Region: A E Housman once wrote that Shropshire was “the quietest place under the sun” and today the county remains something of a rural idyll, recognised as one of the least crowded and most peaceful regions in England.
Town: Resting in the heart of Shropshire is the bustling market town of Shrewsbury, set within a giant loop of the River Severn. With over 600 listed buildings, Shrewsbury is known to be one of England's finest heritage towns with cobbled alleys, main squares and host to annual events and festivals. Discover a wonderful selection of amenities from cafés and tearooms to restaurants and pubs, along with attractions like Shrewsbury Abbey, Shrewsbury Castle, Quarry Park and National Trust's Attingham Park.
