After dinner, retire to the sitting area where a plush sofa, window seat and armchair await, providing a snug spot to curl up together in front of the Smart TV as the warmth of the woodburning stove and underfloor heating envelops you. Step out into the enclosed rear courtyard, beautifully lit with outdoor lights, where you can relax with a morning coffee or unwind in the evening with a drink on the comfortable patio furniture.

For an extra touch of luxury, indulge in a soak in the hot tub, the perfect way to soothe tired muscles after a day of exploring the local area.

The Cart House Reviews

Amazing from start to finish. From milk, eggs, scones and wine when we arrived to the offer of a later check out the morning we left. The farm is stunning and has everything you need. The hot tub is the biggest and most powerful I have had the pleasure of using, a real highlight! The surrounding area is full of natural beauty and the perfect location to visit Shropshire. Elsies tea room is a must!!!! The food is to die for. A huge thank you Victoria for a lovely time.
Without a doubt , the best cottage we have ever stayed in in 35 years of using holiday cottages. The quality of furniture is obvious everywhere. Everything is provided. You need not pack anything but clothes. The bathroom is a fully sealed wet room, ideal for people with disabilities but doesn't feel like it. The hot tub is enormous for two people. And completely private enclosed in a small suntrap. And Victoria is so helpful and attentive. Really cannot fault it. Didn't use the play barn but looked in. You would pay for entry to something like that standalone. And the dvd selection available to borrow is better than blockbusters used to have .
