Stylishly well-appointed, characterful and intimate; three converted holiday cottages on a friendly, family-run private farming estate in the heart of the Shropshire countryside, just 20-minutes from the beautiful medieval county town of Shrewsbury. The onsite Spa and swimming pool are wonderful for that perfect relaxing break.
From the moment your first welcomed with complimentary home-made cake by Rachel and Gerry, the on-site owners, Burlton Cottages offer idyllic, unspoilt escapism - a perfect rural retreat. Open all year (arrive and leave on dates of your choice), bring the kids (cots, high chair and games available) and bring the dog (enjoy stunning country walks right from your door, with abundant wildlife every step of the way).
We were a family of four staying at the Courtyard /Burlton Cottages. Rachel was incredibly friendly and the cottage was well equipped and clean. We used the large swimming pool every day and also the simple gym and the sauna and jacuzzi (there's also a steam room). The onsite facilities were really top notch and we were very comfortable. It was well located for us to explore Shropshire over the course of a week and it was only 15-20 minutes to Shrewsbury, 40 minutes to Ironbridge and there were a host of other great places to visit (RAF museum, Hawkstone follies etc). We were new to Shropshir...more
We had a lovely stay. Really enjoyed being able to use the pool and spa every day. Very warm welcome with a delicious cake on arrival and enjoyed being able to buy fresh eggs from the owners. Lots to do in the area including Hencote winery and restaurant, lots of English Heritage sites and National Trust properties, plus it's not too far from the Welsh border for a day trip to Wales.
if you like a morning swim to start the day then this is the place. Hosts very welcoming and good location for seeing the sights of the area. Accommodation first class
