The Granary in Shropshire receives high praise for its character, spaciousness, and welcoming atmosphere. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, cosy log fire, and the additional entertainment provided by a games barn. The property's rural charm and the owners' hospitality, including occasional welcome gifts, contribute to a delightful stay. While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the overall experience is one of comfort and enjoyment in a picturesque setting.
Cleanliness
Reviews consistently mention that The Granary is clean and tidy, with only a few isolated comments on minor issues. The positive remarks far outweigh the negatives, indicating a high standard of cleanliness maintained by the owners.
Location
The property is appreciated for its peaceful rural setting and proximity to local attractions and amenities. However, some guests noted the absence of a nearby pub and occasional noise from farm vehicles, slightly impacting the perfect score.
Comfort
Guests find The Granary very comfortable, with special mentions of cosy beds and a relaxing atmosphere. A few comments about the heat in the upper rooms and the quality of pillows suggest room for improvement, but overall, the comfort level is high.
Facilities
The facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen and games barn, are generally praised. However, some guests have pointed out maintenance issues such as the need for clearer labelling of fire escapes, updating the en-suite, and minor wear and tear, indicating that while facilities are good, there is some room for enhancement.
Thoughtfulness
Many reviews express gratitude for the thoughtful touches by the owners, such as welcome packs and the opportunity to engage with farm activities. While these gestures are highly valued, it is important to note that such personal touches may vary and are not guaranteed with every stay.
About this property
Church Stretton 7 miles. A superb semi-detached barn conversion, set on a working farm, in the peaceful village of Stapleton. Refurbished to a very high standard, this spacious and charming property retains a wealth of original character, including a woodburner and exposed beams throughout. The spacious, well equipped kitchen with dining area leads down 3 stone steps to a hallway featuring a wonderful oak staircase. The lovely master bedroom offers open access to the gallery and boasts a four poster bed. The charming towns of Shrewsbury and Church Stretton are within easy reach.
This huge hill is topped by a moorland plateau of heather and rocks and broken on the eastern side by a series of hollows or "batches". This is a popular walking area - ideal for exploring the Shropshire Hills. Church Stretton is the first town in Shropshire to receive Walkers Welcome status. Walkers Welcome towns are places which have something special to offer for walkers more than simply being a fantastic place to come an enjoy the great outdoors. The town also holds its own annual Walking Festival in June. In the Carding Mill Valley, there is a thriving antiques centre with over 60 stalls. This is open every day and nearby Acton Scott Historic Farm will give you a taste of 19th Century farming. There are attractions to suit every age and taste in this region, from the Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom to the historic Dudmaston Hall.
