• "The property was clean, tidy and well equipped."

  The welcome pack was thoughtful and we really enjoyed the homemade cake. The property is a little tired, just tiny things like scratched floor, rusty radiator, dishwasher not working. It was expensive for 5 nights so I would have expected a little more, but it’s a beautiful location and we had a nice time. I also think the front door should be knocked by anyone checking the hot tub rather than just coming through the back fence, whether or not they shout hello first. I didn’t hear them so was surprised to find 3 people there when I came downstairs on Monday afternoon.

• "Lovely property with great facilities in a beautiful location."

  My only gripe is the 4pm check in and 9:30 check out (although I understand the challenge and need for cleaning, etc.). Have previously stayed at The Wain House too. Excellent. Hope to stay again in the future.

• "We stayed almost 2 weeks at Turnip house, and really enjoyed it, the rooms were very nice and the kitchen well equipped."

  We enjoyed sitting in the yard in the late afternoon as it is a sun trap. The surrounding are is beautiful and the local pubs all served excellent food, though it’s best to book rather than just show up. The cottage is a good base for exploring Shropshire/Hereford being close to Church Stretton, Ludlow and Much Wenlock which are nice towns.

• "Lovely, cosy cottage with some nice touches."

  Our only gripe, the close proximity of next door's hot tub - the other side of the partitioning fence close to our French Doors. A large family were holidaying there, who enjoyed using the hot tub especially in the evenings. Regretfully we could hear the chatter even with doors and windows shut, which was irritating. Spoke to Chloe Nicholson at Westhope and suggested management moved said hot tub to other end of courtyard which would be much better for all.

• "We enjoyed our stay at the Turnip House , with plenty of space to relax and a fabulous hot tub."

  The cottage was spotless, bright and airy with spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, and having a downstairs bedroom/bathroom was a real bonus for me with my limited mobility. Disability friendly indeed. The little extra treats are such a welcome. The men enjoyed the games room too. We enjoyed the area very much and look forward to a return visit.

• "Just an amazing break."

  Peaceful and tranquil yet in good driving distance to Ludlow and Church Stretton. The hot tub was fantastic. The small gym was great, the games room could do with a like bit of maintenance but still great to have for the kids. Will definitely look at revisiting at some point. Thank you for the complimentary welcome pack. Very much appreciated.

• "Great for a couple of nights away from it all although a bit remote as w3 like to walk to a local pub."

  We managed overall but one main issue we had was on the second day we went for a long walk in the morning and came back early afternoon and the lady came to check the hot tub and put a hose in to refill (with cold water) and we had to wait for the temperature to get hot enough for us to go in and enjoy. Everywhere we’ve been before our hot tub was checked and sorted early morning so we could use from midday onwards.

  Good morning, Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. Our team are asked to check the hot tubs around midday, this is because guests are usually having lunch at this point, we try to be discreet in order to disturb everyone as little as possible. We will have a chat with the team and will definitely take your feedback into consideration. Many thanks Westhope Country Retreats Property Owner

• "We stayed for a week at the Turnip House and enjoyed every minute."

  The cottage is lovely and the surrounding countryside beautiful. There was a homemade cake, a bottle of wine and some chocolates waiting for us on our arrival which was a nice touch. The cottage was spacious, clean and well equipped, and the garden enclosed and private. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. I would definitely recommend the Turnip House and hope to be back there myself one day.

  Would have benefited from extra crockery particularly when dishwasher was operating.

• "Fabulous property with great facilities."

  Hot tub was a particular hit. Lots of great walking straight from the door. The tv was a little eccentric but then we didn’t go to watch tv. There is an art college that run great art & craft courses on the doorstep. This would be a great place to stay while attending one of their courses.The arrival time was a little late and checkout time a little early but other than that it was great.

• "We had a great week at Turnip House."

  The cottage was very spacious, clean and inviting. The treats when we arrived were a lovely welcome too. We enjoyed the tub tub every day which was easy to use and manage which my children also enjoyed. We did the Alpaca Experience with an afternoon tea after which was amazing and situated right next door. Even though the weather wasn't great my boys loved the games room and we were able to borrow board games and DVD's. We hope to return to Turnip House another time.

  The house was just perfect - it was spotlessly clean, the landlady made us feel very welcome with a bottle of wine, a homemade cake (which was delicious) and a jug of milk from the farm waiting for us, as well as a big bar of Cadbury chocolate. Those small and thoughtful touches really made a difference. The landlady popped in to top up the shemicals in the hot tub and was very friendly, chatty and helpful. We felt well looked after and had a wonderful time!

  The hot tub and outside area were a great addition to the holiday and helped to make it very relaxing, we would recommend this holiday home and hope to arrange another visit possibly with other family members renting the cottages next door as appears to be ideal location for large group holidays.
