Middle Farm and Cottages – April Availability Offers

Three 16th-century cottages on a working Shropshire farm, with big skies, quiet surroundings and time to properly switch off.

Middle Farm and Cottages are a collection of three restored self-catering holiday cottages in Shropshire, set on a small holding in the heart of the countryside. They offer a gentle pause from everyday pace, with space to settle in and switch off. Days unfold slowly here – stepping outside to open fields and grazing animals, wandering down to the meadow by the stream, or simply enjoying the stillness.

Owner Amy is offering a £100 discount off a 3 night stay or more in April only for either Daisy’s Place or The Barn with code April100
