This peaceful part of Shropshire is popular with guests wanting to get back to nature with picturesque country walks in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), beautiful wildlife, and quiet country lanes.

Make your way to your rural retreat along the driveway which meanders through the beautiful gardens. Head into the property and through to the stylish and well-equipped kitchen/diner, making use of the delicious local produce you will come across whilst out and about. There is a cosy sitting room where you can relax in front of the wood burner effect electric fire and a separate snug which is ideal for anyone who wants a bit of time to themselves to get lost in their favourite book or play chess or backgammon. A twin bedroom completes the ground floor and up on the first floor is the king-size master bedroom as well as a bathroom with a large shower.

Outside, you’ll find a raised patio which has outdoor seating overlooking the beautiful gardens.

Absolutely loved it. Beds were comfy with lovely linen and choice of pillows. All spotlessly clean and uncluttered. Basics provided for and location perfectly calm and in nature. Local pubs and shops near enough to access - can walk to the nearest pub, but the cottage is quiet and serene. Would go back for sure.

My husband and I, along with our mongrel, spent a week at Butterfly Cottage, a comfortable and spacious home in a peaceful area that feels remote yet is within a short drive of several places of interest. There is a paddock where dogs can run around off lead, as well as walks nearby. Rob and Belinda, the owners, live next door and were very welcomiRead moreng, and there is an information folder in the cottage providing information about the area and ideas for days out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay Hide

We visited Butterfly cottage towards the end of the Summer holidays, two weeks after our wedding! The cottage is lovely and spacious. Butterfly cottage is comfortable and cosy with beautiful surroundings. The paddocks were a brilliant addition to the holiday with the ability to let our boisterous young labradors off the lead with no worries. The owRead moreners were lovely and welcoming. We were able to select vegetables from their lovely well kept grounds. Plenty to stay busy within a short drive. :) Hide
