We had a wonderful time at his location. Beautiful and well-equipped apartment. Martin and Kate were wonderful owners and gave us a warm welcome. Martins help to get our delayed luggage transferred from the airport was way beyond the usual curtesy of a landlord.
This property is in a beautiful location. The owners have thought of everything and it was immaculately clean. There were homemade cakes on arrival with a pint of milk and tea/coffee. The kitchen was very well equipped and soft furnishings, bed linen & towels all of good quality. Lovely self contained garden. Really could not fault anything.
The cottage was so lovely, better than the photos. Amazing view and equipped with everything you would need and more. Extremely comfy bed and sofa, everything felt brand new. Private garden and patio area which was lovely. Great location, good little pub 2 minutes walk with very good pizzas on Wednesdays and Fridays. Good Chinese takeaway 5 mins drive away too. Lots of quaint villages close by and great walks for all abilities. We didn’t want to leave and would highly recommend. Lovely homemade cakes on arrival were thoroughly enjoyed.

About the host
Hosted by Martin and Kate
We love the calm and tranquillity of this area having moved from nearby Shrewsbury. Previously we owned and ran an artisan bakery in Shrewsbury and now bake real bread in our wood fired bread oven in the garden. We hope to have a bakery school in the future.
We will leave you to enjoy the space, but if you want us we are just next door if you need information about the local area or anything else. When we are not working we will mostly be gardening or enjoying just living here.
