Church Stretton Holiday Chalet, Cotswolds / West Midlands, England

Romantic Log Chalet, Fabulous views over Church Stretton


Description of holiday chalet in Church Stretton, Cotswolds / West Midlands

Perched on the hillside, The Larches has outstanding views over the picturesque town of Church Stretton - nicknamed “Little Switzerland” and the only market town to be found in South Shropshire’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Adjacent to the main house, The Larches is equipped and furnished to a high standard and can sleep up to two people.

Church Stretton town centre is an easy stroll away. Here you can find small shops, cafes, restaurants, a wine bar, pubs, an antiques market, golf course and railway station. The train can take you to the centre of medieval Shrewsbury or the historic market town of Ludlow in approximately 15 minutes and is on the mainline from Cardiff to Manchester. Also within easy reach are notable sights such as the museums of Ironbridge, Stokesay Castle, Offa’s Dyke, Weston Park and Buildwas Abbey to name but a few.

The Larches is dwarfed by the glorious backdrop of the Long Mynd, Caradoc and Carding Mill Valley all but a stone's throw away. You are spoilt by many beautiful and scenic walks to suit both the less energetic and more experienced hill walkers.

The Larches and Church Stretton are the ideal place from where you can go onto explore the rest that Shropshire has to offer.

Cross-country routes are well marked for hikers, horse riders, mountain bikes, and naturalists. The Long Mynd, which rises above the west of the town, is renowned for gliding, hang gliding and paragliding, and boasts the second highest golf course in England. The beautiful countryside, with its wild uplands and breathtaking views, features prominently in the books of Mary Webb, A E Housman, and Malcolm Saville.

Situated midway between Shrewsbury and Ludlow, Church Stretton is also a convenient centre from which to visit several historic towns, castles, museums and sites of interest, within a 15 mile radius through beautiful countryside. The area offers an excellent range of accommodation, restaurants (some Michelin starred), pubs and shops.
