• "A beautiful, picturesque getaway!"

  The cottage had a homely touch and you can tell a lot of thought has been put into it. The kitchen had everything we need to cook a full meal and we loved having a hot tub to relax in at the end of the day. Sitting on the little balcony on a clear night watching all the stars was so peaceful. Thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back next year!

• "Absolutely amazing."

  It’s so much more lovely than the pics! Came home and booked next door (Meadow Barn) the same day for next month. Can’t wait to go back! Had such a relaxing stay, had everything we needed and Linda was lovely.

  Nice welcoming gifts much appreciated. Garden was a real sun trap and great to come back to a hot tub after long walks. Great spot to explore the local area.

  We really loved our stay. The views from the balcony are fantastic and very restful. The patio is a suntrap and the hot tub just the icing on the cake.

• "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hayloft!"

  ! The property was beautifully maintained...spotlessly clean and well appointed. It was exactly what we were seeking. Beautifully quiet and peaceful. Loved waking up to nothing but bird song and sheep bleating in the fields next door. I know the landlord can't take credit for the weather, but it was gloriously sunny (didn't see a drop of rain) our entire visit and we came back to Canada with suntans! The hot tub was a welcome extra, and a perfect way to relax after a long day of hiking and sightseeing. The star gazing was beautiful. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer! Thanks, Margaret and David

• "A wonderful barn conversion set within wonderful views overlooking endless fields of beaming nature."

  The Hayloft itself was immaculately presented and perfect for a weekends stay. After a few miles walking over the Long Mynd, only 20mins away, the hot tub was a warm welcome to relax for the evening before retiring to the cosy barn. I’d definitely recommend the Hayloft to anyone and I’m wishing to return for sure one day.

• "The Hayloft was a really lovely place to stay for a short break."

  We had all the essentials needed to make it home from home. There were a few very small details I think would make it an even better stay. The property could do with a radio or music system of some sort, it would of been nice to have some hooks in the bathroom for hanging either the towels or robes, I know there were two on the back of the bedroom door but could do with some in the bathroom. The mattress was very springy, one person moved in the bed and you both moved, for me the mattress could be a little firmer and maybe memory foam, but again this is a personal preference. Overall the Hayloft was a lovely little place to stay, the hot tub was perfect and the backdrop to the garden was beautiful.

  So glad we found this last minute. The Juliet balcony was lovely to sit on all wrapped up whilst having a drink watching the sun go down. The hot tub was a bonus - best one we have been in. (You're left dressing gowns for the hot tub too which is great for these winter months) The hayloft is well equipped however as stated it is a self catering cottage like most are so expect to have to bring stuff such as coffee, sugar, foil, cooking oil etc. Linda let us know the day before depature that the next guests were arriving the day after so we did not have to rush to leave which was nice of her. She really is a fab host! Overall we had the most amazing stay and will definitely be back! If you're looking for somewhere to eat try razas Indian take away we loved it! And the kangaroo inn pub just 28 minute walk away very cosy. Craven arms town is a 6minute drive. Plenty of walks to do without having a car / plenty of walks to do with a car.

  Bed and sofas were very comfy, shower was good, kitchen near enough had what you needed. Hot tub was lovely, views are amazing and it’s very quiet and peaceful. Only criticisms I have are there were a few cobwebs and bugs in corners of rooms and stairs when we arrived, no hand soap provided in the bathroom or kitchen (which I’ve never seen before) and no pepper or oil provided for cooking. Apart from these minor setbacks, its a great place to stay!

• "Had a lovely break, however, the hot tub facility was fire powered and was an inconvenience to heat up (took 3 hours)."

  This was a real shame and put a dampener on the holiday as we didn’t get to use it once for this reason, especially as I paid that extra amount for the hot tub usage. If it was stated more clear in the description then I would’ve chose another holiday home! Secondly, there was not enough fire wood available to use the hot tub, this was a real disappointment as we intended to use it later on in the evening, when we eventually tried to heat it up, there was not enough wood and it was too late at that point to notify our hosts as we didn’t want to disturb them. This made it more frustrating as we never got to use it the other nights and eventually when we tried to on our last night, there was not enough wood provided :/ Overall the place was nice and id recommend it for a relaxing break away, but the hot tub was a real shame.

• "Cottage excellent, nicely furnished."

  comfortable, warm, everything we could wish for - but the addition of a radio would be great. I know you can get radio reception on the TV but it's nice to have a radio in the kitchen too! Anyway, the lack of a radio made only a small difference to the overall enjoyment we experienced.

• "The location shown on the Sykes map is not correct."

  On Google maps the property is shown as Shropshire Glamping. The directions assume you are coming from Craven Arms. We were arriving from the opposite direction and could not find the property. A call to the owner sorted it but it would benefit from an update. The location was ideal for us to explore Shropshire being central to a range of National Trust properties and superb countryside. The Hayloft was lovely with goldfinches, red kites, hares and rabbits all around. Cannot think of anything that could be improved on for a couple.

• "The building work going on in the connected barn was absolutely no problem whatever."

  The builder ( only one man incidently ) came over and apologised just in case but on the days that he was around it was only from 9am until 4pm - mostly whilst we were out. The service from the owner was exceptional, with a cake and wine to greet us opon arrival.

• "The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed from a home away from home."

  The owner was lovely and met us on arrival to show us round and discuss when we would like the hot tub set up. The location is peaceful and relaxing and watching the sheep in the field next to be cottage was lovely. A short drive away is Ludlow which was a lovely town to wander, explore the castle and have afternoon tea. Church Stretton has some lovely walks and Shrewsbury was lovely to visit on our way home. A lovely long weekend had and would recommend for anyone to stay and use Hayloft as there base for the area.

• "This cottage has been beautifully converted from a Barn and lacks for nothing."

  Work is in hand to complete the outside sitting area with fence and planting. The owners, Linda and Charlie, were excellent hosts and welcomed us with wine, a homemade cake and flowers from the garden. The location is idyllic with a wonderful dawn chorus and plenty of sheep to keep the birds company. The two resident ducks on the duckpond were fun to watch as they strutted around together. It was a lovely area and the nearest small town, Craven Arms, had a wonderful independent Supermarket called Tuffins, which sold just about everything under the sun!

• "Perfect holiday - everything was as described."

  A new renovation that was beautifully done. Decoration was done very well - we wanted for nothing. We spent a very relaxing week although the weather was poor for the whole week we didn't seem to mind. Kitchen well equipped - lovely welcome by the host Linda and a homemade cake and wine for our arrival. We were left alone to our own devices which suited us but knowing that we could always call upon her if needed. Shower was lovely - the whole cottage was very cosy. Lots of plans for further renovations so we wish them all the very best as I'm sure they will reap the benefits once people pass on their recommendations.
