Reviewers consistently mention the exceptional cleanliness of the property, highlighting its spotless condition and well-maintained appearance, which contributes to the overall excellent experience.
The property's location is celebrated for its beautiful views and quiet setting, with easy access to walks and nearby towns. It loses a few points only because the perfect score would require universal accessibility, which is not mentioned.
Guests find the Farmhouse very comfortable, noting the cosy log fire, comfortable beds, and well-furnished rooms that create a home-from-home experience.
The facilities are highly rated, with mentions of a well-stocked kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and secure outdoor space for dogs. The score is just shy of perfect due to the lack of any mention of certain amenities that might be expected in a luxury stay, such as a hot tub.
While guests express gratitude for the warm welcome and the helpfulness of the hosts, there is no specific mention of gifts or special touches that would fall under the category of thoughtfulness. Therefore, this score is set to null.
About this property
Clun 1.5 miles. Rockhill Farmhouse is a stunning stone cottage located near the charming town of Clun, in the heart of Shropshire Hills National Landscape. Nestled in the middle of vast plains of fields and hills, this property sleeps four and is perfectly placed for nature-lovers and hikers travelling with a furry friend. Walk into the property to find a well-presented sitting room where you’ll be able to kick your feet up on the plush sofas and warm up by the woodburning stove with a book or to watch something on the Smart TV. When you’re feeling peckish, make use of the fully-equipped, contemporary kitchen to whip up a meal and enjoy it at the dining table or the breakfast bar. During warmer months, open up the patio doors, grill a feast on the barbecue and eat out in the sunshine. You’ll also have access to all 4-acres of the nearby fields to walk the dog or have a picnic at the tables while taking in the stunning countryside and valley views. As the evening winds down, retreat to either beautifully-decorated bedrooms and take a relaxing, steaming shower in their respective en-suites before sinking into bed. A refreshing and relaxing break awaits you at Rockhill Farmhouse.
A.E. Houseman's poem, A Shropshire Lad, defined Clun as 'the quietest place under the sun', and with its dramatic ruin of a Norman castle, Saxon church, the bustling river which flows under the 14th century pack horse bridge, and a country inn, Clun is a rural gem situated in the South Shropshire Hills. It lies on the Shropshire Way in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close to the border of Wales, an area known as The Marches. This unspoilt part of Britain has an abundance of wildlife and beautiful unhindered walking and cycling routes winding their way through the countryside with the Clun and Kerry Forests, Offa's Dyke, and Kerry Ridgeway all close by. There are a wide range of festivals and shows on offer in the surrounding area throughout the year, including The Green Man festival in May. From Clun, you can also enjoy exploring the historic towns of Bishop's Castle, Presteigne, Ludlow, Shrewsbury, and Hereford, a must for visitors.

The owner, Vaughan,welcomed us as we entered the grounds and showed us around the beautiful property. The Farmhouse is finished to a very high standard and most comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. A secure four acre field to the rear of the property is a wonderful bonus. You do not have to go looking for somewhere to walk your dog, often a problem in rural areas. Secure off road parking and a gated entrance with lots of lights wired up within the grounds make the property welcoming and secure when arriving back from our days adventures. We recommend this property and have booked it for next year.

The standard of the property is excellent with everything you could possibly need and of exceptional quality. The area provides interest for all ages. We had fun visiting the quaint Postcard cafe in Clun, had an excellent meal in the Crown in Clunton, loved our walk by the Discovery Centre and had an interesting visit to Wroxeter and Attingham Park together with quality time in the property. Looking forward to our next visit.
