Overview
Property code: 74982

Luxury property with gated entrance, set in seven acres of grounds with hot tub, tennis court and play facilities. Perfect to relax, experience the culture or be active in Shropshire and its borders.

Located in a quiet and secluded spot just metres from Weir Brook, this luxurious property is the ideal hideaway for a bunch of friends or family to mark a special occasion. Sleeping eight across four plush bedrooms, you'll wake up refreshed and ready to enjoy everything this fantastic lodge has to offer. Top of the itinerary is a soak in the hot tub on the terrace, looking out across the 7 acres of grounds that surround you - perfect after a long day out exploring the local area. Head to Oswestry (7 miles) and discover the town's rich history, climbing atop the Iron Age fort, or take advantage of one of the many pubs and restaurants for a bite to eat and your favourite tipple.

Drive through the gates and park up at this beautiful lodge before heading inside and leaving your coats in the hallway, chucking any muddy laundry from long walks in the washing machine in the utility room. Continue down the hall and feel the welcome of a bright and airy open-plan living area where spotlights and a mixture of white tones with dark furnishings are complemented by superb views from the picture windows and French doors. Throw these open on a summer's day and head out to the veranda for an al fresco BBQ before unwinding in that fabulous hot tub. There's even a shared full-size tennis court and children's play area, so everyone's catered for. On cooler nights, stock up on the snacks and sink into the velvet sofas for a film night or play some board games long into the night. When it's time for bed, soft decor and crushed velvet in the bedrooms will lull you to sleep; rush to get the king-size room with en-suite shower room and doors to the veranda! There are two more king-size bedrooms with en-suites and a Jack and Jill bathroom connecting a super king-size zip-and-link bedroom to the hallway, so there's something for everyone here.

Any party members looking for a slower-paced afternoon can go for a horse-drawn canal ride in the town, or take a stroll along the footpaths. Further afield, Alyn Waters (23 miles) is the perfect place for a family cycle and has easy access to the nature reserve, an adventure playground and a golf driving range.

The cottage is a lovely spacious size so you dont feel on top of each other and in a lovely setting. The only bad points out if a lovely break here is that the hot tub is a little dated now and not many jets worked and a couple of the showers werent usable due to one had poor power and the other one was stuck on a low temprature.

Great property. Absolutely met all our needs for 4 adults and a toddler. Very clean and well equipped. Four properties on site are well spaced apart and have extra privacy which makes it feel very private. I'm glad that the owners resisted the temptation to squeeze extra properties onto the site.

We stayed in the kingfisher lodge & had a great stay. The lodge was well equipped with everything that was needed and cleanliness was perfect. Nice quiet location and very relaxing. We enjoyed the outdoor areas as well as the hot tub but also found the games in the lodge to be fun and handy on a rainy day. Thank you very much for a lovely break.

Peaceful location, nice get away from it all without feeling completely cut off. We enjoyed visiting National Trust properties and Shrewsbury then returning to the retreat and walking or playing tennis in the evenings. Kingfisher was very well equipped and extremely spacious. Four bedrooms with ensuites are great when you have three adult children!Read more A few minor issues that need addressing in order to be truly 5*. Hide

The accommodation was first class and set in a nice location. The local villages have good pub restaurants and further afield interesting places to visit such as Llangollen and Ellesmere. Any minor problems we had were quickly resolved by the owners, resulting in a very enjoyable stay.
