  The cottage itself is very lovely.

  Is well equipped for everything you'd need for your week away. There's a welcome chalkboard with all the relevant information you'd need, however unlike 99% of Sykes Cottages there isn't a welcome pack ( ie tea, coffee or milk ) It's an incredibly easy place to keep clean if you take your four legged friend with and walks a plenty just up the road. However visitors should be aware you can't let your dog off a lead when in the 'garden' part of the property. So if you were to visit in the warmer months and wanted to sit out this is something to have in mind. Think it might be an easy fix on the owners behalf by putting gates at the entrances. We unfortunately didn't get a chance to meet Kate on our visit but she was more than helpful on the phone before we arrived and had we had any problems I wouldn't have hesitated in giving her a call and asking her help. Would recommend.

  We had a lovely week at Cranberry Cottage.

  It is really clean, comfortable and so peaceful. The weather was still quite chilly for springtime but the cottage was always really warm even without using the log burner. It is situated in a lovely area and we did lots of great walks including Stiperstones, Caer Caradoc and Carding Mill Valley which are all very close to Shelve. We had our dog with us and there is a grass area across the courtyard where he could be off lead but dogs need to be kept on lead whilst in the other areas. We would recommend bringing a good torch if you have a dog as it is very dark at night. We found the sofa's and bed to be very comfortable and the window looks out over the fantastic countryside with great views. We would recommend Cranberry Cottage and would definitely stay there again if visiting Shropshire.

  The pod was even better than we expected with everything we needed.

  Communication with Angie was great from start to finish and as there were no restaurants to eat out in at that time, the Miners arms offered to deliver pizza to us. The bed was extremely comfortable and shower facilities were fine. Everything was spotlessly clean on arrival and she had even provided a lovely bottle of Prosecco to welcome us. After long days out walking, the hot tub was very welcoming and was checked every day. We even managed to see some great sunrises (hence the name). Fantastic views from all sides and even though we did have neighbours, we didn’t hear a thing! We were very lucky with the weather and managed to see some great places nearby. We will definitely be recommending and hopefully returning again.

  Cranberry Cottage is hidden away in a beautiful part of Shropshire and the views are amazing particularly from the lounge / living room framed by a huge window.

  The cottage is modern, clean and well equipped for everything and the owner is there if you need her and was very welcoming, even to the point there was new garden furniture and because the weather was so good on first day, it was all laid out ready for me when I got back which was a nice surprise. Shelve has beautiful walks and woodland trails in the forest which I really enjoyed, some phone signals are not good there so if with O2 be mindful that you only have the WiFi for communication. I have rated top marks for everything, maybe a little welcome pack, milk, biscuits would be good as the shop is a drive away would add to the experience as with most sykes cottages.

  We have just had the best stay at Stiperstones pod!

  Angie was fab before, during and after our stay and provided all of the information we wouldn't have even thought to ask. The pod is set in a beautiful location, easy to get to and lots of lovely places to walk nearby. The pod was clean and very well equipped, we didn't need half of the stuff we brought along with us as it was already provided. Great place to bring your dog and very well secured to stop them escaping. The hot tub was lovely and where we spent most of our stay. We loved it so much we ended up booking an extra night and are already looking at booking another stay! Thank you very much
