About this house sitting position in Shrewsbury
We live in a 16th century farm house, situated in the middle of beautiful countryside and accessed by a long private drive. A car is a must as we're a 10 minute drive from the nearest village shop and 15 from a large supermarket, chemist etc. We have a large garden with lawns, an orchard full of fruit trees and a big vegetable and soft fruit area.. Our house has beamed ceilings and is full of character. There's a log burner in the kitchen & oil fired central heating. A recent addition is a sun room with bifold doors into the garden and floor to ceiling windows taking in the
amazing views, reaching up to the Peak District. We have a new downstairs shower room and a family bathroom upstairs.
The Shropshire Way runs close to us and there are many nice walks possible from the house. The Shropshire hills are nearby and the town of Shrewsbury is less than half an hour
away, with Ludlow a little bit further.
We have 2 black & white rescue cats, Duffy & Bosco, who are 3 years old. They have the run of the house, garden and farmland and are extremely sweet and friendly. They tend to be fed on an ad hoc basis. They don't have litter trays, preferring to use mole hills!
We love the very quiet, very beautiful, rural location. Read more...
