Set in the Cartway area of the ancient and historic market town of Bridgnorth, this attractive red-brick property offers the perfect base for couples and solo travellers seeking a retreat in Shropshire. From the doorstep, cross the road to find a traditional 17th-century pub, then venture further into town to explore the high street. From here, you can also walk through the castle gardens and continue to the Severn Valley Steam Railway. Bridgnorth is divided by the River Severn into High Town and Low Town, linked by a choice of historic steps and the charming Bridgnorth Cliff Railway (150 metres); uncover more of the town’s rich history with a visit to Bridgnorth Northgate Museum (1 mile). There are several National Trust properties to visit nearby, including Dudmaston Estate. Alternatively, you can enjoy walking, cycling, and horse riding across the surrounding Shropshire countryside or the Severn Valley Country Park (8 miles).
Before stepping into this quirky home, take a moment to appreciate its striking red-brick exterior and convenient town-centre location, setting the scene for an action-packed Shropshire escape. After parking up, head through the back door, and venture inside to uncover a characterful, reverse-level design where original cottage features blend with homely, modern comforts. Find a restful double bedroom at ground-floor level, offering the perfect spot to rest up between adventures. Serving the bedroom and completing the ground floor is an indulgent bathroom with a baby roll-top bath for long soaks and a sleek walk-in rainfall shower. Climb the stairs to the first floor to find the social heart of the home, the light-filled open-plan lounge/diner. This airy room invites relaxation after days of history hunting and walking; sink into the soft seating, flick on the Smart TV, and set a cosy vibe for the evening when you fire up the wood burner set in an ornate fireplace. When stomachs rumble, find that the separate cottage-style kitchen boasts everything needed for cooking up holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed back in the lounge/diner or alfresco-style out on the decked balcony.
Outside, the decked balcony is elevated and backs against greenery for privacy and comfort. Enjoy slow morning coffees out here using the furniture, or gather each evening for alfresco dining with the local produce you purchased in town. Guests will benefit from private parking for 1 small car only. SUVs and larger vehicles must use on-street parking or public car parks (within 0.5 miles), subject to availability.
