LARCHES LODGE - Authentic Norwegian Log Cabin with log burner, hot tub, fire pit

Larches Lodge is an authentic Norwegian log cabin offering private self-catering accommodation. It is set within a secluded larch copse in the one acre gardens of our family home. Perched on the hillside, Larches Lodge has fantastic views over the picturesque town of Church Stretton, often nicknamed “Little Switzerland", and is the only market town to be found in South Shropshire's Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Larches Lodge is equipped and furnished to a high standard and can sleep up to two people.

Church Stretton town centre is an easy ten minute stroll away (approx 500m). Here you can find small shops, cafes, restaurants, a wine bar, pubs, an antiques market, golf course and railway station. The train station is a five minute walk away and can take you to the centre of medieval Shrewsbury or the historic market town of Ludlow in under 15 minutes - it is on the mainline from Cardiff to Manchester. Also within easy reach are notable sights such as the museums of Ironbridge, Stokesay Castle, Offa's Dyke, Weston Park and Buildwas Abbey to name but a few of what Shropshire has to offer.

Larches Lodge is dwarfed by the glorious backdrop of the Long Mynd, Caradoc and Carding Mill Valley all but a stones throw away. You are spoilt by many beautiful and scenic walks to suit both the less energetic and more experienced hill walkers. You will not be disappointed.

Arrival is generally after 3pm and departure by 10.30am but there is sometimes flexibility on request. Max Occupancy: 2. Smoking is allowed outside.

Although it's private the lodge is close(ish) to our family home, if you're seeking a totally peaceful and quiet retreat you may prefer Oaks Lodge which is further away. Also hot tub can make a little bit of pump noise during the night.
