A very enjoyable and comfortable stay at the Cornhouse
A lovely cottage set in a very quiet location and very helpful hosts. A comfortable and well equipped property that is convenient for Shrewsbury, walking in the Carding Mill Valley and several National Trust properties nearby.

Wonderful, relaxing, peaceful and spacious
We had a super stay in Hook-a-gate at this spacious and very well presented and equipped cottage. Nora was a lovely host and left a generous welcome basket. We like to try different places and never stay in the same accomodation twice, but I’d definitely make an exception for this lovely property in a great location to explore Shrewsbury and the surrounding area. Thanks so much Nora.

Excellent Cottage in quiet location for exploring Shropshire
Second time we have stay here ... lovely cottage for a couple in small village 4 miles from centre of Shrewsbury. Greeted with a lovely welcome pack including milk, eggs, bread , butter and biscuits . Bathroom and shower on the ground floor and lounge/kitchen (one room) on the first floor with outside sitting area if the weather is warm - lovely views. Great base to explore this part of the world as we visited Powis Castle and charming village of Ludlow both about 45 minutes driving. Shrewsbury 10 minutes max is also an excellent walk around with lovely gardens etc

About the host

Hosted by Nora and Simon Richards

Host profile image
Hello, we are Nora & Simon Richards & we have lived at Hanley House since 1993. This used to be the farmhouse associated with a large farm. A few farm buildings close to the house remain, of which two are of traditional brick & tile, but were in a very sorry state.
One was the Corn House with hay loft & stable & the other was a workshop/smithy with a granary above. We decided to build these as purpose designed holiday cottages, they became available from 2005 & have ever since provided enjoyable breaks for people all over the world!.
We run the cottages ourselves & also look after the gardens, which are often complimented upon by our visitors. We get great satisfaction from reading our visitors comments & we are delighted that 5 star ratings are the norm!.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is a converted farm building specifically designed as a holiday let. For over 10 years it has been very popular and rated highly by our many visitors. It is a quiet location away from the main road with easy and quick access to major road networks. Shops only about 5 minutes away.
