About this property

The Knoll Tower is a one-of-a-kind holiday cottage built in the late 1800s, situated on the Weston P

This stunning Victorian Hunting Lodge is a luxury self-catering bolt hole affording privacy for a relaxing break away.

Set over three floors, leading up to the top floor sitting room with panoramic views over historic parkland, the Tower combines all the home comforts that you would expect but in a unique historic hideaway.

Set on the far side of the Estate, The Knoll Tower benefits from the 1,000 acres of Capability Brown Parkland, Weston Park is a stately home, events venue, visitor attraction and luxury get away all rolled into one. At certain times of the year you will need to share the estate with a wide variety of events that take place in and around the Parkland. There are also times of the year where no events take place on the Estate so please click here to take a look at the calendar – you may even be planning to come along to one! The Shropshire/Staffordshire area also has plenty to explore with the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge Gorge and its famous museums, foodie destination Ludlow and historic Chester all within easy reach.

The Weston Park Foundation, the independent charitable trust who own and maintain the estate has given each property a new lease of life balancing comfort and modernity whilst remaining sympathetic to their extraordinary heritage thus providing a rare opportunity to stay in the heart of this historical estate.

The team in our 1767 Granary Restaurant will prepare your welcome hamper which will include milk, butter, eggs, cheese, homemade cake, freshly baked bread and a bottle of wine – all of which are sourced from food heroes that we work with both locally and further afield.
