The Barn

What a lovely place, Pete is a real gentleman, provided two fans for us, due to the weather being so hot.

The only thing I would say, is beware of the wooden bed! The bottom edge jumped out at my knee twice! Quite a sharp edge to be wary of! The barn had everything you could possibly need.The garden perfectly safe for my little dog to run around. Please don’t let the hedge at the bottom of the garden grow much higher, or you’ll loose the view from the garden. Also would like to know if the solar panels serve the property. Would have liked to see the story and photos of the conversion. Hope to return sometime as it’s my home county, and it can’t be beaten! Thanks Beryl, Val and Bella

4th - 11th July 2026 We had a lovely week staying in The Barn, my daughter and partner were staying in The Cow'ouse which is adjoining.

The Barn was very spacious and comfortable and there was everything we needed. You could see for miles with the odd farm dotted about. It was so peaceful. The weather that week was really which meant that we didn't go out often or travel far because we have dogs, but that didn't matter, it was just great spending time together and relaxing. The owners were very accommodating and even though Pete was busy getting the harvest in he would have been only to happy to help. Thank you. Wendy, Keith and Yogi Nelson

Saucepans need replacing otherwise it was great

A clean, attractive and well equipped property.

We particularly liked the position of 'The Barn' for it was convenient for many of the local attractions.

Unfortunately due to a family matter we only stayed at the barn for 9 hours, got a phone call to get home as soon as possible.

The barn is one of the most comfortable places we’ve been to, our dog Belle settled as soon as we arrived loved the French doors from lounge to garden she was constantly in and out. The barn has everything you need for a perfect stay and is so peaceful would I recommend definitely A**********

Fabulous property in countryside location.

We will be returning which should say it all! However to explain its like home from home, fully equipped property, comfortable beds, great showers and lovely comfortable lounge - adequate parking and host (Pete and his mum) were very friendly

Absolutely lovely property, we had a lovely stay here and everything was very clean and perfect for our stay.

We had everything that we needed, Peter was very helpful and was there if there was anything we required. Thank yo

Lovely Accommodation, very clean and everything you need.

Second time we stayed at this lovely barn conversion ,well equipped lovey and warm ,in a beautiful part of the country ,just the right distance from busy Shrewsbury ,,the owner ,Pete couldn't help us enough ,lovely people well reccomended hope to come again next year

An absolute stunning cottage, home from home, Pete the owner was so friendly.

Will definitely be returning

This is true gem of a find.

We had a lovely stay , very comfortable, peaceful and nice big garden for our dog to run round. Couldn't ask for anymore. Hopefully will be back soon . Loved the sheep and big piggy

A very quiet and beautiful location, the house us well maintained and the owners are friendly.

This is one of the best we have visited and thoroughly recommend it to anyone thinking of the area.

This is a very clean and comfortable barn conversion, in a lovely area.

It is very quiet and relaxing. The barn has been converted to a very high standard and I would definitely recommend it

An excellent holiday cottage, very comfortable, cosy, everything you need.

Lovely countryside location. Very clean. Friendly owner who checked all was ok. Would definitely recommend it. Had a wonderful holiday.

The best ive stayed in.

..already booked another 5 days for september. Absolutely top class accommodation

A very comfortable and clean property in a very peaceful location.

The owners were very attentive without being intrusive. This was my first visit to the property, but it won’t be my last!

The Barn is an amazing place to stay very comfortable and clean .

The lawned garden was secure for our doggie to run around on. Pete the owner welcomed us and checked to see if everything was ok. The barn is in a great position to visit other places in the surrounding area. Would highly recommend this property and also the Cow’ouse next door as we visited that one last year. Would definitely revisit in the future.

Had an enjoyable and relaxing 3 nights at the barn.

Everything was ideal and very warm. Great company with our next door neighbours - 3 pigs. Would recommend this to anyone who wants to stay in Shropshire as it was ideal for a base in order to travel around and explore the county.

The property was immaculate and very well cared for.

The hosts were welcoming and helpful. Every need was catered for and the dog friendly garden was the only true dog friendly area we have encountered. The cottage is ideally placed to discover all the area has to offer especially the many potteries. Local convenience store and fish and chip shop very useful. The peaceful and relaxing location would delight most people.

Excellent stay , the property was imacculate well equipped ,Pete was so helpful when our car broke down ,he held the fort with the car keys while we drove home in a hire car .

Nothing was too much for him and his mum .we hope to visit again next year with functional car

Our second visit to the barn and we will return again.

Pete and the family make sure evrything about the property is first class and a real home from home.

Instantly felt at home here.

Everything we needed and more. Very light and spacious. Garden was an excellent size, really close to Shrewsbury and shopping areas. Really good base to explore the area. Lovely and warm. Would recommend to anyone.

The Barn is a great place to stay and an excellent base to visit nearby places of interest.

We particularly loved Shrewsbury which is close by. The Barn was very clean, spacious and warm and had everything we needed. We did find the sofas & chair seating a little uncomfortable but that could just be personal preference. The beds were really comfortable and both bedrooms had great showers with plenty of hot water. The Barn could benefit with a small sound system to play music through. The enclosed well laid out garden was perfect for our dog to run around and for us to sit out. We ate our at the nearby Fox and Hound and the Mytton and Mermaid opposite Attingham Park. Both very good food and service. I would definitely recommend The Barn.

We had a very comfortable relaxing break and were really sorry to leave.

We will be back!

I stay in at least three different cottages a year and this is a great one.

It’s got all the small things you need that are so often missing (A bread knife! A dressing gown hook! A dishwasher tablet for each night of the stay!). No tacky knick-knacks cluttering up the place and getting in your way. Gorgeous views from all three sides, spacious, quiet and secluded.

We were very pleased with the barn.

It is an amazing and gorgeous place. Cannot find any fault with this place. Spotlessly clean upon arrival and so well set up with everything you need. The garden is lovely and secure if you have a dog and the view is just wonderful, whether you are sitting outside or in. The bed was so comfortable, lovely shower and the towels were fluffy and smelt gorgeous. The kitchen has everything you need, even washing up liquid, cloths and teatowels are provided. The sofas in the living room are very cosy and comfortable. Set down a quiet country lane it is so peaceful with just the birds singing, we had a morning visit everyday from a little robin. Well situated to explore and visit lots of different towns around the area. All in all this is perfect for a relaxing break.

Have come home very relaxed after a wonderful stay in this very clean and comfortable cottage.

Great garden for relaxing in and ideal for dogs. The location is spot on for exploring the beautiful surroundings and we were made to feel very welcome. Would not hesitate to book again. Fantastic! x

Wow!

Everything about this cottage was perfect. Beautiful surroundings, friendly owners who couldn’t be more accommodating. The cottage was absolutely stunning, it had everything you could need & was so cosy. The cleanliness was top notch. Everything was sparkling clean. It made our holiday perfect. Thank you for everything x

A lovely well maintained property.

Set in beautiful surroundings. We had a great time relaxing and dog walking. Would highly recommend staying here.

The Barn is a very comfortable well equipped property in peaceful surroundings , thoroughly enjoyed our stay .

The Owners Pete and Pam were very welcoming and informative. Thank you.

Lovely newly renovated barn on farmland.

Peaceful and an ideal stopover when visiting family in nearby Shrewsbury.

The Barn is a beautiful renovation with plenty of space for 2 couples.

The place was very clean and fittings were modern and very swish. The south facing garden had the sun from dawn to dusk a real sun trap (we were very lucky with the weather). About 10 minutes drive from the village of Shawbury, which had a couple of shops and takeaways. Access to many beautiful areas ranging from open moors to woodland walks and National Trust venues. The owner was very pleasant and helpful and we had a fantastic time. Thank You

The property is very comfortable and well equipped.

It’s situated down a track off a quiet country lane and well positioned to visit towns and attractions in Shropshire. The owner was available if we needed assistance and came to visit towards the end of the week. There is a nice seating area in the garden which we took full advantage of having visited during a heatwave. We had a lovely holiday and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the property to others.

Very comfortable cottage and enjoyed the peacefulness.

This holiday cottage is beautifully presented.

It is in a very quiet spot with views of open fields. The owner is friendly and helpful and he called to make sure everything was OK. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to other holidaymakers.

We loved the property and the location.

Being newly renovated everything was like new and the decoration was excellent. It would have been handy to have a welcome pack on arrival that included more than a pint of milk and 3 teabags however we do take onboard that the property listing didn’t mention a welcome pack.

A lovely cottage with everything we needed.

It was a beautiful and quiet spot surrounded by fields and wildlife. We found some excellent walks and things to do within a short drive. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We would happily go again and definitely recommend it. The cottage was spotless and well maintained. A great holiday.

The property was absolutely amazing, one of the best properties we have stayed in and the location is fantastic!

We enjoyed the peace and serenity of the property and its location. The whole property was well thought out and super comfortable. It was lovely that Pete popped over to check that everything was okay and I was blown away to hear that this gorgeous accommodation was once a cowshed! We would love to come back again as there is so much more to explore in Shropshire and the ideal location makes it easy to access some really beautiful places!

Fabulous cottage very well laid out with everything you needed.

Had to turn heating off as we were too warm. Owner was very helpful and accommodating.

We had a lovely stay at The Barn over New Year.

The property was superb and very well equipped, and ideal for a relaxing stay. It was very clean, warm and comfortable. We took a pleasant walk to the Fox and Hounds one afternoon which is also highly recommended. The owner Pete is very friendly and helpful and provided very good directions to the property. We would happily recommend and return.

Sykes …why only 4 ticks , we have stayed at many of your cottages and The Barn far exceeds those you have given 5 ticks .

Why is the price point so low , quality delivered by this conversion with it’s high end fittings and furnishings is simply too low . Owner … it was actually a privilege to experience the quality and luxury you provide . Whoever was your builder deserves a medal as the finish and attention to detail goes far beyond the normal in fact closer to a 5 star hotel . Honestly think Sykes need to review with you the price point as your property and its high end furnishings should command a premium . Future bookings …you will be amazed by this cottage , easily accessible to Shrewsbury yet within minutes walk from front door you can walk endless miles on country lanes. The luxury of the bedding is as good as if not better than any 5/6 star hotel we have stayed in …even lavender pouches in duvet cover . Superb enclosed garden , clever use of internal space , great wi-fi , superb underfloor heating and state of the art tv

Lovely property.

The underfloor heating is great and very comfortable.

The direction instructions texted by the owner were very good, these need to be used instead of what is sent out via email.

The Barn was a lovely clean and warm residence and it’s siting was quiet, though within easy access of the A53, with beautiful views.

We had a truly relaxing holiday break and will return in 2023.
