Ryelands Cottage

Why you'll love staying here

Situated in a quiet, rural hamlet, Ryelands Cottage is a stylish barn conversion set on a traditional working farm in the heart of Shropshire. Beautifully resorted with contemporary interiors, it’s ideal for a family or couple looking for a peaceful countryside break.

Outside, you’ll find a large shared lawn complete with a barbecue for al fresco dining, a children’s play area, and wonderful views of Brown Clee Hill. Guests are also welcome to explore the farm, and, depending on the season, bottle-feed lambs, meet newborn calves, or collect fresh eggs from the hens. There’s also a farm shop on site, stocked with local produce, crafts, and plants to take a little piece of the countryside home with you.
The surrounding area has plenty of attractions, from historic castles and beautiful gardens to National Trust and English Heritage properties. Just a short drive away lies the 700-year-old market town of Much Wenlock, with its winding streets, half-timbered black and white buildings, limestone cottages, independent shops, traditional pubs, and the 7th century ruins of Wenlock Priory.
Further afield, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ironbridge in Telford offers a fascinating insight into the Industrial Revolution, with a collection of museums including Blists Hill Victorian Town, where you can step back in time to the 1900s, and the iconic iron bridge spanning the River Severn.

There are plenty of opportunities for walking and cycling with the Shropshire Hills National Landscape on the doorstep. Popular routes include Carding Mill Valley and The Long Mynd, The Stiperstones, and The Wrekin with paths taking visitors along river valleys, pastures, meadows, and ancient woodland.
