Pretty cottage in beautiful location
I had a lovely short stay in this property in Nov ‘23 with family. Both the cottage and local surroundings are very pretty. The cottage is well equipped and large - would make the perfect base for people on a walking holiday.

Quiet location
This large cottage is perfectly located for easy access to Church Stretton and the Shropshire Hills: Long Mynd, Cardingmill Valley etc. The cottage itself is very quiet. It is also warm and the hosts are friendly.

Very lovely house
We had a wonderful time in Church Stretton staying at East cottage. The house is very central but yet quiet and secluded. David and Gill were wonderful and came to say hi at the beginning of the stay. The boiler malfunctioned but upon contacting David, he was very responsive and promptly come to fix the boiler on the same day. The house is lovely and spacious.

Great place to stay
A lovely property in a very quiet setting, yet only a few minutes walk from the centre of town. Fantastic walks from the doorstep on both sides of the valley. Church Stretton has everything you need for self catering with butcher, baker, deli and supermarket. The kitchen was very well equipped ,with a couple of omissions; a non stick pan and a can opener that worked. We would definitely return.

Great family getaway
Couldn't believe the size when we walked in. Plenty of room for us all and very cosy of an evening. Communication in advance was great and the milk, biscuits and cake was a lovely touch and much enjoyed. We enjoyed visiting Church Stretton, everywhere was a short walk from the property. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to explore Shropshire

Gorgeous gem tucked at the base of the splendid Long Mynd
A spacious, extremely well-appointed place to stay that feels so very welcoming. Sparkling with cleanliness, wonderful original character features and plenty of room for everyone and everything, we're already thinking about a repeat visit. The owners have considered every aspect of their guests' comfort and have made East Cottage an utter delight. It felt like home away from home. Spacious rooms, great kitchen and living space, practical utility room, clean and in good repair bathrooms and ample, easy car parking. Comfy beds and helpful cleaning supplies make it so comfortable and easy to stay. The location is perfect for accessing the beautiful countryside and is a minute or two from the High Street with its lovely shops and eateries. I would stay again and highly recommend it.

East Cottage review
East Cottage, Church Stretton, is a delightful place to stay. A traditional property with large, bright and airy rooms and comfortable furniture. Thick walls meant the property remained delightfully cool during exceptionally hot weather. The cottage is an excellent base for exploring a beautiful part of England. I would thoroughly recommend staying here.

Beautiful property in great location
Had a fantastic stay at Church Stretton. The cottage is beautiful and very cosy. We had a power cut after storm Arwen but things were fully restored later in the evening and we kept warm by the gas fire (and at the local pub) until things were solved. Church Stretton is a lovely place to visit with lots of great places nearby as well. The owners were very helpful sorting out issues with the alarm (post power cut) and then subsequent fuse problems very quickly. Would love to return for another visit - may need to save the pennies though as I spent lots on yarn in the fantastic crafting and knitting shops. Great food at Berry's and at the Kings Arm's in the village also enjoyed the Ludlow Farm shops.
