Old Hall Barn 1 Reviews

Robert
Fantastic location, perfect for walking into Church Stretton and enjoying all its facilities. The accommodation is warm and welcoming, with beautiful views to relax and unwind in, whether you are in the hot tub or not. A great place that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday while still having amenities close by. There is also so much more to explore in the surrounding area, but we just wanted to relax.
Deborah
Fantastic week property as everything we needed hot tub great and private ... Fantastic week property as everything we needed hot tub great and private dont think it could be much better thank you will definitely come again
Just got back after spending 7 nights here for our 20th anniversary! Amazing stay, very clean, homely and cosy! Even though it was raining for the whole week we took advantage of the hot tub! We visited the local pub The Yew Tree which was a 5 minute walk away fantastic food! The town is a 5 minute drive away and stocked up on essentials! Overall and awesome experience and would definitely like to visit again perhaps in the summer! Thank you for a fab stay! Our furry friend Roger enjoyed his stay too!
Jacqueline
The barn was lovely clezn and homely. They had even put in a xmas tree which was a lovely touch. The hot tub was very welcoming. Lots of nice walks and very good pubs near by
We loved the property, exactly as listed. Cute little barn, plenty of space, fully secure garden for two little explorers, the hot tub was a big hit! Perfect for a break, small village but close enough to shops and the local pub was very friendly. We will be back, thank you
Lovely barn lovely touches of homemade cakes . Unfortunately we found the TV to be temperamental in the living room and struggled to get it to work fully. Unfortunately the barn was very cold even when we tried to adjust the heating . The hot tub chemicals were extremely high to the point it made the children's skin red and itchy. When we attempted the bath the water was Luke warm which was disappointing. A few finishing touches are needed to make it a great stay .and worth the money we paid . We would recommend a few check lists to ensure things are working especially in the winter .
Lovely property in quiet location the village of All Stretton has a lovely pub and it is possible to walk into Church Stretton which is a lively town. Old Barn 1 has a well equipped kitchen including a decent selection of knives, good sized mugs and different types of glassware very happy hubby to be able to have a pint glass! Having access to a Sky package is a bonus although due to bad weather at the time of our visit, the system was down quite a lot Main bed is lovely and comfortable and bedside tables useful although drawers maybe better given there is no storage in the main bedroom, only a rack of hooks on the wall The 2nd bedroom is very spacious and has the added bonus of the walkin wardrobe. Outside is a secure garden leading to a steam with wonderful views over the fields we didn't get to use the hot tub because of the weather but it would have been fabulous to sit and relax with a glass of wine As with any rental accommodation, there is always something that could be improved personally, we would prefer some form of more relaxing lighting in the lounge rather than having to have the centre light on and a shaving mirror in the bathroom would be easier than using the medicine cabinet mirror which is at right angles to the basin We would definitely visit the Old Barns again both as a couple and as bigger party there were other accommodations available which would be ideal for large gatherings who wanted a little bit of their own space too
Lesley
Had a wonderful break at Old Hall Barn 1 very comfortable and warm. Lots of walking nearby and a good soak in the hot tub afterwards. Would definitely itley book again.
A comfy and well equipped cottage. We were two and two medium sized dogs and there was plenty of room , would easily fit four. A lovely big garden, fully fenced with a daily visit from a heron. Plenty of walks from the door, and an easy walk into Church Strettonabout a mile pavement all the way. A good sized coop and plenty of other local shops, we didnt need to shop anywhere else. Plenty to see in the surrounding area by car. We had a great week.
Rachel
This beautiful cottage is situated in a lovely, quiet village & is ideally located for visiting both the stunning countryside & towns of Shropshire. It is well equipped & the fully enclosed garden was fantastic for my two whippet sized lurchers. The owner was very welcoming & friendly & quick to answer any questions, though not intrusive. The lemon cake waiting for us on arrival was a lovely touch. We will be returning.
Angela
Really enjoyed our stay at old barn number 1. Perfect view of the Shropshire Hills and countryside ! The property was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed to cook an evening meal on our return from a day out walking or sightseeing. Shropshire is a hidden gem of a county and the old barns was a great location for exploring. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub under starry skies. The enclosed garden was great for my dog too. Local pub was another bonus.
Rebecca
Lovely, comfortable dog friendly cottage with private garden and Hot Tub. Very clean and tidy. Great location for exploring Shropshire with lots of walks available. Close to shopspubs. Everything we needed to relax and unwind.
Place is generally in good condition, plumbing needs attention washer emptied onto floor and very noisy water pipes. Gutter drips at front door. We reported when we left. I thought bed was ok, husband thought too soft. Bedding and towels were good. Hot tub great and well maintained. Heating worked well, nice and cosy. Pub in village was nice. Nice area for walking. We left a day early due to 4 people arriving in property attached who thought ok to use hot tub at midnight as well as shouting, drinking and smoking drugs. We did text owner who did come and the people went inside. However we did not wish to stay in case same happened again next day night as we had a disturbed night and it unsettled our dog. TV bracket also needed attention as tv at angle. Fenced garden secure for our dog. Obviously you cant pick your neighbours, but it spoilt the end of our stay. There needs to be rules at least about hot tub use times etc

Lovely accommodation in the Shropshire Hills, 5 minutes drive from Church Stretton. Rachel was very welcoming and helpful and had left us a delicious lemon cake thank you! The barn was small, but plenty big enough for 4 adults both bedrooms are on the ground floor. The hot tub was the highlight so relaxing to sit in and admire the view after a day of walking.
Kelvin
We stayed for 3 nights. We had two dogs with us, the garden was great for them to play in and secure The barn was comfortable and clean. The hot tub was a lovely added bonus. And a welcome homemade lemon cake. We are planning on going back next year.
It was a lovely place to stay and everything was as it said it was. Very relaxing, perfect for the dog lots of off road walking so you didn't have to use car alot. Would definitely stay again. Socks the dog would've like blinds or curtains on front and back door to keep the morning sun out a little longer, this is her preference not a moan. The owners where so thoughtful with all the things that are there for you like all the essentials and more and everything was very well equipped . One of the best we've stayed at
Danielle
We absolutely loved our time at Old Hall Barn. We booked as a group of 3 friends with 2 dogs, and it was absolutely perfect. The enclosed garden was ideal and very safe for the dogs especially as 1 is a puppy so not great off the lead yet. The hot tub was glorious and the accommodation and facilities offered everything we needed for a relaxing and lovely stay. I'm thinking of booking again with my husband so that we can explore the area a bit more as the only problem was that we were so comfortable in the cottage and hot tub that we spent the whole weekend catching up there instead of exploring the area I would highly recommend.
We had a lovely time in this cottage. Nice and spacious, had everything we needed for 5 nights with our dog. The garden is completely enclosed, so no chance of escape for the dog. The hot tub was a nice touch and helped with any aches from the beautiful walks on your doorstep. This is a beautiful part of the world and this cottage is a great base to explore it from.

Been several times now, always a pleasure in a lovely part of Shropshire
Lovely cottage, in a very peaceful area, we loved the hot tub and garden, which felt secluded. The area was beautiful to explore and great pub a few minutes walk away!
Graham
Great stay. Cottage has everything you need and the location is ideal for walking or just relaxing. Owners are very helpful and approachable. We have stayed here on several occasions previously and look forward to coming back.
This property was exactly as it was advertised, lovely setting, perfect enclosed secure garden for my dogs. Hot tub a honus after a day of sightseeing. A very clean comfortable cottage.
Nikita
Lovely responsive owners. Answered my call and promptly resolved the fridge not working, with a replacement. Cottage exactly as described, lovely area easy to find. A couple of small changes that could make the cottage 1010. Towels for the hot tub could be provided, a clothes horse or more hanging space for towels as nothing in the bathroom. The back door and front door would benefit from a mat to stop grass coming through. Overall a lovely stay, 100 would recommend.
Good cottage nice facilities only down side small fridge and lack of decent frying pan
The area around the property was clean and well maintained. The hot tub was checked daily and the whole complex was clean and well maintained.The views were spectacular.A beautiful area.
Brooke
Myself, partner, and dog had an amazing time at Old Hall Barn. There are so many beautiful walks close by, topped off with the hot tub in the evening. Would recommend to everyone.
