However, the highlight was the stunning garden, which featured everything you could imagine: a hot tub, barbecue, lounge chairs—you name it, they had it all. This place is perfect for a relaxing holiday. Our host, Pauline, warmly welcomed us, handed over the keys, and gave us a tour of the house. She even provided a lovely welcome pack, which was a thoughtful touch. We absolutely loved our stay here and will definitely return. If you're considering this property, trust me—the pictures don’t do it justice. The mattress could have been more comfortable ##### Nishtha This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ian 30 Jul 2025 #### Wonderful stay Every little detail was thought of and provided for a relaxing break Nothing ##### Ian This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### COLIN 14 Jul 2025 #### Great break Great accomodation and facilities Nothing ##### COLIN This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cath 30 Mar 2025 #### We had a lovely weekend.

Pauline & Paul were super friendly. Accommodation was very snug and warm. Kitchen was well equipped. Nice big TV and comfy sofa for the evenings in. Added bonus of the Hot Tub after a hard days walking. Ideally located for Ludlow, ShrewsburyTelford. Short walk into Craven Arms. Buss stops to LudlowShrewsbury right across the road. Walks and historic stuff all around. Only point to note is that property is cited near a main road be prepared for a little noise from all the busy farm folk & traffic. Other than that would happily visit again :) ##### Dave This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colin 7 Oct 2024 #### Recommended cottage The Annexe is a very well equipped, comfortable cottage. which is an ideal base for much that Shropshire has to offer, being within easy reach of Shrewsbury and Ludlow. Stokesay Castle (which shouldn't be missed) is minutes away. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed, including the fantastic hot tub. We had a really relaxing break and would not hesitate to return and recommend to others. The only negative point was the bed, which was standard double and smaller than we are used to. ##### Colin This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Lynn 15 Aug 2024 #### The nearest location for the wedding we were attending, no transport required.
