A traditionally built shepherds hut with small kitchenette, wood burner, fold down table and double bed in its own garden area, overlooking the south Shropshire hills and the Wrekin. It’s on mains electric and water, and there’s a fire basket for sitting out on nice evenings and BBQs.
Set in the small hamlet of lower common, the area is quiet and rural, and yet only 6 miles from couty town of shrewsbury and 1 mile from nearest village of Longden, with a great shop stockng locally sourced produce, and pub that does great pizzas and breakfasts.
