We liked the peace and quiet and the excellent accommodation in such a pleasant part of England, with lots of local interest.

Rated by Mr Goddard reviewed on 27th June 2016

The location was very good for stately homes, castles, gardens etc. which we were interested in, plus Ludlow and Leominster. What a lovely setting in the heart of the country with farm animals (cows) to welcome us. Such a comfortable cottage; a place to relax after a day of site seeing. I would go back there in a heart beat.

Rated by Mrs Kane reviewed on 26th May 2016

An excellent , clean and tidy cottage with everything provided. Ideally situated for visiting the local area during the day and relaxing in the cottage in the evening.

The property was spotlessly clean and well appointed, in beautiful countryside. There are lots of interesting places to visit within easy reach of the cottage.

Rated by Mr Hargreaves reviewed on 31st August 2015

The cottage was well placed for several National Trust properties. There were plenty of walks in the area. The cottage was very peaceful, if you want a holiday away from it all, this is for you.

Meadow Lea is a lovely warm and cosy place to stay and ideal if you have children.

Rated by Ms Reynolds reviewed on 3rd November 2014

The bungalow was lovely, I could live there full time. The garden area was great to sit in; peaceful, quiet and we saw quite a lot of wild life. The position it was located in which was great for seeing the surrounding areas. We were blessed with perfect weather which was a bonus.

Rated by Mrs Roberts reviewed on 29th September 2014

The bungalow was just about perfect for us (2 adults, plus 2 children with walking difficulties). It has a great layout, plus it feels so much bigger within than it looks from the outside. There was a lovely view from the front and a pleasant quiet garden at the back. A 10/10 for this lovely property - I would gladly return.

Rated by Mr Kerins reviewed on 1st September 2014

We particularly liked the warm welcome from the owner. The cottage was comfortable and well appointed. Its location is quiet, but very accessible with easy parking. An ideal base for exploring the area.

What a wonderful peaceful private location,very clean & a huge chocolate cake from the farmer's wife which we ate for breakfast on sunday as we hadn't done any shopping!The view was magnificent the only thing spoiling this idyllic place was the terrible smell of diesel if we put the heating on.The drive along the single track road on the Long Mynd above Carding Mill Valley was amazing,Shropshire Hills Discovery centre was great for meals,lovely souvenirs & art gallery.We are both disabled & found locals so helpful & the bungalow fabulous.

Rated by Mrs Griffiths reviewed on 12th July 2013

Spent a very happy week in Meadow Lea at the beginning of april. Clean, quiet, very well equipped and a delicious cake of arrival. Stunning views across the valley to the River Lugg. Good, efficient central heating and plenty of parking.

Rated by A FlipKey verified reviewer reviewed on 26th June 2013

The farm cottage has a marvellous view to the east across the Lugg valley. It was quiet and the nearby road is in a dip so there is only the occasional sound of a passing car. There are no street lights anywhere so the stars are visible at night. It is well placed for visiting Herefordshire and south Shropshire. The owners are first class hosts.

Rated by Mr Wallis reviewed on 14th April 2013

Perfectly located for visiting Leominster and Ludlow, very handy bus service to the door.

Rated by Mrs Hinsley reviewed on 31st January 2013

The cottage has good sized rooms. It is quiet and self contained. It has space for children to play outside and indoors. It was lovely to find fresh roses in a vase, a pint of milk in the fridge and some cakes for our arrival.

Rated by Mrs Lambert reviewed on 8th January 2013

Great rural location for visiting and sightseeing. The bungalow was within easy reach of Leominster. The owner made us feel very welcome. A great time, great location and very homely property, would highly recommend.

Rated by Mr Clark reviewed on 8th November 2012

The bungalow was in an excellent area to use as a base for exploring the surrounding towns and villages. It was exceptionally clean, warm and quite comfortable. The welcome by the owner was wonderful. All in all, a real find.
