The setting is idyllic and peaceful. The farmhouse is fitted out to a very high standard throughout. Perfect for people and dogs to stay in whilst enjoying Clun and surrounding unspoilt countryside. Need to lift dog over some stiles on the Shropshire Way.

Patricia

I booked this for friends and family as Vaughan and Eileen are my neighbours! The house is beautifully decorated and furnished, with a very high attention to detail. My friends and family loved it. Everything you could wish for and more, let alone the most accommodating of hosts! We would all highly recommend this property and its location. Fabulous!

Duncan

Fabulous Accommodation, very clean & comfortable & spacious, beds were very comfortable & lovely bed linen, we enjoyed our week away with our 2 dogs, A very welcoming host & helpful.

A fantastic farmhouse cottage with a premium feel and very welcoming. We were 2 adults and 2 children, along with our dog, and it was the perfect base for us to explore the Shropshire hills. The cottage was very spacious, immaculately clean and had everything we needed. The enclosed paddock next to the property was great, especially in the evenings with a wonderful view at sunset. Thanks to Vaughan and family for the hospitality!

Spotless, tastefully furnished and decorated with every facility provided the best self catering accommodation we have ever experienced.

Classy,comfortable. Excellent facilities. Helpful owner.

We had a fantastic break. Couldnt fault a thing. Everything was of very high quality and absolutely spotless. Vaughn was very welcomingwe would love to come back! Loved it. thank you Marion, Martin and Sue

Lovely, clean & comfortable house with everything we needed. Furnished to a high standard with plenty of space inside & out. Great location with easy access to places in Shropshire & Wales.

This was better than a 'home away from home'! The standard of accommodation was exemplary. Absolutely everything we needed or wanted was provided. Our only slight issue was that as our dog is small, he would have been able to get through the sheep wire or under the gate chasing after the hares in the field, so we had to keep him on the lead. There are lots of good walks in the area details provided in the house, with fabulous views. Thank you, Vaughan, for hosting us. I'm sure we'll be back.

We had a very comfortable and relaxing time. The accommodation was well furnished and clean, with excellent attention to detail, in a great situation. The hosts were friendly and helpful, with useful local knowledge. The welcome gift was a nice touch. We hope to return at a similar time next year.

Our second visit to Rockhill and it didn't disappoint again. Such a well equipped and comfortable cottage in beautiful surroundings. Owners very friendly yet unobtrusive. Great for humans and four legged friends I'm sure we'll be back

We really enjoyed our stay at Rockhill Farmhouse. The cottage was lovely and very comfortable. We definitely recommend staying there.

Wow. What a wonderful holiday homeimmaculate. This is the best cottage we have stayed in, with Sykes, and we have visited around 12 up to now. Everything oozed class. The bed linenas good as any 5 hotel. The bedrooms are huge, with perfect ensuites. If you like a log burner, this one is the best. Thank you Vaughan, for our relaxing weekend away. Lynn & Danny We will recommend your holiday cottage 100

Rockhill Farmhouse was spotlessly clean and has all the amenities you could need. The dog walking field is a real bonus and a place to enjoy the peace and quiet. There was plenty to do with children from this base and they loved playing in the stream at Clun. The owners were helpful when needed and the electric charging was straightforward. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Natalie

Rockhill Farmhouse was absolutely perfect. Our family of 4 and 1 dog had a lovely stay. It was really clean, well laid out and everything we needed in a home away from home. Vaughan was a really welcoming host. We would definitely recommend and would sta here again.

One of the best properties we have stayed in. Everything was spotless, bed very comfortable. 4 acre field perfect for the dog. We would 100 recommend. A lovely peaceful break. Thank you

We had a lovely few days at Rockhill Farmhouse. The accommodation is of a very high standard, very clean and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. It is quiet and surrounded by beautiful countryside. The wood burner was a nice bonus and kept us toasty warm despite the snow outside. It is in a good location, a few minutes drive from the village, we enjoyed a nice meal in The White Horse pub. Church Stretton and Ludlow are about 30 minutes drive away and are worth a visit. We would recommend Rockhill Farmhouse if you like a quiet and very comfortable stay. Many thanks to our friendly host Vaughan.

Friendly hosts and perfect accommodation , highly recommended.

The most lovely relaxing place to stay, the kind of home you would want to live in. The hosts are wonderful and the location is stunning. It was our second time and cant wait to go back.

Philip

What a wonderful property. We stayed during a hiking holiday and it was just perfect. All the facilities you could hope for and everything is up to a really high standard. Location too is perfect for walking in shropshire offas dyke.

Stephen

The accommodation was by far the best we have ever experienced in the UK. Beautifully presented and furnished. Our host were very friendly and helpful.

Russell

Fabulous property in a stunning location with great walking from the doorstep. As two couples staying to celebrate New Year the wine fridge was particularly appreciated as were the incredibly comfortable beds. The field running up behind the property was perfect for watching wintry sunrises & wildlife a real asset. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Bridget

We just couldn't fault Rockhill Farmhouse. Four of us stayed there over Christmas, and we've already booked again for Christmas 2026 as it was so lovely! Spotlessly clean, superb quality fixtures and furnishings, and situated in delightful countryside. We certainly didn't want for anything. We all agreed that it was one of the best holiday homes we've ever stayed in. Many thanks Vaughan and Eileen for your wonderful hospitality

Jackie

Our stay at Rock Hill Farmhouse both met and exceeded our expectations . Lovely property, thoughtfully and tastefully presented, scrupulously clean and well equipped. We self cater so usually take a few utensils with us but had pretty much everything we needed provided. Vaughan is a friendly, pleasant host. While living in the property next door there was zero imposition and 100 support available both Vaughan and Eileen should be very proud of their delightful holiday property. The location and views are great too!

We had a very comfortable stay at Rockhill, the cottage was very cosy and warm and spotlessly clean with no attention to detail spared. Bring able to walk dogs in the paddock was a big bonus. Although very cold we even made use of the fire pit one night and enjoyed the night sky. Beautiful area to visit. Would highly recommend this cottage.

We absolutely loved our stay at Rockhill Farmhouse! The cottage was incredibly comfortable, and every detail had clearly been thought through with care. The only downside? Having to leave and return home, we wished we could have stayed longer!

Ursula

We had a wonderful stay at Rockhill Farm. The accommodation is stunning and elegant but yet comfortable and homely. It had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Vaughan and Eileen were great hosts and always close by for recommendations or a chat. Use of the EV charger was a huge bonus and Vaughan was very accommodating allowing us to charge when we needed. It really was the perfect place to explore the beautiful Shropshire villages and countryside. Would highly recommend this property and will hopefully return in the future.

We had a lovely stay in Rockhill Farmhouse. We were greeted by Vaughan when we arrived, we couldn't have been happier when he showed us the Farmhouse. It was super clean, great kitchen for rustling up dinner and comfortable bed, could not have asked for more. Great location for exploring. We cannot recommend Rockhill Farmhouse enough and would return in heart beat. Thank you Vaughan, Eileen and Monty for welcoming us. Ita & Pj

Jennifer

We have had a wonderful week at Rockhill Farmhouse. The property was perfect for us and our dog. Inside is so comfortable and has everything you could need. The outside space is also stunning with the most wonderful views. Its a great base for exploring Shropshire.

An outstanding property in a beautiful location. An ideal base for days out in Shropshire. We highly recommend Rockhill.

Great property, pictures do not do it justice. Has been done to a very high standard. Very nice and quiet, owner was nice and showed us around then left us to it. Loved the rural location and the chance to explore. Clun is a lovely village with a great sense of community. Beautiful sunrise views if you are awake early enough to see them.

Annemarie

We loved this beautiful property, a wonderful setting and very lovely property owner. We will have this property top of our list for future Shropshire stays. Thank You.

We enjoyed a very relaxing week in part helped by the fantastic weather but moreover the superb farmhouse with stunning views and a very high standard of cleanliness and attention to detail. The owner Vaughan was on hand if needed and a pleasure to chat to. The location is excellent for exploring the county of Shropshire but also across the border into mid Wales. Wed highly recommend Rockhill Farmhouse and intend booking a repeat holiday there.

Lived up to expectations, very comfortable, well maintained and equipped, and great position. Hope to return.

Vaughan the owner, is so lovely to talk to, and really helpful, going above and beyond what you would expect. When you walk into the property everywhere smells lovely and there are very thoughtful touches for the dog. I will be honest and say that a little bottle of milk or wine would have been a nice touch for the humans though! I would have no hesitation recommending this place, its so relaxing and tasteful and the surrounding area is beautiful.

Nicholas

Fantastic!!! !! Great hand over, so clean, tidy, everything you could need on your stay, comfortable and ideal with a dog even a hose to wash paws. Beautiful views and would definitely stay again.

Excellent property with fantastic facilities and views. Lovely friendly owners. Don't want to praise it too highly or everyone else will book it and there'll be no space to go again!

Fantastic!!! !! Great hand over, so clean, tidy, everything you could need on your stay, comfortable and ideal with a dog even a hose to wash paws. Beautiful views and would definitely stay again.

In a stunning Shropshire Hills location Rockhill is one of the very best cottages weve stayed in. High spec quality throughout, very helpful owner amid spectacular views and great walking trails. Highly recommended
