The Heart of England / Peak District / Shropshire region
Encompassing the Cotswolds, Shropshire and the Welsh Borders, this true “heart of England” offers honey coloured stone cottages, country towns and tranquil countryside. Shropshire delights with its variety. Whether exploring the castle, narrow streets or fine dining of Ludlow, strolling by the river in medieval Shrewsbury or discovering delightful Church Stretton, Bridgnorth or Bishops Castle, you can be assured of plenty to see and sample. Even the museums and attractions are wide ranging; from the industrial investigations to ecologically informative nature centres, and even the chance to step back in time and visit a working Victorian village.
Even the landscape alters, from the hills, heaths and deep wooded valleys of the Welsh borderlands to the magnificent, moorland scenery of the Long Mynd, while the beautiful Teme, Clu, Corve and Onny valleys host an amazing variety of wildlife. You can even take a walk on the wild side among the legendary Stiperstones, at Wenlock Edge and within the stunning Clee Hills. Herefordshire offers visitors the chance to journey through lush green countryside, enjoying splendid black-and-white timbered villages, a magnificent cathedral city, a fairytale Georgian castle at Eastnor or books galore in famous Hay-on-Wye. And if all that touring leaves you thirsty, lashings of Herefordshire cider should do the trick!
The Shrewsbury / Great Lyth area
Three of Shropshire’s loveliest hills – Stiperstones, Caradoc and the Long Mynd – are close to the hamlet of Great Lyth. This is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and visitors can enjoy its attractions in a variety of ways, from rambling or riding to touring by car. There is plenty for the entire family to enjoy here, and famous local attractions include the Wroxeter Roman City, Stokesay Castle and Ironbridge World Heritage Centre. Shrewsbury, with its shops, pubs, restaurants, pubs and riverside beautiful architecture, is just five miles away. Shrewsbury Abbey and Castle, and the lovely riverside walks, are also immensely popular.

Guestbook for 2602 - The Wainscott
This property is a fantastic place to stay. We all loved the grounds: the lake and tennis court. It's set in such a tranquil area yet with easy access to the surrounding countryside. The cottage was really homely and clean. The cake on our arrival was very much appreciated!

,It is difficult to say what we enjoyed most, as everything about the property exceeded our expectations! The location was beautiful and the cottage amenities were fantastic. The property owners were extremely friendly, without being intrusive, and were kind to provide extras above and beyond the remit.
The Wainscott is perfectly equipped, with everything required for a self-catering stay. In summary, a beautiful cottage with suburb facilities in a stunning location.
