Spotlessly clean and comfortable. The television was very high spec and the kitchen equipment was top of the range (Kitchen Aid kettle and toaster). Perfect location for easily exploring Ludlow as you're at the top of the hill level with the castle and church. And perfect location to explore the area. Stairs are steep but perfectly manageable even if you're less nimble and with a bad knee like me.

This is a first rate holiday cottage which is incredidbly well equipped with very high quality appliances and furnishings. The "welcome pack" is almost unbelievable with wine, homemade cakes, muffins and biscuits as well as milk in the fridge. This is without doubt the best "home from home" you could wish for and many other property owners are put to shame. The close proximity to Ludlow centre is a bonus with every facility you could wish for in easy walking distance. I'm sure we'll be back again in the future. Very many thanks to the property owners.

Our host was especially welcoming and helpful. The cottage is clean and very well equipped, especially the kitchen, although we only used the kettle as there were so many wonderful places to enjoy meals in the town. On-site parking was a bonus, and the closeness of the railway station was also convenient. Already planning a return visit next year.
