Bicton Lodge Reviews

Alastair

We recently spent the bank holiday at this lovely lodge, everything was as advertised. The welcome pack was a nice added touch as well. The lodge is set in a lovely peaceful area with an amazing view from the lounge and garden where the hot tub is situated. We had the perfect weather which just enhanced our stay. Thomasina is a great host. Were already looking to book again! It was the perfect romantic weekend for us, just what wed hoped it would be.

Thomas

Thanks again Thomasina, great location, loved the hot tub Lots of farm animals nearby in the beautiful countryside. Cottage is well equipped and suited us all well, plus enough room for 2 cars off road parking as well. Will definitely be recommending to family and friends. Hopefully be back one day.

This is a lovely holiday home in a beautiful location, with lots of fabulous walking available from the doorstep on to the Shropshire Way and Offa's Dyke path. It's also ideally located for visiting Clun, Bishops Castle, Ludlow and the stunning Stiperstones. The property was spotlessly clean, had everything we needed and was roomy and comfortable, with the added benefit of the hot tub to ease tired muscles after long, hilly walks! Thomasina was very welcoming and the basket of beer, lemonade, Welsh cakes etc. was a thoughtful touch, as was the milk and butter in the fridge. Overall, highly recommended.

Recently back from the gorgeous Bicton Lodge and what a fabulous weeks stay we had. The lodge was a perfect get away in beautiful Shropshire with fantastic views and surroundings. The lodge was spacious, well equipped with all that we needed and the log burner made it even cosier, boy it can throw out some heat! At the end of the day, to wind down with a glass of wine in the hot tub was a must and perfect for a bit of stargazing. We even had regular visits from the owners cat, he made himself quite at home and we loved it. Thomasina was lovely and on hand if needed but other than that she left us to it. We can't recommend Bicton Lodge highly enough and we'd love to go back, which we're hoping to later in the year.

Joanne

A beautifully, comfortable cottage set in peaceful surroundings. We booked the cottage to sit back and relax for a few days, we were able to do this and didn't want to leave. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Our host, Thomasina, was very friendly and helpful. The welcome basket was very much appreciated.

Steven

The perfect base for a holiday in the quiet of Shropshire Clunton and Clunbury, Clungunford and Clun are the quietest places under the sun. We had a wonderful relaxing week. Thank you Thomasina.

Thomas

Lovely cottage in a fabulous area.

Sylvia

Excellent facility for a weeks stay in this beautiful county. Thomasina was most helpful and courteous. Always checked if it was convenient to check the hot tub. Not a problem at all that the owner lived next door. Highly recommend Bicton Lodge.

We had a wonderful time in a perfect location

A lovely holiday cottage in a beautiful setting!

What a truly wonderful property. A real find. It was just what we needed to relax and unwind. The facilities were clean and all there. The owner popped to welcome us and carry out the fire regulations talk and even gave us some tips of where to eat. Really wonderful property and owner. Thank you so so much we cannot wait to return xx

A truly wonderful cottage in a gorgeous location. Private, very comfortable and excellent facilities. A lovely welcome pack, and the hottub was maintained daily early morning whilst we slept. We were very well looked after. The location is gorgeous, with stunning views of the fields and hills, and on a clear night the night sky is full of starts...no uplighting to spoil the experience. We were a party of 4 adults, looking to have a relaxing unwind. It was perfect in every way. I'd highly recommend this cottage for a stay.

Lovely friendly welcome by the owner, to the extremely clean and tidy lodge, in a very private location. Very comfortable and felt at home very quickly.

A great place to truly relax. A lovely timber building with a bright, clean and modern interior, set in a beautiful rural location. Thomasina is an attentive host, but is never intrusive. Bicton Lodge is the perfect place to shed the burdens of city life. We loved it!

Darren

Thomasina was a great host and the lodge was such a serene retreat. ..the welcome basket of local produce like the pale ale, lemonade, Welsh cakes and fresh cut flowers from the garden was a fabulous welcomer. We had cows and sheep for neighbours all week and a fabulous hot tub we certainly put to good use as my bad back welcomed it . The cottage had most things you need for a great break and any recommendations were welcomed.Would definitely recommend the place. The only problem I had personally was I missed my very comfy bed so I'll bring bed toppers next time.

Sandra

Lovely little lodge, very clean and everything as required. Host was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend. Great base for visit to Shropshire.

I had a perfect week with my daughter. The views are breath taking. The cottage was everything and more. The bed was so comfortable

Hayley

Excellent accommodation with everything provided that you could ever want. Beautifully clean and in a great location for walks or exploring other places. Comfy beds, stunning hot tub and a log burner for those chilly evenings. The owner, Thomasina, has the perfect balance of friendlychatty and is on hand for anything you may need.

Stuart

Everything youd want in a rural Cottage stay in a great quiet location with an attentive owner who was available should you have any issues of which we had none. We would definitely stay at the property again for a rural Shropshire escape. You are

Brilliant location very peaceful. Great owners . Thank you for a wonderful stay we will be back

A wonderful week in Bicton Lodge! Everything we needed, fabulous comfy beds and a lovely host. Just what we needed to explore Shropshire

Top notch place with the best owner you could wish for

Matthew

Our stay at Bicton Lodge was warmly welcomed by Thomasina. The lodge itself is perfect. It has beautiful scenery all around, about 1 mile outside of Clun so not to far from the local pubs for food and drinks. We visited Bicton Lodge for our honeymoon and Thomasina went the extra mile to make our stay perfect. The Lodge is very cosy, warm and beds were really comfortable. Thomasina even set up the super king for us. The hot tub is a fantastic added extra as you can just jump in whenever you feel like it and enjoy the scenery during the day and look up at the stars at night. Overall we would rate our stay as a 10 out of 10. We don't usually go back to places on a second visit we prefer to travel around and try new places but Bicton Lodge will definitely be somewhere we come back to again. We have also recommended it to many friends and family. The only bad thing about Bicton Lodge is that we only booked it up for 3 nights, we wish we would have had a full week. Thank you Thomasina for making our honeymoon perfect. Even leaving us a card and the little hand written note on the door made it feel extra special. Thank you

Wonderful little place for well needed bit of relaxation an quite. Kitchen is well equipped an the beds are so comfy

We had an amazing time. The property was lovely and we was met and greeted by Thomasina who was very friendly and couldn't do enough for us.id have no problem thoroughly recommending anyone to book and stay here,we will probably be back ourselves.

Another fantastic stay at BICTON LODGE! This was our second visit for the new year and it didn't dissapoint. Once again beautiful home with stunning views across the country. Beds are so comfy we lay in most days, because we could haha. Exceptional host Tomasina who adds the most special touches. We arrived to a beautiful welcome pack which included a bottle of fizz and some lovely Christmas presents under the tree x The weather wasn't that great this year but that didn't stop us using the hot tub and enjoying lots of just dance on the wee

Andrew

We had a great time here. The hot tub was a hit with my girls and they enjoyed waking up each morning to see how close the cows were. We made some memories here as a family that we won't forget.

Really lovely cottage. Owner was so friendly and discreet.

Lindsay

Lovely lodge, fitted out with everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was great bonus after a long walk and having the cows look over at you was interesting they are so curious! We could image being cosy in the colder weather with the fire going.

Andrew

Recently stayed at Bicton Lodge and it was everything we expected clean, spacious,relaxing and very quiet. The area is unique, full of wildlife, beautiful vistas and not many people! If you enjoy walking, cycling or just visiting historic towns or hamlets, this area and the comfort of Bicton Lodge will not let you down.

We really enjoyed our stay in this cottage. Everything was clean and tidy even the kitchen knives were sharp! and to hand. The views are lovely, local tradespeople Mr T's pies you must have one and Long Mynd Cider are ones we used are really helpful and friendly. The owner is on hand if needed and is also friendly and helpful. The walks from the cottage and further afield are lovely. It was great to get in the hot tub after a long day's strenuous walking to ease aching muscles, especially with the great views from it.

We had a lovely stay at Bicton Lodge! The property is so cosy and clean, and the hot tub was the cherry on the cake. The owner was very helpful and kind. Would highly recommend.
