Duck Cottage sleeps 3. It has been sensitively converted from a large tithe barn leaving the original oak beams and mighty trusses in place. Decorated in a traditional style Duck Cottage has a cosy and welcoming feel. The south facing patio overlooks Chelmarsh Reservoir where rambling roses cover the picket fence. The perfect spot for a relaxing BBQ and a welcome break away from the stresses of daily life.

Perfect in every way
We have stayed at The Dinney many times, whilst visiting Bridgnorth as we know everything will be first class. Karen & Keith
are perfect hosts, we have never found anything other than a first class service, Which every property you choose, and we have stayed in quite a few, they have all been to a very high standard.
The views are amazing from each property, with a guarantee of peace and tranquillity.

A brief break
The Dinney is in an idyllic setting and everything required is there! We wished we could have stayed longer. The only thing we missed was Duck Cottage did not have a garden parasol which was a bit crucial for using the lovely patio, particularly during the heatwave! Otherwise absolutely wonderful. The welcoming cake was very well received too.

Disappointing
We stayed at the Dinney two years ago in Garden Cottage which was excellent and on that basis we decided to return. This year, as Garden Cottage was unavailable we booked Duck instead. Sadly, we were disappointed with the standard. The paintwork was marked in places and there were stains on the lounge rug and on the back door mat. Overall the cottage looked tired. The kitchen was ill equipped and had odd numbers of glasses, crockery & glassware. Three adults eating at the dining table (tucked under the stairs) was too cramped. We had a very thick, heavy winter duvet on the double bed. 9.5 I think, which was not suitable for June. On our arrival in the evening, the cottage was cold and we couldn't get the heating to work. There were no instructions in the folder or online. The owner Karen did arrive promptly the following morning to sort it out and showed us that to work the heating you simply turned the thermostat up to 22.5. It seemed that was the only way it would work!
On the plus side, we loved the small garden and the beautiful views over the lake. The location was excellent, with lots to see and do. Especially the arboretum which we all enjoyed.
