"Folly Foot Barn was a home from home. Very comfortable and warm and situated in lovely countryside. I enjoyed cosy evenings in in front of the log burner and slept well in a comfy bed. Peaceful and quiet location. The owner is dog friendly and made me very welcome too. Hope to visit again in warmer weather."

"The cottage was very warm and comfortable - a 'must' in the winter. It was lovely to talk to the owner and her dogs, see her horses and enjoy the eggs from her hens. "

"The cottage was stunning, spacious and full of an opulent peaceful atmosphere. The bed was unimaginably comfortable. It is rural but with main roads to all points two minutes away. The village is small and pretty with a welcoming pub, post office and shop. The owner is very welcoming, helpful and always on hand for advice."

"The description of the property was extremely accurate. It was set in a beautiful and quiet place even the owners house was next door. It is a haven for someone who is looking to escape from it all and although we do not own dogs or have horses it did not matter at all. "

"It was in a secluded area yet you had access to most of Shropshire. The cottage itself was modern yet had a old fashioned feel. The owner was very accommodating in ensuring you had everything you needed, and also advised on the most interesting places to visit. Would have no hesitation in recommending this as a must go to place to visit. Loved it."
