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: A large village within the county of Shropshire, Pontesbury can be found nestled on the norther edge of the Shropshire Hills AONB. Boasting beautiful scenery and walking routes, this area is wonderful for exploring nature, history, and romantic park. With a long mining history once providing a local industry of coal, iron, lead, and stone, it is now an area which provides an array of impressive educational institutions, various delightful eateries and cafes to explore, it's a marvelous base for a family holiday in Shewsbury. For stunning scenery, Earl's Hill is the place to be, with panoramic landscapes and a fabulous range of walking routes, it's well worth the effort for a rewarding view at the end. Just a short drive away is the county town of Shewsbury, with an 11th-century castle and military museum, along with the Shewsbury Abbey and museum displaying ancient relics, it's a wonderful place to immerse yourself with history and knowledge. The Hawkstone Park Follies is just one of many other stunning sights, an enchanting diversity of natural sandstone hills surrounded by gullies, caves, towers, and bridges, there's a world of adventure within these scenic acres, not forgetting activities for all the family to get involved in including enchanting trails, storytelling, and not forgetting to stop for a tea break in the Glass House Tearooms overlooking the lands; the perfect end to an action-packed day. Pontesbury is in a fabulous location for exploring the surrounding lands of Shropshire, a quaint and quiet village surrounded by an abundance of activity.
