  • "Robins Nest is a cosy and comfortable apartment set in beautiful countryside on a working farm."

    It is accessed by a fairly steep metal staircase which you need to be careful going up or down. Care also needs to be taken with the corners of the cooker hood if you are tall. My husband cracked his head on it a couple of times. Having said that, it is a peaceful and relaxing place to stay, we would go again.

  • "Lovely small holiday flat, ideal for walkers or just people who want to visit Shropshire."

    Nice spacious living room, and a comfortable bed in the bedroom. No bath, but the shower is good. Kitchen is well equipped. Garden is small, but very nice, and has a large number of resident birds, mainly sparrows. It should really be called Sparrows Nest as they are definitely nesting somewhere in the eaves of the flat. There is an outside table at the top of the entrance stairs, which will be nice to sit out at, when the weather is a bit warmer and more settled.

  • "The apartment was spacious and clean."

    The bed, chairs and sofa were comfortable. Had everything we needed in the kitchen, and there was a decent size fridge and freezer (handy if you were to stay for a week or two). We enjoyed sitting out on the balcony looking over the fields to the hills. Thanks for the milk, eggs and welshcakes on arrival.
