I

Magnolia cottage is a really well presented and cosy place to stay. I visited in autumn and used the log burner in the evenings. The property is on a quiet street and easy to find. It had everything I needed for the weekend stay from a facilities perspective and was well positioned for me to access the hills of Caer Caradoc and Long Mynd. Church Stretton centre is a short walk away across the main road and a foot bridge at the train station.

Nothing - everything has been thought of for guests.

The cottage was beautiful, in its design and furnishings. It was homely, clean and just had everything we needed. It looks lovely, spacious, high spec furnishings, and just a great space to enter. Everything just felt wonderful here. Everything was catered for. Kids loved it. We all slept well. Peaceful, idyllic setting (and scenic bedroom window views), a very thoughtful host in how lovely the house was. It’s the best place we’ve stayed in on our holidays.

Nothing!

Magnolia Cottage was just perfect for us whilst visiting family in the area. Silvie and Mark have thought of everything for people staying in their cosy house. The best equipped self catering accommodation I have ever stayed in. The local area is lovely. We visited cafes and pubs and were welcomed everywhere we went. I really do hope to return some day.

The house is perfect so quiet and comfortable. The beds are exceptional, and we slept so well. Ideally positioned for the town and the wonderful hills even in the wind and showers we walked miles. There was a cake and lovely fresh milk along with some local beer in the fridge. Flexible check-in and out very easy with keypad.

For me the bed was a bit hard. My partner slept like a log. My daughter and partner in the back bedroom did have a squeaky bed.

It was like home from home. Everything you need. Cake on the table and beer and milk in the fridge. Ice blocks in the freezer. An abundance of bath towels and flannels and shower gels. Very quiet neighbourhood. Off road parking.

Absolutely nothing. We had a wonderful stay.

Clean, well maintained, central to amenities and to scenic area and yet quiet. Private parking and lovely private garden. Many extras provided by the hosts who were friendly and attentive.

The weather.

From the outside the house looks rather ordinary. Inside though; tasteful furnishings, very comfortable, and well equiped, with a lovely garden. Don't believe the photos - everything is even better than it looks.

One of the cleanest properties I’ve ever stayed in, couldn’t want for more it has everything you could possibly want, such a beautiful location and feels like home away from home - I couldn’t believe the whole thing was for us to use, it’s such a nice cottage. We absolutely loved it and will be back again!

Nothing to improve on.

The house was spotlessly clean, comfy and well appointed, we especially loved the log burner. The location is so handy for the train station and also Church Stretton is a charming town to visit. Sylvie couldn't have been a better host, she left us homemade cake, beers and coconut milk (all vegan after I notified before arrival our dietary requirements). The bathroom had lots of lovely body products which were all eco friendly. Sylvie let us have a late check out after I asked if it would be possible which was so handy for us travelling by train with two very small children. Couldn't recommend this place more. The price was also about half the amount it would have cost us to stay in Shrewsbury centre.

Wonderfully situated with off street parking. Very nice and warm, lovely cake on arrival and milk and beer. Good recycling facilities, and quiet yet near to amenities of Church Stretton

Our stay was excellent. The cottage has so much space, is wonderfully presented and has everything you need for a great stay. Like all the best self-accomodating places they provide small basics that just make a stay so much easier and better like kitchen essentials etc. The location is also excellent, close to the main area of Church Stretton and easy to access the rest of the Hills. Was excellent value and would recommend to anyone.

The provision of essentials and extras. Milk in the fridge, a homemade cake and tea bags for first night were especially welcome. As we were only staying 3 nights it was nice not to have to buy/bring items such as washing up liquid, kitchen roll, shampoo.

Not being able to stay longer!

Perfect little house within easy reach of the centre of Church Stretton. Warm and cosy with a nice garden for when it's a little warmer than November. All facilities available.

There was a manual on how to operate the oven, but manuals for other appliances would have been useful. A text to the owner about the heating went unanswered but we figured it out. A power outage was a bit of a shock but a quick call to the owner on where the fuse box was located provided the information we needed to fix the problem.

Convenient, well equipped, clean, off street parking a big plus. Cup cakes on arrival were delicious. Lots of little extras like a plentiful supply of tea and coffee, milk, pantry items and an array of toiletries were great. Lovely fireplace too!

Everything you need is provided and the hosts were generous in supplying over and above. Cereals and 1 liter milk, plenty of coffee, tea, sugar, salt, couple bottles of beer, and a homemade loaf. They also provide more than one bath towel, hand towel or tea towel. This place felt like they valued our booking. There is a washing machine and a drying rack with a room to put it up. It felt like a home away from home. Quiet, clean and comfortable. Water pressure was great. Own off road parking right at the door. Central to the amazing walking trails (or running) which you can walk to from the accommodation. The town center is a 3 minute drive and the train station is within walking distance. We loved our 5 day stay here and would highly recommend.

The cottage was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. The wood fire in the living room made it very cozy. It is just a short walk to local pubs and walking tracks

There was nothing we didn't like

Very convenient and comfortable accommodation. Everything provided and as advertised. Very easy to locate just off the main road and few minutes walk from train station which was nice surprise as we had a lovely day in Shrewsbury. Plenty of room, modern accommodation and parking on-site.

Noisy neighbours. No instructions for the heating system.

Location, comfort, so well equipped.

This was a return visit to Magnolia cottage and once again we were delighted with the quality of the accommodation. Thoughtful touches such as homemade cake and good quality toiletries reflect the care that the home owners take to ensure guests receive a warm welcome. Church Stretton provides the perfect base for a walking holiday and easily accessible day trips to Ludlow, Shrewsbury, Leominster and other local tourist attractions. We hope to return again in future.

There wasn’t anything that I didn’t like it was perfect for us.

It was beautifully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It was so comfortable and inviting from the decor to the beds.
