The Barracks Cottage Reviews

Geoff
The cottage is great, tastefully decorated and all the facilities you need. The underfloor heating is very good
Christopher
Delightful property with friendly owners close to a shop and reasonable pub. Just be warned the property is close to the A49 and whilst with windows closed in October we were barely aware of traffic noise that might be a concern in warmer months if sleeping with open bedroom windows.
Helen
Wow such a comfortable and well equipped cottage with the most beautiful garden. Very easy to get to Ludlow and surrounding N.T properties and other lovely towns. We had a fab week there.
Caroline
We enjoyed a very comfortable holiday in a truly lovely cottage. It was set in a beautiful garden with easy parking. The owner was very welcoming and we found milk and a cake awaiting our arrival. The kitchen was very well equipped, with everything you could possibly need. This included dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, even a food mixer if required. The cottage was very comfortable and we were welcome to explore the lovely garden, complete with beautiful lily pond. The situation was ideal for exploring the local area and within easy driving distance to several National Trust properties. We enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend it.
Heidi
It is a beautiful house in a amazing setting. It felt so homely straight away and we felt comfortable and relaxed instantly. The owners were really friendly and made us very welcome. It's a good location for visiting places around Shropshire. The Salway Arms 4mins walk away is also really nice for a drink or meal.
