1 Bed Cottage in Bucknell

About this property

Sat close to the Shropshire and Herefordshire border, this beautiful rural retreat is perfect for couples with or without dogs looking for an idyllic country escape in true comfort and luxury. The hamlet of Letton is surrounded by the larger villages of Leintwardine, Bucknell, Knighton and Presteigne, all within a 13-mile radius and offering local amenities and a large selection of quality pubs and restaurants. When you're not indulging in the peaceful surroundings of this pretty farm, explore the great outdoors from your doorstep; whether that's a stroll through the surrounding countryside or a more adventurous hike/cycle along the scenic trails of Offa’s Dyke. A short drive from the stunning Shropshire Hills means you're never short of somewhere to explore, and for the history buffs, visit the thriving medieval town of Ludlow or nearby historic sites such as Berrington Hall (15 miles), Croft Castle (10 miles) and Stokesay Castle (11 miles).

Upon entering the semi-detached granary conversion, guests are greeted by the convenience of a downstairs cloakroom and utility space, equipped with a washing machine, tumble dryer, and a separate WC with basin; providing the perfect retreat to shed outdoor attire and clean the dogs before retiring to the inviting living spaces. Ascending to the upper level, guests discover the heart of the home - a spacious open-plan living and kitchen area exuding warmth and character through exposed beams and a focal point wood burner, ideal for intimate evenings. Guests can unwind with the provided books, games, or entertainment on the Smart TV complete with Sky and Netflix, all included. The well-appointed kitchen, boasting high-quality appliances and picturesque rural views, offers ample space for culinary pursuits, enhancing the pleasure of cooking romantic meals together. After a day of exploring, the luxurious king-size bedroom awaits, complete with a sumptuous en-suite bathroom, ensuring ultimate relaxation and comfort.

Venturing outside the property into the outdoor seating space, guests can savour alfresco dining or simply bask in the sunshine while admiring the surrounding vistas. With designated areas for pets and a secure 5-acre field allowing them to roam freely, everyone can revel in the outdoors together. Guests also have use of the spacious communal garden and grounds. This beautiful retreat with an emphasis on quality guest experience, provides couples and their furry companions an opportunity to reconnect with nature amidst the rural splendour of Shropshire, far from the hustle and bustle of urban life.
