Fallow Lodge, Shrewsbury

Fallow Lodge sits on a 60-acre farm in tiny Sheinton, Shropshire. This spacious 4-bedroom retreat offers the perfect escape from everyday life with room for 8 guests and their four-legged companions. The village itself is barely more than a hamlet, with an ancient Norman church and plenty of peace and quiet. Who needs noisy neighbours when you've got sheep?

The surrounding countryside provides a proper rural getaway. Just 3 miles from historic Much Wenlock and 7 miles from Ironbridge Gorge (the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, not just a pretty face). The private enclosed garden comes with furniture, BBQ and fire pit - perfect for those evenings when you want to drink wine under the stars and tell increasingly unbelievable stories.

The accommodation features four comfortable bedrooms (one downstairs), two bathrooms (again, one downstairs - no midnight stair climbing after too many drinks) and a well-equipped kitchen with two fridges. Because one fridge is never enough for a proper holiday, is it? There's also access to a shared games room with table tennis and table football for those competitive types.

Nearby attractions include Benthall Hall (5.5 miles), Attingham Park (7 miles), The Edge Adventure Activities (4 miles) and Ironbridge Gorge Museum (7 miles). All less than 30 minutes away by car!

Fallow Lodge is ideal for families or friends looking for quality time together. Soak in the hot tub, explore the countryside, then return to your cosy base. Sometimes the best memories are made in the middle of nowhere.
