Great location only a 5 minute walk to great pub who serve delicious food and a 30ish minute walk into Church Stretton. The hot tub was perfect and being in its own indoor setting we were able to use it despite the cold weather and winds. Our only complaint was the the shower; the shower screen didnât fit properly meaning water soaked the bathroom floor each time it was used. The shower head had to be held when used as when it was in its cradle it pointed directly at the shower screen and couldnât be directed away from it. Iâve never mopped so much on a weekend away. I would definitely book again if the shower was sorted out.
