  No 7 is approximately 30 minutes walk to Ironbridge.

  Two museums conveniently situated directly opposite the house to visit and a fantastic but pricy cafe but these local attractions are not open Mondays or Tuesdays. Great location for all of the Blists Hill associated museums and you can also take dogs to Blists Hill and the gorge museum which is a big plus but none of the others we found allowed dogs. The cottage itself is very quaint, decorated and furnished to a good standard. I didn’t realise I needed to bring a hairdryer as I assumed it would be a standard item, there are three televisions and three toilets! We visited end of February and the log burner is still not connected sadly and there is a draft from the fireplace but throws are provided, the heating works well and the water pressure is off the scale! Very handy large cloakroom. Hopefully the lighting in the bathroom and a shower issue will be fixed next time we come. Would highly recommend this place, especially if you like walking as there are lots of hill walks from the house locally, my boys spotted deer and a fox at close distance :)

  We arrived late Thursday evening and was greeted by the hosts/owners of the barn a fabulous couple that really care about your stay and experience.

  They even helped us in with luggage etc.. the barn is amazing, everything that you need, very, very, very clean and very well maintained. Ample hot water, all things you would need home from home. The barn is situated just outside Ludlow which is a fab market town, and within an hour of Worcester / Hereford etc. The gardens of the barn are amazing all very peaceful and tranquil to relax after a busy day out and about. Ample car parking. We had a dog with us that loved the barn and the driveway down as grassed area to smell and walk overlooking a fishing lake. All very private and very perfect. If you book the barn don’t use the postcode as it will take you miles down a one car track, go to cravens arms first then put the postcode in, which the host told us when we arrived, I wouldn’t worry about the track either as the track only houses 4-6 houses and you would go down the track to anywhere else, in other words you don’t meet traffic. All very, very perfect, I wish the hosts best of luck. And many thanks for our short notice stay.

  This is a lovely cottage in a good area for branching out and visiting places such as Chester, Shrewsbury , Birmingham.

  It was clean and tidy inside and the beds were really comfortable. There was ample kitchen utensils and appliances in the kitchen. Areas for improvement could include; The cooker hob took a little while to figure out without any instructions, leading us to have to google how to operate it. There was a definite underlying smell of damp in the downstairs WC with noticeable mould spores on the peeling paint. The upstairs bathroom had a damp smell too. It would have also been good to have control over the bathroom radiators as having to leave damp towels hanging around only added to the overall damp smell. There is no outside area to hang towels if it is sunny so they stayed damp throughout the week. It would have been useful to have a lamp in the sitting areas at night instead of the wall lights as these reflected onto the TV screen. We enjoyed our stay here and liked the cottage and its location but wouldn’t stay again due to the dampness.

  Property states for 6 people.

  But only has four chairs in kitchen so if there are more than 4 of you will have to have meals will have to be staggers. The misleading details state three bathrooms there are only two. The shower upstairs which is so small if you are over 6ft is not fit for purpose. The other “bathroom” is in fact just a toilet with no shower or bath. The one downstairs is the size of a cupboard and smelt of damp and had silver fish in it. The height of the rooms are not mentioned in the details but if you are over 5”10 and normal stand to use the loo you can’t you will have to sit down !! The carpets were dirty in the en-suite and the decor dated. The 93rd birthday week that we were celebrating was ruined we had no alternative but to find a more suitable property the next day. But have been refused any refund or compensation. It’s only right that if anyone is thinking of booking that the photos and descriptions are not correct

  The warm and friendly welcome from Jan and Des ensured we felt relaxed and happy to be here from the outset.

  They were helpful and concerned that we had everything we needed. Pool Barn is a tastefully and beautifully furnished and decorated barn conversion in a stunning setting with the pool, garden and extensive grounds. It was clean, cosy, warm, comfortable and well equipped. The view through the lounge French window as we relaxed with a coffee after our days out was truly lovely. Close by in Craven Arms is the excellent Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre, offering lots of information, good facilities and food and a starting point for a variety of walks. A lovely, unspoilt area with lots to see and do – a highlight for us was our Long Mynd walk starting and finishing at the National Trust visitor centre in Carding Mill Valley. A brilliant area to visit and Pool Barn was the perfect base for our week in Shropshire.
