Tucked away near the charming village of Little Stretton, this beautifully renovated Grade II listed country house offers the perfect base for a memorable countryside escape. Quirky and full of character, the house blends period charm with modern comfort.
Original features like exposed beams, uneven floors, and nooks and crannies lend it a truly unique personality, while recent renovations ensure a high standard of living throughout. With five spacious bedrooms, it comfortably sleeps up to ten guests, making it ideal for groups of friends or families seeking a special place to relax and reconnect. The lower part of the property unfolds across a series of varied levels, with winding steps that lead up and down, guiding you into a collection of uniquely connected rooms.
Set within the stunning Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the house is just a short drive or scenic walk from Church Stretton, often referred to as "Little Switzerland" for its dramatic hillscape and lush valleys, with three local pubs nearby. This thriving market town offers independent shops, welcoming cafés, pubs, and regular farmers’ markets. The surrounding landscape is a haven for walkers, with access to iconic routes such as the Longmynd directly from the front door, Carding Mill Valley, and Ragleth Hill. Nearby Little Stretton itself is a delightful village with two cosy pubs and a timeless atmosphere. Whether you’re hiking, cycling, birdwatching, or simply taking in the views, the area provides endless opportunities to enjoy nature at its best. Historic towns like Ludlow and Shrewsbury are within easy reach for day trips, offering castles, riverside walks, and excellent local food.
Whether you’re curled up by the fire after a long day on the hills or gathered around the dining table for a celebratory meal, this country house offers a warm and welcoming retreat in one of England’s most unspoilt rural settings.
