Dating back to the 1600’s, originally a dairy farm and now a beef, cattle, and sheep enterprise, this setting makes the ideal location for a holiday. This restful shepherds hut retreat has its own private bathroom facilities and is located in the owner’s breathtaking valley gardens. It is beautifully furnished and nestles at the foot of the glorious, majestic Wrekin Hill. In an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Morrells Wood Farm is ’that perfect get away!’ Indeed, many regard the views from this vale of tranquillity as ’little Switzerland’, and as its name sake, the panoramic scenery is stunning. The central location makes it the perfect base if a day or two exploring (or longer) is on the agenda. If not, then simply enjoy Mother Nature at its best whatever the season. Shropshire is a beautiful county, which is becoming more and more popular with tourists, with towns like Much Wenlock, Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth and Ludlow, which are all easy to get to from Morrells Wood Farm. The relaxed pace of countryside life is complemented by a huge amount to see and do. You can enjoy Ironbridge Gorge and its museums or a trip to Wroxeter Roman city and the nearby vineyard. There are 4 National Trust properties within an hour’s drive, the closest being Attingham Park, then Powys Castle, Chirk and Dudmaston are slightly further afield but make for a great day out exploring the Welsh Borders. Ludlow Castle, food centre and racecourse, the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre and Acton Scott working farm are all popular tourist attractions. The Glider Centre on the top of the Longmynd and Cardingmill valley are not to be missed, and for the more adventurous there are nearby outdoor attractions from quad trekking, mountain boarding, zip wire, high ropes, clay pigeon shoots and archery. Shop 3 miles, restaurant and pub 1¼ miles.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful home from home. The private garden was perfect and we spent a lot of time there. The location was remote and peaceful but close to everything. We also enjoyed the circular walk around the farm perimeter. We will be back

Lovely accommodation in the middle of nowhere! Birdsong is all you hear apart from an occasional tractor or dog barking. The Shepherd's lodge has all you might need though it would have been nice to have had some comfier chairs at the dining table.

Lovely location down a very quiet country lane in a farm setting. Walks from property and plenty of places to visit close by. Cottage is well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Good pubs close by.
