The Workhouse Retreat

Hidden away down a country track, this beautifully finished stable conversion is perfect for couples looking for a romantic rural retreat, whilst immersing themselves in absolute comfort and luxury. Bordering the Shropshire Hills AONB, midway between the quaint towns of Ludlow (11mls) and Bridgnorth (12mls), it’s also a perfect location for getting out and about and exploring the delights of this stunning county, whether that be by foot, bike or car. Pick up the public footpath from the bottom of your garden, including the Jack Mytton Way which travels nearly 100 miles through Shropshire’s most beautiful and unspoilt countryside, Titterstone Clee Hill and Silvington Ridge. In nearby Kidderminster, enjoy a nostalgic and picturesque steam train journey at The Severn Valley Railway (15 mls), explore Kinver Edge and the Rock House, National Trust property (19.5 mls) or spend a full day visiting the UNESCO site at Ironbridge Gorge (21 mls) or West Midlands Safari Park (15 mls). The historic wedding venue of Hopton Court Estate is also less than 4 miles away.

On arrival, tuck into your tasty toasted teacake with butter and homemade jam, all sourced locally from Ludlow's Farm shop, washing it down with a wide selection of complimentary "Teapigs". This single level stable conversion, which once formed part of an historic workhouse, has been renovated to the very highest of standards, with every part of your stay carefully considered and curated to perfection. You enter into a colourful modern kitchen and dining space which has been fully equipped to ensure you rustle up that romantic meal for two. To the right of the kitchen is where you'll find the shower room and WC, complete with the beautifully smelling toiletries. Moving back through the kitchen into the living and sleeping space, you will really appreciate stylish interiors, aesthetically pleasing finishes and quality linens. A large sofa, and statement reading chair offers comfortable space for you to relax on those lazy afternoons, choosing from the selection of books in the property or by switching on the Frame Smart TV hung on the wall. When the evening draws in, slip into your luxury linen robes and nestle under the sheets, cocooned in the embrace of premium quality bedding, ready for the perfect night sleep! Every detail has been thought about, making sure you truly feel home away from home in this very special space.

Step outside on to your own private decked patio with rural views over the sun trapped garden. As you sip your morning coffee in the colourful rocking chair or dine al fresco in the bistro set for two, you may be lucky enough to spot the family of wild deer that wander freely through the grounds on a daily basis. When the sun starts to set, the sunken hot tub provides a haven for relaxation as you get lost to sound of birdsong or sit in awe of the starry night skies overhead. You also have access to the shared large lawn.
