Meadow Barn Reviews

Rebecca

A super place to enjoy a rural escape. The kitchen was well equipped and the hot tub privately appointed and clean. A lovely long weekend.

A beautiful place to stay made even lovelier with the Christmas tree being there. Attention to detail with the decor & furnishings were faultless. Hot tub superb. Need to offer more availability of hot water and heating to make the stay more comfortable.

A lovely stay at meadow barn, clean and tidy with all facilities that you need for a fabulous stay. The hot tub was amazing, nice to have a relax after a day visiting the area. I would recommend the barn for a few days away to the area at anytime.

Norman

Everything was just perfect. A wonderful relaxed week even with storm Babet! Hot tub was the icing on the cake, used it virtually every day apart from Babet day.

We have stayed at several Sykes Cottages sites over the years but this is with out a doubt the best we have stayed at. Linda The Owner welcomed us and was extremely informative on the best places to eat and visit. They were all extremely good. The accommodation is extremely clean and well finished. The hot tub is great and very private.Being left flowers and a bottle of wine is a great welcoming gift. The views across the fields whilst sat on the terrace are amazing. If you wish to stay in Shropshire , this is the place to stay.

Patricia

Superb barn renovation . Really warm welcome when we arrived . Such a peaceful retreat . Pat & Alan

We had a very relaxing stay at Meadow barn. Linda the host met us on arrival and gave us details of cottage but also locally what was available which was really helpful. She was lovely, and later in the week showed us around her garden and other house she hires. . A bottle of wine and flowers were in the kitchen

Fabulous cottage well equipped. Nice warm welcome from the owner. Plenty of info about places to visit etc. So very peaceful and quiet.

Meadow Barn is wonderful. Clean, comfortable and has everything you need and more. The hot tub was just what we needed each evening after our walks. Linda is a great host and we will be back.

Robert

Really good barn conversion and comfortable accommodation. Nice and quiet for a relaxing holiday. Red kites, bumblebees, butterflies and even the sheep added to the entertainment. Very convenient to get bus from Craven Arms to Shrewsbury or Ludlow and all stops in between. Would come here again.

Beautifully clean cottage with everything you need for a week away. It was lovely lying in the hot tub watching the swallows,swifts and red kites.And the views from the balcony across the Shropshire countryside were wonderful.

Jennifer

I've already provided feedback to Linda. But we had a most enjoyable stay which was largely due to the fabulous weather and the wonderful hot tub. The cottage was peaceful with a small garden and was very clean and comfortable. Shropshire is beautiful with many places to visit.

Malcolm

Comfortable property in quiet country location. Views over hills from upstairs lounge. Ideal location for walking in Shropshire Hills. Free car parking in nearby Craven Arms ideal for using local bus service to Shrewsbury and Ludlow. Fryer Freeman fish and chips in Craven Arms recommended. Very nice to receive flowers and wine on arrival but felt that a small bottle of milk would have been most welcome. Host very friendly and met us on arrival.

Glenys

Absolutely beautiful Barn we felt we could have moved in forever. It was so clean and comfortable and Linda was so nice. The beautiful flowers and bottle of wine was a lovely surprise.We were ready for a chilled out holiday and thats just what it was. The hot tub was ready and waiting for us. Beautiful garden to sit and watch the Red Kite. Thank you.

Lovely location, beautiful property with everything you need to have the perfect holiday there was even flowers and a bottle of wine waiting for us on the table, The hot tub was amazing, the views were amazing and the owner Linda was so lovely, we would highly recommend giving Meadow Barn a visit, we didn't want to leave. Thank you Linda for making us feel so welcome. We will be back.

Lovely little cottage, within a barn conversion, on a site with other holiday lets. Upside down living with lounge upstairs overlooking the fieldsviews. The french door were open most of the time. Patio set outside to sit and relax and hotub if you so wished. We did not use. Very clean and comfortable with everything provided. Linda, owner, was about if needed but not at all intrusive. We are very familiar with the area and the positioning was ideal for us. Easy access to Craven Arms, Clun and Ludlow. With lots more places a little further if you like to adventure. Plenty of walks around and a nice walk around the fields next to the cotrage. Supermarket in Craven, tuffins, well stocked. Chip shop and take a ways too. Nice food at the Plough, Winstanstowe and The white Horse, Clun. Plenty of other inns around the area. Lovely and peaceful with the sound of the countryside around. Maybe benefit from a few leafletsinformation about the area for those not familiar.Nice peaceful break. Thankyou for the wine and flowers too. A lovely touch.

Hollie

Our stay at Meadow Barn was fantastic. The cottage is excellent and Linda is great. Lovely location, plenty to do near by. We spent the days exploring local towns and National Trust locations and the late afternoons in the local pubs, The Kangaroo food was lovely and Robinsons Cider is next level!, The Crown hilarious bar lady and good gin selection. Of course we had to visit the three tuns for drinks and food 1010. Evenings in the hot tub watching the sunset on the fields. A great time was had.

Courtney

Linda who runs it all is lovely & kind. Accommodating in every way. The cottage was clean and tidy on arrival & it was just a perfect way to spend my birthday

Sheila

Meadow barn was very comfortable, with plenty of space for two people. The outside space was well designed and the hot tub was excellent. Linda and Charlie were friendly and helpful and the setting of the property couldnt be better.

Doreen

We enjoyed our break and having time to ourselves. Chilled, enjoyed the hot tub and bottle of bubbly.

Simply couldn't have been better! Will definitely return.

Robert

We had a great holiday at Meadow Barn. The cottage, which is in a lovely quiet spot, was comfortable and clean, and ideally located for exploring the countryside around the Church Stretton Ludlow Knighton areas..

Was done to a high standard very clean and well presented. Tranquil location with lovely outlook onto fields and hills in the distance. Ideally situated to explore the area. Welcoming bottle of wine a lovely touch and the hot tub was a great way to relax after a day exploring. Everything about this place is first class and highly recommended.

Exactly what we needed, a fantastic place to stay for a couple of nights. Me and my wife wanted a place away where it didn't matter what there was to do near by, we didn't want to go out and look around the local area. We spent the time in the watching tv and the lambs, which were brave enough to come right up to the fence. Then the evening was spent on the hot tub looking at the stars. Linda was great from the start when we got lost and ended up in someone else's farm, she was there to meet us and after a quick tour of the barn conversation left us to it. It was a lovely touch with the bottle of wine she should be proud of what she has done with the accommodation, then to text me on the day of departure to say there is no rush to go as there are no bookings till The following day. The next time we are in need of a break away from everything, I know where we need to go. Linda keep on doing what you do.

Verity

This is our 2nd visit to meadow barn and we were again very happy with our stay. Lovely views of the meadow and the property was clean and everything was thought of. Linda was a great host again very kind and polite. Will return again in the near future

We really enjoyed staying at meadow barn, the accommodation just felt right and we loved watching the sheep and their lambs in the field behind us.

Nice views to back but shame view from front very ramshackle. Bit over priced for what you get

This property is a great place for couples who want to escape for a few days and relax. On arrival we met the owner who was a pleasure to meet, she gave us a brief tour around the property too! The pictures in my opinion did not do the property justice, it is a well presented, clean accomodation with all the handybasic items. I was very impressed. The hot tub was amazing!! We made sure we used that everyday we were there lol The view at the back of the property was stunning too. I'd encourage everyone to walk at the back and just take in the view. Although there is another property next door, we still felt like we had a lot of privacy! The bed was very comfortable and the shower was lovely too! My partner and I will definitely be returning next year!

We had a perfect weekend away at Meadow Barn for our 2 year anniversary. The property was immaculate everything that hadnt crossed our minds to take with us, Linda had already thought of. The attention to detail was superb. Lots of space within Meadow Barn itself and the views were nothing short of amazing. Linda met us at the property when we arrived and showed us around. A simply wonderful, relaxing break that was well received. We will certainly be back in the future.

A lovely place to stay, everything you need, the hot tub was great and the owner Linda was really helpful, just needed a few good local pubs which we didn't manage to find. Would recommend a stay here and hopefully we will be back in the near future.

Kayleigh

An absolutely gorgeous cottage with everything you could possibly want and need for a holiday. The hosts were lovely and on hand if we needed anything.The bed was really comfortable and the addition of the hot tub made our stay so relaxing. We would definitely recommend and hope to be back again soon!

Fantastically located cottage with spectacular natural views of the Shropshire countryside. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, very homely and warm. If you want peace and quiet this is the place. Attention to detail is amazing. Everything is there for you. There are many nearby places of interest, places to walk, local pubs and amenities. After a long walk you can chill and relax in a very impressive hot tub. Loved our stay. Look forward to staying here again.
