The property
Attached to the owner's 16th century, Grade II listed timber-framed home is the charming cottage, Top Farm Cottage, providing a couple with a traditional bolthole to enjoy in the Shropshire countryside. Near the England/Wales border and within easy reach of both Shrewsbury and Oswestry, Top Farm Cottage is ideally situated for touring all the popular attractions as well as the beautiful countryside. Enjoying an all-ground-floor layout, this rustic cottage retains some original features like the classic timber doors and the exposed beams in the ceiling. Snuggle up to your loved one on one of the plush sofas while you enjoy evening entertainment from the Smart TV, or sit at the quaint dining table and chairs and crack open a bottle of wine with dinner. A beautiful fitted kitchen brings a more contemporary feel to the dwelling, with all you need to rustle up some romantic meals for two, including an electric oven and hob. Feel the warmth from the electric underfloor heating beneath you as you move into the lovely double bedroom at the end of the day, with plenty of quality oak furniture to store your belongings in. Freshen up in the neat shower room in the morning before stepping outside to your own enclosed private courtyard for an alfresco breakfast in summer, the perfect way to begin the day! From Top Farm Cottage you can reach the amenities of Knockin on foot, with a local shop, The Knockin Shop, and a pub in the village, while the towns of Shrewsbury and Oswestry each present even more options for eateries of all kinds, with pubs, restaurants and cafés to choose from, not to mention the wonderful range of shopping from your high street favourites to local independent stores! You can plan in heaps of scenic walks and cycling outings in this beautiful area, with the Welsh lakes and mountains just over the border and the Shropshire Hills AONB to the south. The famous Offa's Dyke Path is perfect for a ramble with incredible views along the way, and pretty villages and pubs to stop in. The historic castles of Chirk, Whittington and Powis all present fabulous days out, with extensive gardens to explore and heritage to learn of.
