Perfect easy location (a stone's throw from the marvellous Poetry Pharmacy!), very cosy room and surprisingly quiet (the storm winds were louder than the town hall clock!). Really comfy bed. Nice touch to find a bottle of fresh milk in a little fridge in the room; with kettle & teabags so you can make yourself a cuppa. Breakfast was extra, but very reasonable and most delicious - with excellent coffee. Host sent information for entrance keypad, all really smooth and easy. All round a very lovely place to stay.

Spent a couple of nights here to walk the Long Mynd and explore the area. Kirsty and Chris were very welcoming when I met them on the second day. They had provided a hamper of goodies too, which was a wonderful bonus! Very relaxing, with a VERY COMFY bed. Loads of amenities, including a utility room for muddy and wet gear to dry out in! The bathroom has underfloor heating, which feels very luxurious. Car parking is well thought out, so you're out of the way of the farm vehicles. Very friendly cats!
Set in Church Stretton in the Shropshire region, Stunning cottage nestled under the Longmynd Hills. Features a patio and garden views.

Great location, lovely walk up to the longmynd hills. Close to carding mill as well. The cottage was really well done to a very high standard, lovely welcome basket with some essentials. Chris was great and gave some advice on local area, we recommend the Ragleth pub for food 10/10. Will def be returning to this gem.
It is perfect for a quiet getaway. Small but interesting town, with tons of good walks to do all around the area. It is worth going for a visit if only to spend several magical hours inside the wonders of the Poetry Pharmacy - but sshhhhh don't tell anybody! Plenty of good eateries - for fab home-made soup, the Bap (if its their birthday when you go, you get free cake!). In the evening the Tuns pub does excellent food - and beer if that is what you are into!

Lovely small town. Steep streets. Quiet (at the time we were there, March). Many pubs to choose from.
Not many general shops, but lots of places to buy greetings cards.
We ate at the Ganges restaurant and The Three Tuns pub, both recommended, but best to book. Very limited places to eat on a Sunday evening.

Was there on the Date of the Michaelmas Fair which was cancelled because of the passing of the Queen but there were still stalls and traction engines to see. Pubs and restaurants were open so plenty to do and see.

Stopped for one night but could have stayed longer. The restaurant in the hotel served lovely fresh food. Bishops castle is only a small village but has plenty of history. Look out for the elephants!

A small town I'm ashamed to say I had never heard of, but which offered a variety of interesting shops and tea rooms and other services. A very good base to explore the surrounding hills and even further afield.
A beautiful retreat decorated in a lovely boho style. Entry is through a tiny courtyard and glazed sliding doors. It is comfortable and spacious with a well equipped kitchen, including oven and induction hob. Up the staircase is a large attic bedroom with exposed wood beams, large window, and comfy double bed.
Situated on the edge of Bishops Castle, there is free parking on site and fabulous views across open countryside. Although only 5 minutes walk to the town centre, the town is set on steep hills.
Gerry was an excellent hostess, thoughtful, generous and kind and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel was welcoming and the accommodation and facilities were very good. Breakfast was excellent and substantial, we did not eat again until late evening. We would thoroughly recommend a stay at this hotel.
The breakfast was delicious and nothing was too much trouble. There was plenty to choose from including fresh fruit, full cooked breakfast and homemade marmalade and jams. There was homemade cake upon arrival and shortbread which was so tasty and just what we needed following our journey.
Lovely detached bungalow, spotlessly clean , in quiet street 10 minutes walk to small historic town of Bishops Castle. Handy for the several pubs/hotels. Neighbor next door was owner and he called in to see us and brought a bottle of wine. Lovely views too from the garden.
The Crown Inn is in a beautiful area of Shropshire a close distance to the amazing The Long Mynd. The Crown Inn is very clean, the staff is delightful and attentive, and the food is well prepared. It is the place to be if you want be in this area.
Breakfast not included. Good location on the high street. Parking just around the corner. A good base if you are on a family holiday I would have thought. Bishops Castle was very pleasant, especially the gardens up at the back of the Castle Hotel.
The novelty of having an entire pub to yourself makes this an unforgettable gateway. Spacious, well equipped yet homely. Dishwashers, ice machines, pool table, karaoke, hot tub….. they’ve thought of it all. Highly recommended! AND dog friendly!
Beautifully quiet, wonderful views, fabulous location both on site and within reasonable walking/driving distance of lovely Bishops Castle.
Clean, tidy pod. Clean, tidy shower block, toilets and kitchen. Welcoming and friendly host.
Perfect stay for myself, two children and a dog after a long walk along the Shropshire Way. Bedroom was warm and comfortable. Had fab dinner at the Three Tuns pub a minute walk away. Breakfast also excellent. Can highly recommend.
A lovely bed and breakfast run by lovely people. Warm and cosy, blissfully quiet, fantastic breakfast, and the whole family are so friendly. Bishops Castle is a delightful town and I can't wait to come back and explore it again.
The most welcoming and accommodating family. We really enjoyed meeting you all and your animals. Lovely countryside, stunning views and good walks. Thank you for letting us look around your farm.
Very comfortable and well equipped cottage close to the centre of Bishops Castle and with walks from the door. Good sized garden with garden furniture. Beautifully furnished.
