Situated on the River Teme amongst the countryside of the Welsh Marches is the market town of Ludlow. With nearly 500 listed buildings, Ludlow's medieval street pattern remains almost intact, providing a unique backdrop for the town's street markets. These events take place beneath the impressive castle and showcase a range of local goods - from cheeses and fresh produce to books and crafts. Ludlow is renowned for its shopping, with a number of high quality antique and craft shops, along with several Michelin-starred restaurants, numerous tea-shops and pubs. The castle itself is over 900 years old and the Linney Riverside Park provides boat hire, a putting green and children's play area. Ludlow is within easy reach of Church Stretton, Shrewsbury and Hereford, as well as popular attractions such as Ironbridge Gorge, Severn Valley Railway and Berrington Hall.
Reviews
"Firstly great directions from owner on finding cottage always good start. Parking for three cars brilliant saving on car park charges and not too far walk into Ludlow, 10-15 minutes, slight hill. Bright and full of light, nice sized kitchen, cozy lounge a toilet downstairs and bathroom upstairs. Heating on if needed and nice towel rail in bathroom. Plenty hot water, bath and shower available. Provided bedding and towel but if visited again would bring own pillow as quite hard, personal taste not criticism. Could have done with a spare extra towel as 5 nights. Brilliant to chill out in evening with feet up, recliner settee, after returning town. Great to have freedom to come and go as please. Owner Phil very helpful popped round on first night explained how use TV Freeview bit tricky. Great base for exploring Shropshire, went to Ironbridge, Church Stretton, NT properties and Hereford. So many wonderful restaurants to choose from in Ludlow and all accessible by foot so even better. Brilliant to discover Queens(foodie pub) up top hill. If intend to do cooked breakfast bring own oil and ketchup everything else provided."
"Booked the cottage for 4 nights for short break in July. Ideally placed just outside Ludlow Town Centre, only a 10 minute walk away, with everything you could need. We didn't use the car at all when we were there, preferring to walk in and around the town. Phil, the owner, was great and it was reassuring he was only next door if we had any issues, which we didn't. I'll certainly be booking again as there is so much more to explore in this area and this cottage is the ideal base."
"Having read some of the other reviews I realise that most of what I wanted to say had already been written. However on the trip home it came to me that I had not written in the Visitors Book so I am hoping to redress that oversight here. We were a small party of myself my brother and my dog. We all felt at home immediately. The cottage was beautiful and even though there was a busy road and a railway nearby neither effected us. We did not make much use of the large enclosed yard, but on our next trip we intend to have a BBQ using local sausages & meats. A very enjoyable stay, beautiful surroundings, wonderful cottage, pleasant unobtrusive owner all made for a truly terrific holiday."
"A great base for enjoying all that Ludlow and the surrounding area offer. Manor Cottage is comfortable, clean and well equiped and only a hop, skip and jump from the town centre which means that you can forget the car and walk to all the great cafes and restaurants. The cottage is very dog friendly with tiles from the front to back door and a secure, fenced backyard. Ludlow also has a number of bars and eateries that permit you to take your dog inside. If you are not a dog owner don't let the fact that this property allows pets to put you off, there are no doggy smells. Highly recommended."
"We loved this cottage, it had everything we needed to for a great week in Shropshire. The location was ideal, just a few minutes walk into Ludlow where there is an abundance of restaurants, cafes, shops, pubs, walks and a castle ! The cottage offered comfort, warmth, plenty of hot water and all the bits and bobs you need except for a set kitchen turning tongues - which bought at the discount shop in town. We hope to stay again in 2015."
"The landlord Phil is wonderful. The location in a few minutes from town. The cottage is very comfortable and immaculate. Off road parking for 3 cars. Garden furnature to sit outside. Quiet location. If I could live there I would!"
"Stayed for a week in April. The cottage was comfortable, warm and quiet with everything we needed. Everything worked well and the sofas were exceptionally comfortable for evenings in. The owner was friendly and helpful and all arrangements worked flawlessly. Highly recommended."
"Comfortable beds with crisp white bedlinen, a sun filled kitchen, a modern bathroom with a deep bath, a cosy snug for evenings and off street parking. We were so pleased with this rental, we could walk into town, the dogs were safe in a fenced back garden and parking was never a problem. The house itself is detached and has been modernised to a high standard. The electrical goods were Bosch or equivalent high quality, a digital radio and a good barbeque were amongst the extras that the owner had no obligation to supply but had, which seemed typical of the generous feel of the house. I hope to stay there again."
"The location was great! Eight minutes to walk to town and six ,imutes to walk back down the hill. Car parking space was a real boon as there was no other off-street parking nearby.The house was modern, delightfully decorated and well equipped. Given the proximity of the road and railway,our fears about noise were unfounded. The linen was spotless and the beds looked very pretty and the bed we used was very comfortable. We had some difficultywith the low ,modern settees but we discussed this with the owner, who lived in the adjacent bungalow and he agreed that they should be changed. Ludlow is a beautiful place and we look forward to returning -hopefully to Manor Cottage!"
"Really nice clean cottage. Only a five minute walk into the centre of Ludlow. Owner was very helpfull, whilst not intruding at all.Lots of National Trust properties nearby. Lots of lovely restaurants in Ludlow. All the locals very friendly. Would definetley stay again. One of the nicest cottages we have stayed in."
"Great cottage, very clean and comfortable and only 5 minute walk into centre of Ludlow. Owner friendly and very helpful. Would not hesitate in booking for another visit."
"The house was excellent, the rooms very clean and comfortable. I would reccomend it to each of my friends and neighbous, if they ask me for."
"Excellent service from the booking agency and also the property owner, who made us feel very welcome. The property is very comfortable, contemporary and well designed and equipped. The amenities in Ludlow are superb; shopping is very good, excellent restaurants and cafes and the tourist attractions in particular the castle are superb. Ludlow is situated ideally for touring the Welsh borders as well as the lovely county of Shropshire. The cottage was a lovely base to come back to after sightseeing or after an evening out, its location isn't exactly rural and it is in a built up area but nevertheless the surrounding area can be seen from the cottage and it is extremely close to Ludlow centre."
