Spacious but lovely cosy cottage that is full of character. Helpful but unobtrusive owners Lucy and Marcus who live in the next property up the hill. 2 nice seating areas outdoors to enjoy any fine weather. Walks straight from the door up to Long Mynd. 2 pubs 1 mile down the lane, we only visited The Ragleth Inn which served excellent food and beerRead more.

We enjoyed everything about the holiday, including arriving to such a warm, cosy cottage. The very comfortable living room and charming dining room were highlights, as was the very comfortable bed.
