Wanted somewhere for a three-generation family to holiday and reinforce the bonds that tie us. Fairview by the Wenkin helped achieve this. Well equipped, open plan kitchen and dining area providing great family space. Opening to a lawned area with seating that swings to enhance those relaxing. Outdoor dining well catered for, barbeque conveniently at hand. Hot tub to the side a great favorite with grandchildren. Lovely bedrooms provide great flexibility to arrange sleeping most with bathrooms.
Terri
Property was lovely, very well equipped, clean and comfortable. Hot Tub was a great luxury. The hosts very welcoming, friendly and full of information for us. We had a great holiday, location was great for the Ironbridge museums, cycles on the Mercian way and Silkin Way, visits to NT and Historic England properties, Cosford Air museum and David Aus tin Roses, Vinyard tour, Church Stretton and Shrewsbury, and not forgetting walking up and cycling around The Wrekin. Thank you Vernon and Lynne!
Rita
Lovely house in an enclosed safe garden for children and dogs. Well equipped in house and garden. Only thing I would say if you like a walk to a pub for a meal this is too far away and up country lanes.
