Riverdale Cottage in Shrewsbury is highly praised for its tranquil riverside location, comfortable furnishings, and attentive host, Grace. Guests enjoy the wildlife, the proximity to local attractions, and the well-equipped property. The large balcony and garden are standout features, offering relaxation and scenic views. While most reviews are positive, a few mention minor cleanliness and maintenance issues.
The majority of guests find the cottage to be very clean and comfortable, with only a couple of isolated comments about minor cleanliness issues such as dust and an unclean oven. These seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
The location is consistently lauded for its beauty and convenience, being close to Shrewsbury town and within walking distance to pubs and shops. The riverside setting is particularly appreciated for its tranquility and wildlife.
Guests find the cottage to be very comfortable, with spacious rooms, cosy furnishings, and a warm atmosphere. The property is described as a 'home from home', indicating a high level of comfort.
The property is well-equipped with everything needed for a pleasant stay, including bikes and a well-stocked kitchen. However, there are a few mentions of maintenance issues such as problematic Wi-Fi and the state of the bicycles, which slightly lower the score.
Grace's thoughtfulness is frequently mentioned, with guests appreciating the welcome pack and other gestures. While these gifts are warmly received, it is important to note that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed with every stay.
Riverdale is an exquisite cottage placed idyllically on the banks of the River Severn, just a 10 minute walk from the centre of Shropshire's county town, Shrewsbury. Benefiting from high-quality fittings, two en-suite bedrooms and much to see and do in the immediate area, this a sublime holiday home, perfect for a memorable holiday with your loved ones. Enter the property through its bright and spacious hallway which leads you into the kitchen/diner, immaculately finished with stylish fixtures and fittings, a contemporary dining table and views to the river which even make the washing up a delight. The large sitting room rests at the other side of the hallway, offering a cosy and social spot to spend your downtime watching your favourite shows. This property can also accommodate those with limited mobility as the ground floor also plays host to a stunning super king-size bedroom, zip/link for flexibility and benefiting from a spectacularly unique en-suite. Take the elegant spiral staircase up to the first floor under the eaves, the large landing houses a double sofa bed for any extra guests wishing to stay. Up here you will also find two further tastefully decorated bedrooms, one en-suite, as well as a glistening family bathroom. Appreciate your setting in the right way by taking a seat on your private decking and simply admiring the picturesque views, a river on which you can fish if you own a rod license. Shrewsbury, a market town brimming with character, is a fabulous base for your Shropshire break as it showcases some incredible buildings including the abbey and castle, as well as a multitude of high-quality amenities. Nearby you can venture into the breath-taking Shropshire Hills AONB, or discover some fascinating history in Ironbridge 15 miles east. A wonderful cottage in a lovely location.
