Thimble Cottage Reviews

What a fantastic place! ! We loved our stay at this cottage, it's a brilliant location right in the heart of the countryside so was completely peaceful and silent. The accommodation was extremely clean and tidy and is a brilliant place to stay with everything you need or want. The secure private garden was a great size for our dog and kids to run around and enjoy. And the hot tub is just the icing on the cake! The surrounding area is typical countryside with some amazing local shops and local pubs which sell some incredible food! You won't be disappointed wherever you end up trying. The onwers are extremely helpful and answer any issues you may have instantly. We will not hesitate to stay here again if we even want a peaceful break away in the future! Absolutely gem of a place and sooo glad we found it
Richard
An amazing stay at Thimble Cottage! Set in the heart of the countryside, the location was so peaceful, with incredible views and surrounded by nature. The cottage had everything youd need for an enjoyable stay. The bed was very comfy, the hot tub was huge and the free standing bath was very relaxing after days spent hiking and exploring. The welcome treats were tasty and much appreciated. Shropshire is beautiful. Highlights were Carding Mill Valley, Ironbridge to Coalport, Shrewsbury, The Wrekin, Apley Woods, Haugmond Abbey & Exotic Zoo Telfordand all the tasty food finds along the way. We can highly recommend The Walrus, Shrewsbury 30 mins The Bear Inn at Hodnet 15 mins and The Sutherland Arms 5 mins or a 2mile walk. Shrewsbury has some great bakeries and independent shops. We wouldnt hesitate to return and would thoroughly recommend a stay at Thimble Cottage. We wish we couldve stayed for longer!
Deborah
What a lovely cottage. Perfect for the 2 of us to explore Shropshire. Extremely quiet, well appointed and obviously owners' who care about their guests. Thank you.
What a hidden gem! Weve just come back from a wonderful stay at Thimble Cottage. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome by the lovely hosts, who had gone above and beyond to make our visit special. The cottage was beautifully decorated with festive Easter touches. Our daughters were absolutely thrilled to find little Easter gifts waiting for them such a thoughtful gesture that made their holiday even more magical. The views from the cottage were lovely and we enjoyed watching the horses. One of the highlights for us was the large hot tub the perfect spot to relax and take in the views, especially in the evening under the stars. Every detail had been considered, with lots of extra personal touches throughout the cottage that really made it feel like a home away from home. We couldnt have asked for a better Easter break and highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, familyfriendly getaway with hosts who truly care.

Lots of extras included Totally recommend staying

From how great the hosts were leading up to and during our stay, to the enormous hot tub, to having anything and everything you could possible imagine needing at the ready for your stay. Surrounded by beautiful views and kind people, this amazing retreat served as the perfect little break for two tired parents lol. We will DEFINITELY be visiting again, and bringing our two boys! Thank you to the hosts for your kindness and 10 out of 10 property.
This cottage was absolutely perfect for our short stay with friends. It had everything we needed and more. Easy access to the property and parking. It was spotlessly clean and well kept. The hot tub was so nice which was also well maintained and cleaned daily. It also worked very well at keeping hot. We enjoyed cooking and using the bbq in the garden area. The place is quiet and relaxing. Its also a short drive away from Shrewsbury which was a beautiful town with quaint shops and pubs. We would definitely recommend this place and would definitely return.
Lovely location everything spotless Steve was very helpful making it a very pleasant stay
Absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful cottage. Cottage was well equipped had everything u could think of. Really enjoyed the hot tub which was serviced daily by the owner who was very welcoming and friendly, best touch to the cottage was the beautiful horses in the paddock absolutely loved them! Will definitely be coming back very soon! Would definitely recommend for a relaxing break.
Absolutely fantastic cottage to take a well needed mini family moon. The cottage was kitted out with everything you needed and more! No expense sparred when fitting the cottage out! The bed was very comfortable, the little touches around the place were amazing and the hot tub at night star gazing was the cherry on the top. The horses in the paddock were lovely and friendly and the kids loved watching them. Overall excellent place! Highly recommended. Ps watch your head upstairs
Great little property, really clean and very well equipped. Good to know its local as we do lots of mini breaks. Chocolate eggs were a nice touch and the large hot tub was great. Thanks!
Fabulous property with amazing views, lovely and peaceful. Well equipped kitchen with everything we needed. Quick responses and thoughtful messages about local road closures. Very likely to return! Thank you!
Great little gem of a cottage. We have become used to little treats over the years but the owners make it extra special here. Super clean with all of the facilities you would expect, plus amazing views was all we needed! Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Darren
Had a wonderful stay at Thimble Cottage. Location was great and was probably the cleanest place we have ever stayed in. Everything you could need for your stay was provided and the large hot tub was fantastic. It was so relaxing to spend time in the hot tub watching the horses in the paddock. The hosts were great too not at all invasive but on hand if required. Waitrose, Indian restaurant and a lovely butchers all within ten minutes drive. We all had a lovely relaxing break and will look forward to returning.
We loved our weekend away at Thimble Cottage with our French bulldog. It was so peaceful and quiet. We slept really well. Loved the hot tub, seeing the horses in the neighbouring paddock, having private parking, being left chocolates and a bath bomb. The local butchers is definitely worth a visit for the sausages. We are definitely going to book again. If youre after a lovely relaxing break with nobody around, this is the place for you.
Lovely property with everything you could need for a short getaway.
Michaela
We had a great stay at Thimble cottage, we had everything we needed. The hot tub was great for the winter evenings. And the kids loved waking up and seeing the horses in the paddock. We have booked again for later in the year.
ALL EXCELLANTWOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIMBLE COTTAGE
Lovely property very clean. Lots of nice touches. Very well equipped. . A credit to the owners.
Abigail
Fab cottage, divine hot tub. Has everything you need, lovely peaceful location.
Steven
Superb hidden gem Fantastic hosts and nothing to much trouble Hot tub maintained every day great peaceful location almost off grid Steve and Charlotte should be proud of themselves Cant wait to return.
Michelle
A lovely well needed break made better by this gem of a find! Set comfortably rural to Telford, Thimble Cottage is a new listing to Sykes and is well equipped with everything you need, including a brew kit welcome pack, doggy treats, cleaning kit & equipment and very comfortable bedding. The hot tub is an added bonus and I would recommend taking your own towels for this use. The cottage was immaculately clean on arrival and the hot tub is serviced daily. This well presented cottage is very comfortable, dog friendly with a secure and spacious garden area as well as a paddock space when available to use. The cottage is tucked away down some small country roads, so the only advice is to be cautious of this but you can guarantee a quiet peaceful space with a stunning view where you can even witness shooting stars at night! We highly recommend Thimble Cottage and have already shared the cottage details with family and friends. Thank you again to the proprietors for a wonderful peaceful break.
We was so pleased with our stay the place was amazing so clean and everything we ...
