The Holiday Home: About The Olde Cow House, Shropshire Hills

4 bedroom barn conversion on a Shropshire farm near Church Stretton, with access to tennis court, children's play area and games rooms on site

Located in the tiny hamlet of Plaish not far from Cardington in Shropshire, this fantastic barn conversion sleeps up to 11 people in 4 spacious bedrooms. A great choice for a family gathering, the cottage dates back to the 16th century and is Grade II listed.

All of the 4 bedrooms vary in bed type and include three family rooms giving you plenty of options when it comes to sleeping arrangements. Original oak beams and brick and stone walls have been retained and give the cottage a real rustic feel while modern touches like the handmade oak kitchen with Belfast sink and granite worktops mean that the cottage has not been left in the dark ages. Prepare some wonderful meals and then serve them up in the large dining room before gathering in the sitting room for an evening together spent in front of the wood burner. Head outside to the full-size tennis court for a quick game or spend rainy days playing in one of the two games rooms. The children's play area will keep the kids happy while you can enjoy a good book on the patio in the garden.

Fantastic scenery is right on your doorstep, as there is a wonderful woodland walk and you can also enjoy the owner's private farm. Head into the village of Cardington if you feel like getting a pint at Shropshire's oldest pub while the Shropshire hills are a must for keen cyclists and walkers. After a long day of exploring this beautiful part of the country you will love being able to return to your own country cottage in the Heart Of England.
