This beautiful 18th-century property was awarded Ludlow's Conservation and Heritage Award for quality of conservation and enhancement. It offers a delightful combination of original features and contemporary comforts with six bedrooms and five bathrooms – a perfect getaway for large groups of friends or multi-generational families. From here it’s just a few metres’ stroll into the heart of Ludlow, with its Medieval and Georgian architecture, 11th-century castle and array of boutiques, art galleries and excellent places to eat. While you could easily spend all your time exploring this gorgeous town, there’s much to do if you wish to venture further afield, including cycling, fishing, golf or spending a day at the racecourse, 2.5 miles. Set out for walks in the stunning scenery of the Long Mynd and Caradoc Hills, 11 miles, or head to the attractions of Stokesay Castle, the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre or the Acton Scott Heritage Farm, all within 6 miles.
Decorated to the highest standard, this Grade II-listed property boasts rugged oak beams and ornamental fireplaces combined with antique furnishings, spacious bathrooms and elegant bedrooms, all adding up to an irresistible holiday destination. Hang coats in the spacious hallway before strolling through to the impressive lounge, where a wood burner takes pride of place, surrounded by comfortable seating for you to stretch out on. There’s a large Smart TV, too, for streaming favourite shows and movies. The bright and spacious kitchen is equipped with everything necessary for creating hearty meals and includes a breakfast table for four – a lovely spot for a morning coffee while taking in the view of the garden. Everyone can gather around the table in the separate dining room for sociable meals, perhaps getting out a board game afterwards for some friendly competition. One of the six bedrooms is on the ground floor – a pretty twin room (which can be made up as a superking on request) which has access to a Jack-and-Jill shower and WC. This shower room is also a utility room with laundry facilities. The main staircase leads to three bedrooms, including the master bedroom with a handsome king size four-poster bed, a TV and an en-suite shower room. In the family bedroom, you’ll find a king size bed plus a single with a pull out single bed below. There is also another twin bedroom (which can be made up as a superking on request) on this level. These two rooms share a huge bathroom with a separate bath and shower. A secondary oak staircase leads from the dining room to the remaining two bedrooms, both superking rooms (which can be made up as twins on request) with en-suite shower rooms.
Leading off the kitchen is the courtyard garden, which is enclosed with high walls and has seating for everyone. Take your coffee out to enjoy the fresh air or make the most of the sunshine with a BBQ, perhaps grilling some tasty local produce you’ve picked up in town. A permit is provided for one car to park on the road opposite the property, additional roadside parking is available 150 metres away, and there’s a 24-hour car park approximately 500 metres away.
