Drifthouse

About this property

Resting on the rural outskirts of Church Stretton, a popular market town in the heart of Shropshire, lies the delightful, three-bedroom holiday home of Drifthouse. A tasteful barn conversion boasting off-road parking, a collection of well-appointed interiors, complete with thoughtfully-preserved exposed beams and original features, as well as superb views gazing out upon the brilliant Caradoc Hills, this wonderful home makes a perfect base for a family or group of six friends looking for a relaxing, self-catered getaway in the marvellous Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Park up off-road next to your home-from-home and take a moment to breathe in your peaceful new setting. Inside, be greeted by an array of well-presented living spaces, including a fully-equipped kitchen/diner where delicious, home-cooked dinners can be prepared and savoured, a utility housing a washing machine to keep your clothes fresh and clean throughout your stay, and an inviting sitting room with seating, a Smart TV, and an elegant woodburning stove, which serves as the true social hub of the home. As day rolls into night, head upstairs to refresh with an indulgent bath or a rejuvenating shower before you catch your precious rest in one of the three bedrooms, including a king-size with accompanying en-suite shower. If you can tear yourself from your lovely new lodgings, head out to explore what your local area has to offer. A brief car trip will bring you into the centre of Church Stretton, where you can start the day with a spot of tea at Hollybush Cafe, amble through the serene locales of Rectory Wood or the Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd nature reserve, enjoy breathtaking views from the scenic point of Ragleth Hill, or even partake in a round of golf at Church Stretton Golf Club. Further afield, explore more of the AONB by stopping by the historic landmark of Flounders' Folly, traverse the many hills and pathways of the Nipstone Rock Nature Reserve, or ascend to the summit of The Lawley for unrivalled views of the Shropshire Hills. Enjoy all of this and so much more by booking Drifthouse.
