Oakpond Cottages

Summary

Oakpond Cottages are home to our two award winning holiday farm cottages and Maggie the Showmans Waggon in North Shropshire. Both cottages have a wonderful waterside setting with lovely mature gardens and sits on 103 acres of Shropshire countryside. There is the option to hire our very relaxing hot tub which is situated in a covered room with atmospheric lighting and splendid views over the fields.

Oakwood is our other lovely cottage but this holiday cottage is located in the sleepy hamlet of Ightfield. This detached country bungalow has its own large garden and is in a very quiet spot with no passing traffic.
