Open plan living space.

Bedroom 2: Double (4ft 6in) Bed, Single (3ft) Bed
Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Toilet. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. . This spacious cottage is set on a working farm adjacent to the owner’s own home in Banks Head. It is surrounded by countryside, with the local market town of Bishop’s Castle just two miles away and is a perfect base from which to explore the surrounding Shropshire Hills, Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The cottage is surprisingly spacious throughout and benefits from gorgeous gardens and views. The entrance hallway is welcoming and full of charm, with plenty of space to be able to kick off those boots after a day out in the hills!
There is an open plan living room/kitchen space with comfortable seating, a TV, a round dining table and a modern, fully equipped fitted kitchen. Just off this room is a separate utility room with a door out to the small patio area overlooking the gardens. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom has a super kingsize bed, a dressing table and wardrobe. The other bedroom is a family room with a double and single bed. Both rooms are decorated in farmhouse style, with original feature fireplaces and garden views to wake up to.
With plenty of countryside to explore and places to visit, this cottage is the perfect base for your Shropshire stay. Find outdoor activities, enjoy walking, cycling the country parks, or spend a day at a local market town. For a day out, perhaps plan your trip around one of the many festivals celebrated every year in nearby towns, or indulge in the history – castles, country houses, museums, galleries and gardens.
Please note Bishop’s Castle is a small market town, larger towns with amenities such as large supermarkets, cinemas or McDonald’s are approximately twenty miles away. Bishop’s Castle has several good pubs which offer food, and 3 takeaways. I especially enjoy going to The Castle Hotel, The Three Tuns, Mellington Hall, The Lakeside and The Station Inn at Marshbrook. There are several local villages with similar offerings. The town has a small leisure centre, swimming pool and gym.
