We enjoyed our stay in the cottage very much. The garden is maintained to a very high standard while still presenting a natural feel. The mist rising off the water in the mornings looked very magical. If you are looking at the wood from Google Maps be aware not all of it is accessible unless you are willing to scramble up very steep slopes. The location was very quiet in terms of car traffic however I do have to mention we were "buzzed" by trainee helicopter pilots from RAF Shawbury for extended periods which was loud enough to upset the dog and disturb us. There is no mobile phone signal (O2 anyway) on the property unless you have WiFi calling enabled, although a signal did appear when standing by the wheelie bins. On the subject of the bins, they can be accessed via the garden, you do not need to walk down the narrow lane.

Bull Hollow was Heaven on earth to us. It was so secluded and tranquil, we didn’t want to leave. The house is beautiful and the gardens so impressive and beautifully maintained. There was a fantastic hamper provided on arrival, which was such a lovely touch and very much appreciated. Thank you to the owners and everyone who obviously work so hard to make this such a special place. A complete escape from the stresses of modern life. We loved it so much we have already booked for next year.

The cottage was an absolute delight. As we're the surrounding area. The cottage was immaculate, a hamper was there with milk,bread,etc. Bed sumptuous. The only faults were the shower needs changing to a more simple one. The water temperature was hit and miss and the sofa needs upgrading. Outside, you are in complete seclusion. In the woods we saw a row deer. Plenty of dipper birds and more. Great location for hill climbing and visiting beautiful towns of Much Wenlock and Church Stretton.

Magical - again - our second visit but managed to book for longer this time. Such a special, tranquil place. Hard to leave it so as to see all the interesting places on the dooorstep (Ironbridge, Much Wenlock, Ludlow, Shrewsbury etc.). Our dog was in 7th heaven in the woods and river. We brought a baby gate this time so that we could have the kitchen door open but not have a wet dog coming and going. Husband and I really love relaxing in the garden with a book and glass of wine. Totally private and peaceful. No wonder it made the top 20 cottages in the Telegraph recently (for cosy cottages for couples).

The steep (3ft max) drops to the stream are highlighted by the owners so you do have to be careful with dogs and the stairs are very narrow. That said its perfect to get away from it all, if its the sound birdsong, wind in the trees and a babbling brook its a perfect place. After visiting local towns, Much Wenlock, Ludlow, Ironbridge and Shrewsbury we made great food, drank lovely wine, read and played scrabble. It's an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of life.

Such an idyllic and peaceful place to stay. Really loved the grounds and the surrounding countryside. There was however one big downside and that being, although the cottage is dog friendly, the garden and woodland aren’t… that’s if you want to be able to let your dog/s and off the lead. The garden and grounds are not secured in any way, plus there is a steep drop down to the brook in places. Other than that, the cottage is perfect for a tranquil getaway. Will probably return there in the future, but sadly without the dogs.
