Description

This beautiful red brick cottage is located on a small farm next door to the farmhouse. The cottage is situated on a private lane in the picturesque North Shropshire countryside, allowing guests to relax and unwind from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The front of the property is surrounded by a wooden fence with access gate and a large yard allowing a car to park right outside the front door.

The cottage maintains some of its original features from its past days when it was a cheese storage room. This blend of traditional and modern design creates a homely feeling, with a cosy wood burner to admire on cold nights
