    Our stay here has been wonderful! It is our first visit and we were not disappointed! The cottage has been beautifully finished. Everything has been thought of to make your stay perfect.  Upon arrival there were fresh eggs and local ginger bread...

    The location is amazing - away from everyone. Peaceful and quiet. The cows were a bonus! The facilities were great, very comfortable and we slept well. The hot tub was amazing! The lodge was clean and very well presented, with nice touches...

    Owners were actually away at the time and we arranged for the keys to be left in the property. Unexpected milk and eggs were much appreciated. The Honesty Bar was something we had not come across before and thought it a great idea, even though...

Property information

The Shooting Folly is as unique a holiday home that we have ever come across. Standing in the middle of the Shropshire farmland and with views over fields over fields and woods, it is romantic as the setting. Dating back to the 19th Century, once believed to be an old shooting lodge, the building retains features such as crenelated mock church tower at one end, a stepped gable at the other, and a timber thatched cottage in between. To create a very homely hideaway, the house contains many mod cons, including a Cedar Hot Tub. Please note Charcoal BBQ available - only charcoal to be used due to Cottage being Thatched. The only bedroom features a double bed with views across the countryside, with a separate WC, and the kitchen is smart and made of solid oak with a granite work surface; it’s well equipped with electric hob, oven and microwave. Guests will be sure to enjoy their time at The Shooting Folly. Sorry infants only, no childrenPlease note Charcoal BBQ available - only charcoal to be used due to Cottage being Thatched.

Neighbourhood information

The Shooting Folly is on the edge of a small village, but a few miles from the totally gorgeous village of Cheswardine, which is relatively untouched and a typical Shropshire village. There are two pubs nearby, both recommended by the owners – The Fox & Hounds is two miles away and The Wharf Tavern sits right on the canal.
