Located in the heart of Church Stretton, the Bucks Head Hotel manages to pack a lot of rural charm into a relatively small building. The new owners of the hotel have taken great strides to improve it since they took over management from the previous proprietor. Overall, a great place to stay if you’re looking to explore the Shropshire area.

The easy access and the welcome via text, The cleanliness of the house and its location in the centre of Church Stretton. The flapjacks and a bottle of milk in the fridge were a nice touch. The secure garden at the back was great for our dog.

The location in Church Stretton is perfect if you are there to walk the Shropshire hills

I cannot speak too highly of the owner Suzanne, we had a fabulous welcome and nothing was too much trouble. We had the fantastic apartment which had a self contained kitchen. The bathroom had a seperate bath and shower unit and was bigger than some hotel bedrooms! The presentation was impressive and a very high class of decor. The cleaning was to an ultra high standard and we were very very impressed. The breakfast in the morning is continental, we had enough food left in the kitchen to feed most of Church Stretton let alone the two of us! Due to me having problem knees it was impossible to walk into the town for an evening meal, it is very easy for an able bodied person. This location is ideal for people who want a peaceful night and want a base for sightseeing and walking!

A comfortable studio cottage, very smartly laid out. Wonderful host and lots of information about the area. Questions were promptly addressed.

We spent 3 nights in Sapphire forest garden shepherd’s hut. Sapphire is beautiful inside and out; tastefully decorated and well-equipped with a wickedly comfortable bed, twinkly lights, beautiful views and a mighty efficient little log burner – so cosy. You’re provided with kindling and logs to make it up again daily. There are pans, crockery and glasses in the hut and you can prepare food in the outdoor kitchen area just across from Sapphire, using the camping stove. We savoured free range duck eggs and toast for breakfast every day – what a treat! There’s a fire pit and you can buy a barrow of logs for evenings outside around the fire. You can charge any electricals you need with a USB cable inside Sapphire. The compost loo is comfortable, clean and charming. The hosts are working on constructing a shower now, but with summer upon us it was lovely having a wash al-fresco (in fact I recommend it) – just take a sarong or hammam towel, find a pretty spot and enjoy feeling free and invigorated when you wash amongst the trees! The pool is also a beautiful place to enjoy the boat, take a swim, or chill in the Tea-Den. Here you are surrounded by acres of trees and biodiversity. Birds in abundance, flowers and bees… The hosts are kind and welcoming; they’ve created a sanctuary for wildlife and their guests. We have already recommended the place to our friends, will definitely be going back and if you’ve read this review this far then to you, too – I highly recommend you stay in this magical place. It’s good for the soul. Thank you Merav and Janta 🙏
