Leys Retreat Reviews

Kathryn
We had a lovely week in this spacious property. The house was spotless and is in a good location with a short walk into Bishops Castle. It is a good base for exploring Shropshire. Ludlow and Shrewsbury are an easy drive, and there are castles and stately homes aplenty nearby. If taking dogs, check with owner re barriers for the back garden. Our dogRead mores found a gap in the rear hedge, so would recommend supervision at all times! Hide
James
Every imaginable piece of kitchen equipment you could want. Nice village with plenty of pubs and places to eat. Lots to do in surrounding area.
