About this property
A charming detached lodge resting in the countryside landscapes of Bicton near Clun. Wander past the natural views and into this cosy little hideaway, perfect for couples or friends. First, you will come to an open plan living, kitchen and dining area, ideal for preparing your favourite dinner time meals, before sitting back in the comfortable armchairs to enjoy the spectacular uninterrupted views of the Clun valley. A woodburning stove is tucked into the corner, and this room creates a soothing atmosphere for an afternoon reading session. The kitchen is laced with bright lights and decorated with heritage colours throughout which projects a quality overtone from start to finish.
Take the stairs and you will arrive at a contemporary styled bathroom with attractive features throughout. This leads round to a double bedroom which holds a calming feel and looks out over the garden. A super king-size bedroom is adjacent to this, with a far-stretching window backdrop of open fields and greenery. To the outside of the cottage, lies a lovely gravelled area with furniture, so that you can enjoy a glass of wine, close to the enticing scenery. If this isn't enough, why not take a soak in the lovely hot tub while you admire the views. Further afield, the village of Clun will bring you an abundance of wildlife, and beautiful unhindered walking and cycling routes to enhance your stay.
You can also enjoy exploring the historic towns of Bishop's Castle, Presteigne, Ludlow and Shrewsbury. This retreat is a wonderful escape in a dreamy location.

Colin
The lodge was a perfect get away in beautiful Shropshire with fantastic views and surroundings. The lodge was spacious, well equipped with all that we needed and the log burner made it even cosier, boy it can throw out some heat! At the end of the day, to wind down with a glass of wine in the hot tub was a must and perfect for a bit of stargazing. We even had regular visits from the owners cat, he made himself quite at home and we loved it. :-) Thomasina was lovely and on hand if needed but other than that she left us to it. We can't recommend Bicton Lodge highly enough and we'd love to go back, which we're hoping to later in the year.
