Situated on the River Teme, in the outstanding countryside of the Welsh Marches, is the historic market town of Ludlow. Ludlow is a wonderful example of a medieval settlement and its ancient street patterns remain almost intact to this day. The town also hosts approximately five hundred listed buildings, making a settlement full of picturesque streets and providing a beautiful backdrop to the regular street markets. Showcasing a range of local goods, these gatherings are held in the shadow of Ludlow’s famous castle and supply items from cheeses and fresh produce to books and local crafts. With a number of Michelin Starred restaurants in the town, as well as numerous tea-shops, pubs and inns, there’s plenty to see and do in the diverse local area.

A E Houseman once wrote that Shropshire was “the quietest place under the sun” and today the county remains something of a rural idyll, recognised as one of the least crowded and most peaceful regions in England.

The situation, near the town centre, was really excellent, and just what we were seeking. The flat is full of character. <BR>Mrs Sampson, St Mars Du Desert, <BR>October 2013<BR><BR>,The location was great, and the place had a really homely feel. <BR>Miss Peatson, Leighton Buzzard, Buckinghamshire<BR>October 2013<BR><BR>,The location of the cottage was fantastic, and it was very well equipped with everything you need for a very comfortable and relaxing stay. I thoroughly enjoyed both the cottage and Ludlow. I hope to return soon.<BR>Miss Luck, Woking, Surrey<BR>October 2013<BR><BR>,The apartment was very quaint and unusual. It was great to have such a large kitchen with a separate spacious lounge.<BR>Mr Woulfe, London, <BR>April 2013<BR><BR>
