Guests say
The Dairy in Shrewsbury is a well-received holiday cottage, praised for its tranquility, cleanliness, and cosy atmosphere. Guests appreciate the property's proximity to Shrewsbury and the helpfulness of the host, Donna. While some minor drawbacks were mentioned, the overall sentiment is that the cottage offers a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
The property is consistently described as very clean and well-equipped. One isolated incident of a glass with lipstick marks suggests a slight oversight, but overall, the cleanliness is highly rated by guests.
The location is frequently mentioned as quiet and close to Shrewsbury, indicating a high level of satisfaction among guests for the convenience and serenity of the setting.
Comfort is generally praised, with specific compliments on the well-furnished accommodation and comfortable bed. However, one guest noted the bed was not comfortable, which slightly lowers the score.
Facilities are well-regarded, with the property being well-equipped. Some guests experienced disturbances from laundry facilities and audible voices, and there were comments about the garden area and outdoor seating needing improvement.
While guests mentioned a welcome pack, there is not enough information to assess the consistency or quality of thoughtfulness across all stays. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

We did not want to leave! It is a large, well equipped, well furnished accommodation for two people. Absolutely loved it, Donna is such a lovely lady and nothing was too much trouble. I cannot rate this rental or recommend it enough and I have taken a number of Donna's business cards to pass onto friends and family. It is the least we can do to reflect an excellent place to stay in all respect. Thank you Donna and Ian and we hope to remain in touch.
