Welsh Borders cottages
Are you looking for picturesque landscapes where you can while
away the hours roving in the great outdoors? Somewhere rural and
tranquil, but close enough to home so as to not warrant too long a
drive? Take a look at cottages to rent near the Welsh border, the
ideal destination for a peaceful holiday in stunning, pastoral
surroundings.
The Welsh Borders are often overshadowed by the neighbouring
regions of Pembrokeshire, Snowdonia and the Cotswolds, but rent a
cottage along the Welsh boundary and you'll soon realise what
you've been missing. Comprising four distinct counties-
Cheshire, Shropshire, Herefordshire and Gloucestershire-
there's something for everyone to explore and discover on a
cottage holiday near the Welsh Borders.
Let's start with Cheshire, home to a patchwork of pretty
green fields, quaint villages and one of the UK's most historic
cities: Chester. Here, holidaymakers can enjoy the vibrancy of one
of the UK's most fascinating cities whilst being within easy
reach of plenty of charming countryside- what could better? There
is a great range of cottages to rent in Cheshire, so why
not give it a go and see what you'll discover?
The Welsh Borders- A Wonderful Holiday Destination
South of Cheshire lies Shropshire, arguably the prettiest of
Wales' neighbouring counties. Boasting its very own AONB (Are
of Outstanding Natural Beauty) as well as the captivating medieval
town of Shrewsbury, Shropshire is a hidden jewel not to be missed.
The Shropshire Hills AONB may just be the best place for walking in
England, thanks to its breath taking, mountainous vistas that seem
to stretch to the horizon.
What else can you discover on a cottage holiday near the Welsh
Borders? Try Herefordshire, home to the pristine Wye Valley where
kayaking is the most popular way to explore. Head into Wales to
break a sweat hiking in the Brecon Beacons, whose Eastern
heathlands meet English soil. Trek a long a woodland trail in the
mysterious Forest of
Dean, or explore the cobbled streets of Gloucester, where
history and heritage abound.
With so much to see and do near Wales, you'd be mad to go
