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: This market town is nestled just north of the Shropshire Hills AONB, near the borders of Wales and England. It occupies a town hall, train station, real ale pubs, cafés and restaurants, as well as a few specialty shops. Visit the Tudor town of Shrewsbury nearby, with its castle, abbey and museum and art gallery, while the National Trust's Attingham Park boasts a walled garden. Throughout the area is walking, fishing and outdoor pursuit all waiting your discovery.
