Very comfortable. Good facilities nice linens. Setting is lovely and we always enjoy the peace.
A very comfortable and well furnished holiday cottage in a lovely rural location.
An outstanding property exceeding expectations at every turn Fantastic retreat with really comfortable furnishings and beds Having a bathroom/shower room with each bedroom is a real bonus The welcome hamper was locally sourced and of good quality Easy parking and access with enclosed area for dog Outside facilities are very useful to enjoy a bbq and take in the outdoor space Couldn’t find any faults with this property and it was spotless clean throughout I hope not too many people read this as we would want this one to ourselves Thank you to the team for arranging this stay within a matter of few hours of booking you really rose to the challenge
Lovely cottage in a delightful area, wonderful countryside. The house was beautifully appointed and in excellent condition. I highly recommend this cottage for a relaxing and comfortable stay.
It is a lovely location. Complete peace and tranquillity. The accommodation is very well kitted out. Good beds nice towels etc. A failing is the way the velum windows operate they are impossible to open & very difficult to close/open the blind. An electric system would be much better especially in the second bedroom which afteral has no windows!
Had a wonderful relaxing time. The Cart Shed was a great base to visit Shropshire. Lovely cottage, beautifully furnished and an ideal rural location.
Beautiful accommodation and surroundings. Spotlessly clean and great welcome pack. Unfortunately no shade during hot weather which spoilt the break. Requested a parasol on day 2 received (totally inadequate tiny parasol) after further prompting late in day 4 home day 5 - too little too late. Also skylight window’s didn’t open which made it difficult to get air in accommodation. Although enclosed garden, concerned about gaps in fence which would enable a small dog access to field with sheep. As a consequence the dog could not be left unattended in the garden.
Cottage was just what you’d expect from rural retreat accommodation- impeccably clean, well stocked and lovely comfortable furniture.
A lovely property. Well equipped. Lots of space. Great views and an award winning gluten-free fish and chip shop within a couple of miles. What could be better!
The Cart Shed was easily one of the best holiday homes we have stayed in. It was very clean, well equipped and located in a lovely position, very scenic and quiet. The Ludlow Farm Shop 10 minutes away and the Old Downton Lodge restaurant literally on the doorstep were both great. We were also provided with a really good quality hamper. We would definitely recommend this as a great stay!
Secluded modern barn conversion in gorgeous countryside. Owners have thought of everything for your comfort and convenience. Only drawback is access via single track roads with limited passing so you have to be a confident driver! Highly recommend the Old Downtown Lodge NEXT DOOR for dinner and Ludlow Farm Shop nearby for unbelievable locally made food, groceries and gifts.
Very peaceful and everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The plentiful supply of logs was very welcome. Weather was kind to us so even managed to sit outside. The meal at The Old Downton lodge was excellent as was the service.
It was a lovely property in a stunning location. Only issues were the door to the green bedroom shut very loudly, one of the curtain blind leads came off which my husband repaired but it had been cello taped up previously. Also I had thought ahead to take food for supper and was surprised that a note was left saying the majority of the welcome hamper would arrive Tuesday. Fran was quick to respond and when the tvs played up a very pleasant man was on the doorstep at 8am the next morning.
Excellent accommodation with great attention to detail . Patio furniture and gas BBQ was a nice touch. Lovely countryside and very good restaurant within sight
Alles was heel netjes en nog nieuw, net opgeleverd. Het is er heel rustig en het uitzicht is prachtig. De eigenaresse is erg aardig en behulpzaam. Fijne uitvalsbasis voor tochtjes.
Fabulous barn conversion and rural location. Very well appointed and equipped with delightful decor. We enjoyed staying in as much as going out.
The accommodation was of a high standard and was well equipped and spotless. The location is good, being off the beaten track in lovely countryside.
We booked the Cart Shed for a short break with my father in law who is 94, active and independent with some mobility issues. The accommodation was brilliant, accessible for him and plenty of space for us to relax together and have time apart too. High spec, outstanding location and a great base to explore Shropshire. We loved it!
Loved this place. Totally recommend it. So well done to such a high standard. Peaceful and quiet. Beds are so comfortable.
Fantastic cottage, beautifully decorated to a high standard, the owners really had thought of everything. Extremely clean and comfortable and very cosy in the chilly evenings. Had a very relaxing few days away, loved exploring the local area, found many good walks and excellent pubs! Will definitely return.
