About this property

This lovely barn conversion with sauna and hot tub adjoins the owner's 17th century stone farmhouse, on a 220-acre arable farm, in the rural village of Alberbury, 9 miles from Shrewsbury. A wonderful Alberbury holiday cottage, this luxury accommodation offers some exposed stone walls, lovely bedrooms and bathrooms and a large living room with a full size pool table. Relax in the lovely hot tub, enjoy a sauna or an "all body shower", play pool or dine alfresco overlooking the garden pond with its waterfall and lights, which help to create a romantic atmosphere. This very special Alberbury holiday cottage is in an ideal location for walking through the Loton Park Estate's deer park, up Rodney's Pillar or along Offa's Dyke Path, or for visiting Powis Castle, the historic town of Shrewsbury, Ironbridge World Heritage Site and much more. This is the perfect Alberbury holiday cottage for a memorable family holiday or a romantic break in welcoming, luxury accommodation.

The small rural village of Alberbury sits in pretty countryside, 9 miles from Shrewsbury. There is so much to do in this area, from the ten museums of Ironbridge Gorge to the abbey, castle, shops and restaurants of Shreswbury. There are many National Trust properties within easy reach of Alberbury, including Attingham Park, Powis Castle, Chirk Castle and Erddig. Ludlow, with its castle and timbered buildings, is a lovely town for a stroll and a refreshing cream tea, or step back in time with a trip to Acton Scott Working Farm, seen on TV as ‘The Victorian Farm'.

    The property was clean and tidy in the right areas however did show signs of having had a long hard summer season but overall what a great place we all would highly recommend a stay.

  • Michael

    Perfect location for visiting Llangollen, Ludlow, Shrewsbury and Birmingham. Many more attractions locally too. Local hostelries are brilliant too, especially the Yockleton Arms. The facilities at the Sheep Shed were superb including a large hot tub. We had the chance to look at other properties on the site and they were equally well appointed, including a huge unit sleeping up to 14 people. Our hosts could not do enough for us, including advice for our then pregnant and very near term daughter about facilities locally if she could not make it to Walsall. We since have a beautiful granddaughter who will be coming with us next time as we will certainly be going back.

    They loved the hot tub! My parents had a wonderful stay as well, perfect for three generations under one roof.
