Curlew Cottage is a delightful, semi-detached barn conversion adjacent to the owner’s home and is situated near the village of Hope, surrounded by wonderful countryside views.
From the outside, this cottage retains its original charm, with steps from the parking area. Inside, guests will enter the cosy country kitchen, home to all those essentials you may need during your holiday. Stone walls follow you as you wander into the living room, where you can relax on the sofa come night-time. A shower room completes the ground floor. Take the stairs from the living room up to the kingsize bedroom with exposed beams. A single bedroom accessed off the double with a sloped ceiling and Velux window completes the accommodation. The small, enclosed patio garden is perfect for resting in the sun, next to the colourful flowers and plants.
Located off the beaten track, Curlew Cottage is nicely tucked away in a peaceful, rural setting within the lovely Shropshire Hills. The surrounding area is rural, with impressive landscapes and wonderful walking trails all around. There are plenty of interesting things to do in the area with the National Trust, Powys Castle, Wroxeter Roman City, and the museums at Ironbridge nearby. Shrewsbury is full of life and things to be discovered. The café culture, weekly farmer’s market, the castle, and lots of attractive independent shops are just under a 30-minute drive.
Further afield takes you to the medieval market town of Ludlow, famous for its castle as well as many food and drink festivals throughout the year to enjoy. A delightful location that can be enjoyed throughout the year. Please note there are two gates and a single track on your approach to the property, which is about 150 metres long. Guest dogs can use the grassy area at the front of the property on lead only. The fields surrounding the property are not owned by the owner of this property and are always occupied by sheep so dogs cannot be exercised off the lead in them.
