A true gem and a magical location for a solo trip or couples’ holiday, this traditional one-bed property is brimming with rustic charm and original features. It’s located in the market town of Ludlow, with its listed buildings and fascinating ruined castle (0.5 miles) overlooking the River Teme, is a wonderful spot for a Shropshire trip with your loved one.

The accommodation feels remarkably cosy and welcoming inside, and has low ceilings, raw brickwork and rustic wooden beams throughout. A colourful decor comprising carefully chosen artwork contributes to its homely atmosphere. Relax with your partner and pet in the lovely lounge/diner, which features a welcoming fireplace with a wood burner-effect fire, along with a TV/DVD for some easy entertainment in the evenings. Cook up yummy meals in the ever-so-sweet kitchen, which is decked out with a rustic apron sink and wooden work surfaces. On warm days, you can take your food out to the enclosed rear courtyard, which is furnished with a table and chairs. There’s also a pretty front garden boasting views of the town walls.

Locally, you’ll find plenty to do, whether that’s wandering around Ludlow’s quirky independent shops or attending one of the town’s many excellent festivals. Strolls along the river are a true delight on sunny days. Further afield, you can go walking in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, perhaps heading up to Flounders’ Folly (10 miles) or admiring the landscaped gardens at Millichope Park (11 miles). Wilderhope Manor (14.5 miles), a National Trust site featuring an Elizabethan gabled manor house and lovely walks around the surrounding farmland, is another popular local attraction.
