Bicton Lea is consistently praised for its stunning views, spaciousness, and peaceful surroundings. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, clean and comfortable rooms, and the added luxury of a hot tub. The property's idyllic location and the thoughtful touches by the hosts contribute to a memorable stay, despite some minor maintenance issues and heating inconsistencies.
Guests frequently commend the property for its cleanliness, with several reviews highlighting the immaculate condition upon arrival. The attention to cleanliness contributes significantly to the overall positive experience.
The location is highly praised for its beautiful countryside, peacefulness, and stunning views. The property's seclusion adds to the charm, although one review mentioned a desire for more privacy from the owner.
The majority of guests find the property comfortable, with special mentions of comfy beds and a warm, cosy atmosphere. However, a few guests noted issues with heating consistency, which slightly impacts the comfort score.
Facilities are generally well-received, especially the hot tub and well-stocked kitchen. Some reviews, however, point out minor maintenance needs and suggest improvements, such as full fencing for pets and more drawers for storage.
While many reviews express gratitude for the welcoming touches and the provision of amenities like firewood, there is no explicit mention of gifts. Therefore, it is not possible to accurately assess the thoughtfulness based on gifts, and this score is set to null.
Clun 2 miles. Bicton Lea is a beautifully finished large stone house located near Clun and the beauty of Clun Valley. The accommodation provides a high-quality location for two families or a large group, a luxurious base for a holiday in the Shropshire Hills. The ground floor has a large kitchen with breakfast bar, amply sized and fitted out to cater for your full complement of guests. The dining room stretches into the conservatory and has seating facilities to match your party size. If seated dining is too formal, there is a separate TV room designed with viewing pleasure in mind with its outsized wall-mounted television and three seater recliner sofa. The sitting area is large enough for your full group, with two luxurious L-shaped sofas to sit around the woodburner fire and look out at the stunning views. There are five bedrooms on the first floor; one king size, three doubles and one twin. The beautifully maintained lawns lead you out to a property highlight, a summer house with outdoor hot tub, perfect for relaxing on warm sunny evenings. Or for those not keen on the bubbles, a large patio picnic table is located outside. If you can tear yourself away from your luxurious base, two miles away is Clun where you can have a pub meal or picnic near the river and castle ruins before embarking on the Clun Valley Heritage Trail. There are half a dozen Walkers are Welcome towns in the vicinity, of which Clun is one, but if you fancy heading further afield then the charms of Ludlow are a 20 mile ride away. Bicton Lea is ideal for large groups or two families to have a high-quality, peaceful base for a holiday in the Shropshire Hills.
