We booked The Oaks for a family weekend to celebrate my husband 's 70th birthday with our children, their spouses and grandchildren. What a stunning location on the side of Long Mynd - a real escape from everything. The house was perfect for our family of 10 - of all ages. The grandchildren loved the playroom upstairs. There was a lovely welcome hamper with additional items in the fridge and bowl of fruit. The whole house was cosy warm. We also hired a hot tub which was a very welcome addition and went down a treat. All in all, a wonderful family experience and the organisation by Rural Retreats was second to none. Very highly recommended.
Fantastic house in a stunning location. It was brilliant for a gathering of friends, plenty of space for 10 and a great layout downstairs. The master bedroom in particular is gorgeous with lots of space. The location and views were truly fantastic with gorgeous walks from the doorstep. If you are taking a dog, it’s worth noting the owners will not permit more than one (even If you ask nicely!) and you are asked to restrict the dog to the kitchen and hallway which is not ideal (and unnecessary given the space and flooring type downstairs) and it’s for this reason alone that we would not return. Everything else was superb!
Comfortable and well maintained house in an absolutely perfect position for walking on the Longmynd, the Lawley and the Carodoc. Very comfortable and well equipped. It is dog friendly but I had not realised that once you arrive, there is a sign asking visitors to restrict dogs to the hall /utility/ kitchen area. No problem with that, but if you have a dog who is used to spending evenings with you in the TV/lounge areas, you may have a small problem.
The family loved The Oaks. It is spacious, light, very well equipped, very clean, lovely location, peaceful. They want to book again fir next year.
An excellent venue for a family get-together celebrating a 70th birthday. Lots of room for adults and children alike without getting under each other’s feet as most of the time was spent indoors due to the atrocious weather
Fantastic house in a beautiful area
Very homely and comfortable and loved the Aga! The location and surroundings were beautiful. Great to be able to walk out of the front door straight into the hills.
Fantastic house and location!
A wonderful location. Very comfortable house.
Lovely location. Well maintained and well fitted accommodation. Clean and ready for use. Minor fault with water supply to showers, low pressure. Owner corrected ASAP. Several of the lights in downstairs rooms had failed and need attention. Bulb replacement was not a cure.
Great location. Excellent house. Would be even better if there was a bread bin and 10 chairs for the dining room table rather than six plus an uncomfortable bench. Heating was on timer but radiators never got hot. Fortunately we were blessed with exceptionally warm weather,
Great house in a beautiful location
Beautiful big house, glorious views , excellent preparation of the rooms and welcome hamper. Highly recommended for a family get together.
Comfortable well appointed house in beautiful setting
Superb setting,ideal for a family gathering.
Beautiful house garden and countryside. well kept and plenty of utensils in kitchen. we were welcomed with a lovely hamper of goodies,and the house was warm which was nice as we arrived on a chilly day. The bed linen was immaculate and towels with toiletries were placed on all beds.we had the best long weekend with our family and would highly recommend this property.
Property was excellent - well equipped and in a great location for our party to enjoy walking and sightseeing.
We enjoyed our week at The Oaks very much. The views from all the windows were stunning and the fact you could walk straight from the house was a huge bonus. Church Stretton was close and useful for additional supplies. We would thoroughly recommend staying here.
Very comfortable and well equipped house in an idyllic location. Very clean and spacious with tasteful furnishings. It also has plenty of bathrooms so perfect for a larger party.
An absolutely stunning and spacious home, in a beautiful setting. We had a lovely family holiday here and would highly recommend it.

As all restrictions have been lifted across the United Kingdom, you are no longer legally required to self-isolate upon a positive Covid-19 result. You won’t be asked to take daily tests or isolate following contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. This means, if you would like to modify or cancel your booking due to Covid-19, our normal terms and conditions now apply.
If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
