  • "What an absolute gem of a find!"

    The cottage is fantastic, well appointed, clean, comfortable and a delight to be in. It is so so quiet (the very occasional moo of a cow not withstanding!), that it’s a surprise when a car goes by! It’s also incredibly dark at night, and a good nights sleep is guaranteed!! Which is great for star gazing too, especially with the fire pit going to keep the late night chills at bay! The owners are local, and are on hand should you need anything, and were absolutely fantastic. The garden and view are delightful, and importantly for us, was secure for dogs! We really hope to return in the future.

    Thank you so much for your review Scott. We were so sorry that you had to cut your stay short. We hope you might be able to get back soon and explore more. Property Owner

  • "We absolutely loved our time at pear tree cottage."

    My friend and I took our young sons and they enjoyed running around the secure garden and had an amazing time. The area is very secluded and peaceful, with amazing views, and we loved sitting on the patio watching the sun on the hills. A big draw for us was the accessibility, as Ione of our party is a wheelchair user, and we found the property spacious and easy to navigate. The only downside was that we weren't able to book it for longer!

    Rachel, thank you so much for your kind review. It was lovely to see how much your children seemed to enjoy themselves, please do come for longer next time, shropshire has so much to explore. Property Owner

  • "We had an amazingly peaceful stay at Pear Cottage."

    The hosts were very attentive and everything had been catered for. The property was ideally located with stunning views that we couldn't take our eyes off. Well situated for local walks, day trips to local towns and National Trust Sites. I didn't want to leave and I'd absolutely recommend this place. Would love to stay again if the opportunity arises. Thank you Tim and Amanda

    Thank you Nathan, you were great guests and we hope you might come back one day. Tim and Amanda Property Owner

  • "We cannot recommend this place highly enough."

    So glad we found it. Great location for visiting many Shropshire towns and villages. Lovely bungalow in the most gorgeous location with superb views. Well equipped property, couldn’t ask for more. Very homely, Tim and Amanda have done a wonderful job making this somewhere you feel very comfortable staying. Superb welcome pack, containing local produce which was very much appreciated. And treats for our doggies too. Which they loved. Great enclosed garden for our dogs, which was an absolute must for us. We met Tim and Amanda and they were lovely. They live nearby and Tim brought us over a fan to help cope with the heat. We will definitely be returning soon. A big yes from us for this property.

    Thank you both for your kind words. It was a pleasure having you at Pear Tree Cottage, you even watered the plants and our new hedge. Come back anytime! Property Owner

  • "If you are lucky enough to book this cottage you will not be disappointed."

    The location is excellent for total relaxation, bird watching ( red kites and house martins flying overhead ). The bungalow is very well equipped and a good nights sleep guaranteed. Tim & Amanda are most welcoming hosts leaving us a wonderful welcome pack. Pear tree cottage is well placed for visits to Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Much Wenlock and many other places. We are sure all other visitors will enjoy their stay here. John

    John, thank you. As our first guests, you were very kind, and a pleasure to have you staying at Pear Tree. Tim and Mandi Property Owner

Pear Tree Cottage is a charming countryside bungalow nestled in the quiet hamlet of Church Pulverbatch, just a short drive from the local village of Dorrington, and with sweeping views of the Shropshire Hills.

Surrounded by rolling fields and timeless rural beauty, it offers a tranquil escape for families and friends alike.

Set along a peaceful village lane with ample off-road parking on a shared driveway, this welcoming retreat also invites two well-behaved dogs to join the adventure.

Step inside to discover a thoughtfully designed, single-storey haven.

At its heart lies a characterful farm-style kitchen/diner, complete with a traditional AGA cooker (available in winter), alongside an electric oven and hob for year-round use.

It’s the perfect space to prepare hearty meals and gather around the table for relaxed, sociable dining.

A separate utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer adds convenience, while a handy pantry provides extra storage, an ideal place to tuck away your walking boots after a day on the trails.

The sitting room is a true highlight.

Whether you’re enjoying a film on the Smart TV or gazing out through the large picture window, you’ll be treated to a stunning, ever-changing view of the surrounding countryside.

A woodburning stove adds a toasty touch, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

The cottage features three well-presented bedrooms: a flexible super-king-size (which can be converted to a twin), a spacious king-size with a convenient en-suite walk-in shower room, and a snug small double.

A family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower serves the remaining bedrooms.

From most rooms, you can enjoy views of open fields and distant hills, bringing the outdoors in.

Step outside into the expansive rear garden – an idyllic space for any occasion.

The patio, complete with table and chairs, is perfect for alfresco dining or celebrating something special under the open sky.

As evening falls, gather around the fire pit to share stories and laughter, reflecting on the day’s adventures.
