Karen was on hand with any help needed. Icing on the cake was the two scrummy cakes provided at our arrival. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great venue ##### Sue C.

Lovely modern spacious house which catered to our every need ! We are a party of nine couples who have a weekend away each year and The Rookery was fabulous. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and spotlessly clean ! What more do you need ##### Julie W.

The kitchen is beautiful and the views are just lovely. Lots of great walks in the area, including riverside walks with views of the gorgeous Shropshire countryside. All the rooms are spacious doubles, so no-one will feel as if they've been landed with a dud. We had such a brilliant three nights here and didn't want to leave!

We also hired the Kingfisher and Garden Cottages plus 3 B & B rooms for the Friday and Saturday and the 44 residents were joined by around 45 local friends for the food, drinks and disco in the Rookery Garden, overlooking the Chelmarsh Reservoir. It was also the ideal setting for an Anglo-French Boules match for the Ricard Cup.

Exceeded my expectations beyond words! Fabulous cottage, fabulous location, and fabulous team! My friends have noted the details for their own use. Highly recommended and thank you!

I had high expectations for the accommodation at The Rookery and, oh boy, I was not disappointed at all, in fact my expectations were more than exceeded.The Rookery is perfect, well appointed, spacious, comfortable accommodation up there with the best of them. As a group of 15, we couldn’t have asked for more to make our celebrations so special, well done to the team at The Dinney. ##### janet w.

Hard to believe, I know. In fact some of our group are returning later this year to stay in one of the smaller cottages. Beautiful countryside, lovely well appointed accommodation and the friendliest of owners. I know it’s easy to say but I can’t imagine how anyone could be disappointed. ##### janet w.

It's our second time and our party of 13 60-somethings have already booked for 2026, so that should be enough of a recommendation for anyone. I could write about the positive stuff but it's all detailed in the accurate online listing. Over the last 40 years, our large group of friends have met each year in a variety of large UK houses for a few nights at a time and this, without exception, is the best we've stayed in. Just book it, you won't be disappointed. ##### Gary H.

The bedrooms are a delight - large, airy and well decorated. The open plan lounge, dining area and modern kitchen are also exceptional. The kitchen is well equipped and user-friendly. The games room was useful for those members of our party who wanted to watch sport. The patio area has plenty of outdoor seating and a lovely view. The gas BBQ was also a good feature. We were a party of 13 adults and we all had a fantastic time. This was our second visit and just as good as we remembered it from 2024. Looking forward to visiting again in 2026!

We needed a place to stay for a family celebration and holiday. We found The Rookery to be ideal. With nine bedrooms all with really good quality en suite facilities, everyone was very happy with their accommodation. Set in beautiful, peaceful countryside some older family members were able to relax and enjoy the location while others were able to go to some of the nearby visitor attractions. On the week we stayed the weather was excellent and most of our party enjoyed at least one walk from the site. Had the weather not been so kind it was nice to see the table tennis table and table football provided as well as books and indoor games. Had our party included children I am sure the small football field would have been a great attraction. The kitchen and shower rooms were all extremely well equipped with high quality fittings and accessories, and the beds were very comfortable too!

We are a group of 8 ladies who meet up once a year in the Shropshire area for a long weekend. We've hired many different properties over the years and The Rookery knocked them all out of the park! Stunning scenery and peaceful surroundings, beautifully appointed and well-thought out accommodation, spacious bedrooms with comfy beds and all en suite. We'd booked for next year before we left! Thanks also to Karen the manager for being very helpful with any of our questions and so welcoming. The homemade cakes left in the kitchen for us were a real treat!
