    “Absolutely fantastic holiday break at Mucklewick Hollow shepherd's hut.”

    Perfect in every way. Thank you Wendy we thoroughly enjoyed every second of our stay. Flo (border collie) was happy playing in the enclosed garden. 5 stars all the way.

The property

Bishop's Castle 6.3 miles.

This quaint pod lies within the owner’s grounds in a rural position on the edge of the Shropshire Hills AONB.

Enjoying a private setting with a decked area and off-road parking, Mucklewick Hollow provides an idyllic abode for couples and their canine companion, perfect for escaping everyday life and indulging in country life.

After a day of rambling the outdoors, kick off your walking boots and relax on the settee, accompanied by a charming woodburning stove which gently heats the space.

Move over to the kitchen and start preparing a home-favourite dish, making use of the electric oven and hob, before taking a seat at the dining table and toasting to a much-needed getaway.

The interior is uplifted by natural lighting; throw open the patio doors to bring the outside in, accessing the decked space where you can sit out on the furniture and take in the setting.

Freshen up in the shower room before heading to the double bed to catch your rest.

Awaken from a leisurely slumber and open the doors to the Juliette balcony; imagine lazing in bed whilst the birds chirp around you.

The surrounding area is a haven for walkers; head north to the Mitchell’s Fold Stone Circle, a 3000 year old monument nestled in grazing fields, or head south to the Bury Ditches and discover this British Iron Age hill fort.

Five miles away is the delightful village of Stiperstones, offering the essential amenities with the Stiperstones Inn providing a lovely spot for a drink and something to eat.

Explore into Bishop’s Castle where you will be greeted by historical wonder in the form of listed timber framed buildings, quaint shops and a “House on Crutches'' or head over the border into Wales and see the large Norman ruins of Montgomery Castle, the National Trust’s Powis Castle and Garden and the wonderful Welshpool & Llanfair Railway.

Escape to Mucklewick Hollow and enjoy a delightful retreat with your other half.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
