Shropshire

Brushing up against the Welsh border, pastoral Shropshire has a sprinkling of hills, a smattering of castles, and a pack of charming towns filled with historic timber-framed and handsome red brick buildings. Ludlow is a highlight, home to the country’s first food festival, a handful of Michelin-recommended restaurants, and a heap of independent food emporiums. Stock up at the Farmer’s Market in Whitchurch, hop on the oldest funicular railway in Bridgnorth and row across the bird-filled Mere in Ellesmere. Dotted around this rural idyll you’ll find our collection of special places to stay, all hand-picked by our trusty team, to help you get the most out of your travels.
