There is easy access to major road networks, A5,A49,A458, and to the surrounding beautiful countryside with numerous public footpaths. Good road access to the South Shropshire hills, Ironbridge and Wales.

About the host
Hosted by Nora and Simon Richards
Hello, we are Nora & Simon Richards and have lived at Hanley House since 1993. This used to be the farmhouse associated with a large farm. A few farm buildings close to the house remain, of which two are of traditional brick and tile, but were in a very sorry state.
One was the Coach House with hay loft and stable and the other was a workshop/smithy with a granary above. We decided to develop these as purpose designed holiday cottages, which became available from 2005 and have ever since provided enjoyable breaks for people from all over the world !
We run the cottages ourselves and also look after the gardens, which are often commented upon by our visitors. We get great satisfaction from reading our visitors' comments and we are delighted that 5 star ratings are the norm !
