellent spot to explore the surrounding area

Very comfortable clean property.

Enjoyed our stay. It had everything we needed in a good location for exploring Shropshire.

The Old Cider Mill was even better than we were expecting, it was beautiful and clean, the beds were very comfortable and the owners were lovely and helpful.

Where it was situated was ideal for going into Ludlow and surrounding areas. We highly recommend this cottage to other holiday makers.

Excellent cottage, happy with our stay, the owners were lovely and friendly.

Only thing which would help is a sign at the bottom drive to let you know its The Old Cider Milll, as we struggled to find it in the dark and the local taxi driver struggled in the day light to find us.

We have used holiday cottages every year for 22 years, The Old Cider Mill is in our top three, a beautiful well equipped cottage in a lovely location.

Extremely convenient for Ludlow park and ride, much easier than trying to park in the very busy town, the Saturday market is worth a visit. Within easy drive to Shropshires attractions and beauty spots.

Friendly owners, and cows, well appointed accommodation, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A lovely cottage that was clean and relatively comfortable (the beds were a bit soft for us and we found the settees a bit uncomfortable - but you can’t please everybody!

) We saw lots of wildlife around the cottage, which was great. The owners said hello and to get in touch if we needed anything (which we didn’t) then left us to it (which is how we like it). A great place to base ourselves to explore Shropshire and the surrounding counties, even venturing into Wales to Hay on Wye for books!

Lovely property.

Very comfortable and relaxing. Exceptionally well equipped Friendly owners. Very much enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

A lovely relaxing break in a very comfortable, well equipped cottage.

Peaceful outdoor spaces to enjoy and we loved watching the bats at night and listening to the owls hooting. We appreciated the bottles of cider that were left by the friendly owners.

We throughly enjoyed ourselves at The Cider Mill cottage and appreciated the two bottles of Cider left by the owner’s.

We couldn’t fault anything the cottage was very clean. Loved the medieval town of Ludlow which the cottage was based just outside. Lots to do. One of the best cottages we have stayed at.

Really spot on

We had a lovely relaxing holiday in a beautiful setting.

The property was delightful and we especially loved to see the cows, hear the owls and watch the pheasants. The property is ideally located for visiting Ludlow and the surrounding area -- wish we could have stayed longer.

Lovely comfortable and well equipped cottage we had a great time dispite the stormy weather .

The only criticism was a very slow internet connection probably due to the storms.

Warm and comfortable cottage, well-equipped, lovely location.

Wow this was our first time using Sykes and we are really impressed with the service but more so with the standard of accommodation offered My wife.

Mother in law and I chose to have a Christmas away this year and after this experience we will do it again the old cider mill is a home from home it was clean well presented and comfortable and we found it so easy to relax we enjoyed long sleeps on the lovely mattresses food as and when we wanted it due to the self catering aspect of our stay the owners were just next door and we’re lovely they left us too it but where there should we need them all in all we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend the old cider mill to all We would like to thank the owners for allowing us to enjoy their property Mark Andrea and Dolores

Well equipped, comfortable cottage situated within easy reach of Ludlow.

Owners easily accessible if needed and some good local walks for anyone enjoying walking.

Beautiful spacious cottage, clean and tidy.

Some local cider was lets as a welcome gift. The only thing that let's it down is that there were no basic supplies like tea coffee milk etc provided. Would stay again 100%

Lovely property, comfortable and well located.

Very warm which was very important to us for a winter break. Highly recommended.

This is the 2nd time we have rented this cottage which goes to show how we think it is a good place to stay in.

It is in a great location for visiting the midlands and Wales. The cottage is lovely and the facilities are great. The owners couldn't have been more helpful or friendly.

This is our 3rd visit to the Old Cider Mill.

We love this location as it is so peaceful. The cottage has a very well equipped kitchen and is spacious.

We had a fantastic week.

The cottage was spotless and packed full of everything we needed for a perfect break. Thank you!

Such a comfortable cottage in a lovely setting.

We always enjoy our holidays here.

We enjoyed a very peaceful and relaxing break at the Old Cider Mill.

Providing spacious and well appointed accommodation, it also has the benefit of off road parking. Located near Ludlow the Old Cider Mill provides a great base for exploring this beautiful part of Britain.

The Old Cider Mill is set in a beautiful and peaceful location.

This cottage has a very well equipped kitchen and the lounge has 2 reclining sofas which I loved. This is our 2nd visit to this cottage and we plan to return again next year. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

The property was beautifully renovated and was equipped to the highest standard.

The owners were extremely helpful and the location both peaceful and full of historical interest in equal measure.

Fantastic accommodation in a beautiful location

Loved this cottage, lovely location and ideal for exploring Shropshire.

Will definitely be returning.

The cottage was excellent in all aspects, the owners were very welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Its' location was ideal with lovely views of the surrounding countryside and with local walks from the cottage.

The cottage was very well equipped.

Very clean and comfortable. There were 2 outside sitting areas with table and chairs. The owners who live next door were friendly and helpful. The position of the cottage was quiet, but very handy for Ludlow and Hereford, as well as National Trust and English Heritage properties.

This cottage is in an ideal location to explore several National Trust properties nearby and has lovely countryside views.

Even though the owners are next door and happy to help if needed, you have total privacy. We stayed at the beginning of March and the cottage kept lovely and warm and cosy, despite the frosty mornings! We would definitely recommend.

The Cider Mill is a lovely place to stay.

Well equipped and very clean.

A very lovely well equipped cottage, and yes we would return.

One of the best equipped places we’ve ever stayed at

It was a fabulous few days.

Accommodation and area outstanding.

Really lovely cottage.

Just the right mix of in the country but also close enough to a town. The cottage is clean, modern and well equipped. The owners are on hand if you need them but not at all invasive! Would definitely book again.

We had a lovely stay at the Old Cider Mill, and were fortunate to have wonderful weather throughout our visit.

The cottage has been beautifully renovated, was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. It is also in a very convenient location ( - although we were slightly surprised by the traffic noise when we were in the garden). I would be happy to recommend it to friends.

Beautiful old cider mill in a lovely location.

All home comforts. Plenty to do and see in the area.

A very lovely home, which has been fitted-out with true generosity of spirit.

Lovely gardens to enjoy and so much to see in the area, plus stupendous walking country.

The Cider Mill was lovely and peaceful in a quiet location.

It had everything we needed and equipped to a high standard. Everything was clean and fresh. Plenty of room for the four of us. Nice to have two ensuites. . Couldn't have asked for anything better.

The owner is very friendly.

It’s a great location to explore from

Convenience for travel to local tourist destinations was excellent.

The cottage was exceptional.

Internally it had the appearance of brand New. Very Clean, spotless furnishings, very well stocked with appliances, cooking utensils and crockery, all in tip top condition. Very comfortable and cosy.

The Old Cider Mill is an amazing building which has been restored to the highest level and so well equipped with everything that you could possibly need for a comfortable stay.

The surrounding area is beautiful and has lots of places to visit including Ironbridge and the International Centre for Birds of Prey at Newent.

Myself and my husband book this fabulous holiday cottage every year for our parents and Aunty.

They always have a wonderful time. This year was even more special as our mom is sadly suffering from cancer and it was just the perfect break she needed. They were also very blessed with the amazing weather we had back in February. Thank you.

Everything to a really high standard, well equipped and fabulously quiet location within easy driving distance of Ludlow.

Did not find the double bed as comfortable as our own but really appreciated the wonderful fire in the living area and overall warmth and ambiance of The Cider Barn.

The old cider mill was a lovely cottage to stay at.

Very peaceful, cosy and warm. It was very clean and well equipped with everything you really needed.

The Cottage was perfect for our requirements over the Christmas period.

The owners had very thoughtfully put up a Christmas tree and left us a bottle of Prosecco & mince pies - very welcoming when we arrived. The Cottage was extremely well finished and clean and extremely well provided for and suited us in terms of location. We would have no hesitation in booking again or recommending to friends.

A very good cottage that made for an enjoyable and relaxing holiday.

This cottage is set in a lovely location with very dark skies for those who like stargazing.

It is a very spacious cottage with a very well equipped kitchen where the owners have thought of everything that you need. The 2 bedrooms upstairs are a good size. The only fault we could find is that we felt that the quilt needed to be larger for the double bed as it kept ending up with one of us having no cover at various times during the night.

A wonderfully relaxing, comfortable cottage and exceptionally well equipped.

We hope to return in the not too distant future.

It was very comfortable and well furnished to a high standard.

Our biggest problem was with the cooking facilities It was a high class cooker I think and we worked out how to work the oven but the halogen hob was really complicated and the owner although extremely helpful with every thing else could not help with this. We did eventually find some written instructions but still had difficulties and we are both used to cooking Other wise it was excellent

Owners have invested in quality fixtures, fittings and furniture.

The kitchen is particularly well equipped, especially as this is a very foodie part of the country. Cannot rate this property highly enough. Excellent find.

A very well equipped and comfortable cottage.

An idea, base for exploring south Shropshire.

The cider mill was a very lovely cottage and very nice owners and lots of space, the only thing i would have liked to have had was a pint of milk so we could have had a cup of tea before going to get our groceries also some new firmer mattresses would be a welcome.

The area was excellent for anyone interested in History or walking.

So much better than expected. Very good cottage, excellent owners who could not have done more.

The holiday cottage was beautiful and spotlessly clean.

It was furnished to a very high standard and everything you would have at home was there; we could have happily moved in for good! It was located next to the owners house and they were welcoming and friendly and even offered to even take us into town one evening, so kind and thoughtful. Two bottles of cider on the table on arrival were very welcomed and a reminder that this had once been the cider press. The location was so peaceful, no noise just birdsong and the cows on the hill mooing. From here it was easy to get to the rest of Shropshire with Ludlow 4 miles away along with two main supermarkets and petrol station, lots of independent pubs and restaurants. We would definitely go back, perhaps in the autumn to do some more of the many beautiful walks, some from the cottage doorstep. We had glorious weather which was not ideal for big walks but perfect for enjoying the views from the cottage with a glass of wine in the evening, after a long day exploring all the many beautiful towns and sites.

Extremely comfortable stay, couldn’t have been better, will return.

Really lovely property, clean, comfortable, spacious and well furnished.

Plenty of parking space, and friendly helpful owners next door. We loved this property!

The location is lovely and the house is very well equipped.

We had a very comfortable stay and a most relaxing break.

Clean, comfortable, well equipped cottage.

Conveniently situated for Ludlow and the surrounding area, with lots of interesting places to visit.

We book The Old Cider Mill each year for our parents.

They love the cottage and always have a very enjoyable stay. Thank you.

We've stayed in many different holiday cottages, but the Old Cider Mill is one we keep coming back to.

Everything is just right. Comfortable, sweet little views from all windows, great location to explore Shropshire , Worcestershire and Herefordshire.

The Old Cider Mill is exceptionally well equipped and presented, immaculate and yet cosy and welcoming.

It was an excellent base for us to explore the lovely countryside around.

Very well equipped cottage next to farmhouse.

Owners were very friendly and helpful. Easy access and parking. Great location for visiting attractions. A few good pubs with great evening meals.

Fabulous location- peace and quiet and great wildlife and only ten minutes from town - dark sky's great for stargazing!

Had a great holiday, cottage was beautiful much better than we expected very well equipped, very clean and owner was very friendly.

Ludlow was also lovely with good shops and gorgeous historic buildings.

Lovely Cottage with all you need for a relaxing stay.

A lovely cottage, in a great location.

It is a credit to the owner.

Lovely cottage, owner very helpfull.

Will use again when next in the area.

This cottage is in a great location for visiting the English/Welsh border area.

Great cottage, well equipped, very clean and comfortable.

Great base for the sorrounding area.

Great place to stay, very smart and very clean. The bottles of cider were a nice touch.

The cottage and its owners were lovely.

Quiet, great location. Spotlessly clean. Good facilities. A lovely break.

The Old Cider Mill had been transformed into a high quality holiday cottage and equipped with everything you could wish for.

The hosts were friendly and helpful and the area beautiful, full of black and white period houses. Ludlow, with its castle, many places to eat local food, and various markets was worth several visits, but the nearby towns and villages all had special places of interest. The scenery, especially over the Clee Hills, was panoramic and we would recommend this area to anyone.

One of the be best cottages we have had.

It was extremely well equipped and very very comfortable with high quality furniture ideally placed to explore the area. We would certainly book this cottage again.
