Paradise in Kenstone near Hodnet | Must-See Shropshire Hot Tub Cottage

About Paradise

Paradise is a luxury pod in rural Shropshire, near the small village of Kenstone. This isn't your average glamping experience. Set on a working farm with stunning countryside views, it's a proper escape from everyday life. The owners Lou and Phil have created something special here.

The location is brilliant. Peaceful farmland surrounds you with rolling hills in every direction. Total privacy guaranteed - perfect for stargazing from the hot tub after dark (and yes, you can see everything when you're that far from city lights). The sunken fire pit is a real highlight too - grab those complimentary marshmallows and get toasting!

The pod itself is a single-storey studio with everything you need. There's a comfy double bed, pull-out sofa bed, fully-equipped kitchen with combi microwave/oven, gas hob and fridge. The bathroom has a proper shower. Underfloor heating keeps everything toasty even in winter. The private hot tub stays perfectly hot (39-41°C) all night - better than most places where the temperature drops.

You're just 1.5 miles from the nearest pub and shop. Shrewsbury is within easy reach for shopping and sightseeing. Explore the Shropshire Hills or visit historic Ironbridge. Attingham Park makes a great day out too.

Paradise lives up to its name. Adults-only, no kids, no pets - just pure relaxation. The hot tub, fire pit and those views... Paradise indeed.

We stayed at this property for a long weekend for my partners birthday and it was fantastic! The lodge was clean, well stocked with everything that we needed and located on a beautiful farm, the views were incredible. The hosts were fantastic with good communication throughout and very helpful with any questions or requests we had. We would definitely stay here again and recommend this place to everyone. Thank you Lou and Phil for a perfect weekend.

We had a lovely 3 nights stay in the Paradise. Everything was spotless and clean on arrival, Lou and Phil were extremely friendly hosts and nothing was too much trouble. The area is very peaceful and quiet with great views and we especially enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. We will definitely be booking again in the future! Thank you!

Courtney

This was a surprise weekend away for my boyfriends birthday and he absolutely loved every second of it. We were greeted by Lou and she was so lovely to talk to and gave us a few places to go visit during our stay. We went to Hawkstone park follies for a day trip and its absolutely beautiful. 100 recommend a weekend here!

Heather

Such a beautiful, peaceful place. Lou and Phil met us on arrival and were very welcoming and informative. Pod was equipped with everything we needed, including a few extras e.g. hotchocolatr and marshmallows for the fire pit. We had one very small problem with the shower however this was sorted as soon was we let them know with no problems. Had an amazing few days here and will 100 be returning many time in the future. Thank you Lou and Phil.

Lou & Phil come & greated us straight away. Very welcoming and told us about everything around us that we can do for the weekend, we come down for my 30th birthday in which they left a bottle of Prosecco outside the door for us, when we run out of logs for the fire pit they brought us more, lovely quite area. Enjoyed every moment

Samuel

The cottage was excellent. It was clean and had everything we needed and more. The owners were also very friendly and helpful.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this hidden gem! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with breathtaking views, warm hospitality, and a cosy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The hot tub never went cold and was always at the perfect temperature and the fire pit was an amazing addition that you don't always see in log cabins. The little touches such as, hot chocolate, marshmallows and skewers to toast them on the fire was brilliant. We went on a lovely long walk on Saturday which was nearby to the cabin and recommended by the owners. We will 100 be returning and will be recommending this place to everyone!

Bethanie

The cabin was spotlessly clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. There were gifts of marshmallows and sweets aswell as tea, coffee, sugar and milk. The hot tub and the firepit were amazing we roasted marshmallows every night. The host was very welcoming and was just a text away if we needed anything. We will definitely be back to this place it's been one of the best cabins for relaxing we have ever been to.

Henrietta

Lovely property with lovely hosts, the listing was exactly as shown, would highly recommend. The hot tub and the fire pit were such nice additions and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed to make dinner, including basics like salt, pepper and oil.

Joseph

We had an amazing time at this log cabin! The fire pit was perfect on the evenings, and we were even given extra logs, which was very kind. The hot tub maintained a temperature between 3941C all night, which is better than any other hot tub weve used. The cabin itself had underfloor heating, and the kitchen was wellequipped with everything we needed. There were so many little details that other cabins dont offer, such as marshmallow toasting sticks, robes, a smart tv and plenty of towels. On arrival, we were greeted with hot chocolates, marshmallows, and milk. The owners were very friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. We will definitely be returning! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a log cabin getaway.

We stayed over for the weekend for my partners Christmas present and it was even better than we expected! They provided tea,coffee etc marshmallows for the fire pit and hot chocolate. The bed was so comfy and the place was spotless, we couldnt recommended this place anymore and will definitely be back again in the future. The hosts were so lovely and welcoming we really enjoyed our stay

Patrick

We arrived to Paradise to be greeted by Lou and Phil who were extremely pleasant and welcoming. They advised us of the things we needed to know about the property before showing us down the drive to the property. We were shocked at how beautiful the accommodation was, impeccably clean and could not fault anything. We extremely enjoyed our stay it was very peaceful and relaxing. Both of us wished we had booked for longer as the location is perfect for anyone who is looking to get away from life. We will definitely be back in the near future. Thank you again Patrick & Hayley

Daniel

Fantastic venue and really great hosts. We had one issue during our stay which was that the water pipe had frozen over night we did go at the start of January so to be expected!, we reported this to the owners who were at our pod and fixed the issue within minutes. Fantastic service, really nice amount of privacy and a lovely hot tub!

Very nice place well kept and really clean perfect for a little weekend break, hot tub and fire pit is cosy and the cabin is well kept and very good, cant recommend this place enough would definitely visit again.

Justyna

Such a lovely stay, lovely area and hosts. Hot tub and fire pit were unreal! Couldnt recommend any more and will definitely be returning!

Lauren

An incredible property run by incredible hosts. So welcoming and friendly and we were amazed with the lodge. Thank you so much!

Darren

Wow this pod was amazing. We have stopped in many places over the years but paradise was a real standout. Everything is perfectly laid out and completed to a high standard. The fire pit is lovely and so cosy with the fire blazing away. As for the hot tub we spent an awful lot of time in there. The temperature was perfect and we were surprised at how well it keeps the heat. Most hot tubs drop over time but this one kept the temperature steady for as long as we needed it. Stargazing from the hot tub was one of the favourite parts of our stay. The hosts were so lovely and so keen to make sure our stay was perfect but they were not intrusive at all and we felt like we had the place to ourselves We are booking again for July which is a sign of how much we enjoyed our stay.

Courtney

We had the best stay in Paradise! Lou and Phil are the perfect hosts, very welcoming but also leave you to do your own thing. The pod has everything you could need for the stay and the attention to detail is amazing with all of the little extras that make the pod extra comfy. The firepit and hot tub are amazing, the views from the pod are great and We loved how private it all was. Thank you Lou and Phil! We will definitely be back!

Johanna

I cannot speak highly enough of this gorgeous log cabin, from even driving up to the cabin we got butterflies and the views are stunning. It's so stunning to look at and doesn't look out of place in the location it is set in which is a working farm ran by the 2 lovely people who greeted us on arrival Lou & Phil. Straight away they made us feel so welcome they are so friendly and accommodating, making sure we were happy and comfortable. Inside the cabin is exactly as the pictures show and everything provided is of good quality not cheap like you find in other cabins learned from previous experience in a cabin and the cabin was so warm, we never felt the cold at all which was a worry as the weather had turned so much but we didnt need to worry. The hot tub was so brilliant and the water so warm and was enjoyed on a nice crisp chilled evening! But the fire pit took the medal, it is stunning and so brilliant how it's sunken into the ground, this massively appealed to my oh who loved getting the fire going

Andrea

Great location for a very chilled relaxing break. Beautiful hut with everything you need, very comfortable and warm. Great having the choice to relax in hot tub or sit down around fire pit.Phil and lou lovely hosts,and very welcoming. Definitely would like to visit again.

We had such an amazing time away. Would definitely recommend. Lou& Phil were amazing. It had everything you would need. Such a peaceful place

Lauren

We had an amazing stay! Lou & Phil couldnt be more welcoming. The paradise pod we stayed in was gorgeous very clean and the views were beautiful! Would definitely stay again.

Thank you for our superb stay. Everything was tiptop. Such a tranquil place to stay. We will definitely be returning to see you again .

Kirsty

Stayed there for the pure reason of relaxing and it was just that. Comfy bed, amazing scenery, very secluded so although it was on a farm we had so much privacy, hot tub & fire pit were incredible. Will definitely recommend and stay again.
