Description

This pretty cottage built, in part, with local stone, is located opposite to the owner’s own home in the idyllic south Shropshire village of Harley, surrounded by glorious countryside.

This lovely cottage is perfectly placed for exploring the many delights of Shropshire and is the ideal base for friends and family looking for a relaxing rural retreat.

This immaculately-presented character cottage has everything needed for a relaxing holiday from the well-equipped kitchen to the comfortable sitting room exuding quality and style.

There are two attractive bedrooms with sloping ceilings and exposed beams, separated by a lovely mezzanine style landing with glass balcony overlooking the central hallway.

The ground floor shower room is complemented by a first floor cloakroom.

Outside, there is a patio to the side of the cottage equipped with table and chairs making it an ideal spot to sit back and relax whilst admiring the lovely countryside views.

The charming village of Harley is close to the popular market town of Much Wenlock with its many beautiful period buildings, historic Abbey and plentiful shops, tea rooms and pubs.

Fabulous walks can be found nearby, stretching across Wenlock Edge and on to Church Stretton with breathtaking views across the Long Mynd, home to grazing sheep and local wild ponies.

A day spent exploring the World Heritage Sites around Ironbridge with its iconic iron bridge and its many museums is a must, as is a trip to Ludlow, with its wealth of interesting architecture, castle, 13th century church, racecourse and riverside walks.

A lovely Shropshire base.

This is an excellent cottage and impossible to find fault.

Very friendly owner. Comfortable beds. Very quiet location yet easy access to main A-road for visting in the local area including Bridgnorth, Shrewsbury, RAF Cosford, etc. Property spotlessly clean throughout and kitchen well equipped.

We had a super week staying at Swallows Cottage.

Julia was very welcoming when we arrived. The cottage is very well equipped & everything you possibly need is there. We enjoyed exploring the area, the roads were excellent and lots of lovely places close at hand to visit. We highly recommend staying at this wonderful location.

This is a lovely property, beautifully converted from what was originally an animal barn into a two-bedroomed cottage with all the modern conveniences you could want.

Also mention a patio outside and ample space to park the car, and it was our little bit of heaven for a week. The village of Harley is central to many local attractions; there is even a local bus if you don’t want to drive, The visitors’ book showed us that many people return for second or third (even fourth) visits - no surprise there, and we hope to join their club next year! Our hosts could not have been more welcoming, and all in all it was a most enjoyable week.
