A lovely detached cottage, pleasantly placed in the rural village of Leebotwood, near the market town of Church Stretton. This delightful property is ideally located between Shrewsbury and Church Stretton, set back amongst the verdant countryside. Open the front door to the sitting area which is extremely enticing and quaint, perfect for lounging while you chat about the day’s events. Lead on through the open doorway to a fresh, contemporary kitchen with a dining area overlooking the garden and abounding woodland trickling down to the stream. The two bedrooms are immaculately presented, with the added benefit of a twin bedroom and sparkling en-suite shower rooms to suit your requirements. Outside is an abundance of plants, along a sizeable driveway, adorned with beautiful flowers leading up to the cottage where there is an area to sit out and enjoy light refreshments. There is also a lovely little enclosed garden to the rear, should you wish some privacy. Church Stretton, set amidst stunning country scenery, has often been described as "Little Switzerland".

The shower door was ver small that only slim people could get in. The water could not be adjusted. The strip lights did not work also the cooker hud light did not work. The seating was uncomfortable and after this stay we my not be using you again.

There were just a couple of things on the downside; the lack of large mirrors, the mirrors in the cottage comprised of one in each of the bathrooms in which I could only see my head (I'm 5' 2" ), there was a shaving \make up mirror in the bedrooms but larger mirrors could easily be fixed to the large cupboard doors in both bedrooms. Also the shower doorways are very narrow, anyone of a larger build would find it difficult to get in or out. Apart from that I would recommend Little Dingle.

I think we would have liked to have met our host at least once during our stay.other properties we have stayed at have had a pack with things to do places to eat etc, just lastly the garden area needed a rethink maybe cut back the trees and bushes to make the most of the afternoon sunshine.
