About this property
THE STABLE, pet friendly, character holiday cottage in Craven Arms
This stone-built cottage sleeps six people in four bedrooms and is near Craven Arms in Shropshire.
This stone-built cottage near Craven Arms is an attractive detached barn conversion which stands in its own grounds, close to the owners' home on a 200-acre working livestock farm. The cottage sleeps six people in four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The cottage also has a fitted kitchen and a sitting room with doors to the garden. Outside is off road parking and a lawned garden with outdoor furniture. The Stable is a lovely stone cottage in beautiful surroundings. An excellent Craven Arms cottage for discovering all of beautiful Shropshire.
Amenities: Oil central heating with electric stove in sitting room. Electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, TV with Freeview, DVD. Fuel and power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Cot, highchair and stairgate on request. Off road parking for 4 cars. Bike storage. Enclosed lawned garden with gravel sitting area, furniture and BBQ. Two well-behaved dogs welcome, please keep dogs on lead when outside of the garden due to livestock on farm. Sorry, no smoking. Shops 2 miles, pub 1 mile.
Region: A E Houseman 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: The town of Craven Arms is located between the medieval town of Ludlow and Church Stretton. The historic towns of Bishops Castle, Ludlow and Shrewsbury are a short drive away, and offer magnificent castles, riverside walks, shops, pubs, restaurants, theatres and a variety of festivals.
