Why you should choose a holiday cottage in Church Stretton

Church Stretton is the ideal holiday destination for lovers of the outdoors. Situated right in the heart of the Shropshire Hills, a stay in holiday cottage in Church Stretton will see a multitude of outdoor activities available, right from your doorstep. Church Stretton is even a designated ‘Walker Friendly’ town.

Star of the show is The Long Mynd which sweeps downwards towards the town and provides many trails up its valleys and batches to the wide expanses of its summit ridge. Views from the top at Pole Bank stretch past the nearby Stiperstones to the mountains of Snowdonia – on a clear day it’s even possible to see Cader Idris, a mountain on the Welsh coast. Literally across the road are the Stretton Hills, smaller than the Mynd but sharper in profile, providing an energetic summit bagging day. None more so than the iconic Caer Caradoc, the largest of these hills and the most noble.

The Long Mynd also offers some of the best thermals anywhere in Europe which makes Church Stretton an excellent base for anyone looking to partake in a little gliding, paragliding or simply, kite flying.

There’s also a golf course situated high on The Mynd, making it one of the highest courses in all of England.

So whether it’s walking, gliding, golfing or simply just being there to enjoy the scenery, book your stay in a Church Stretton Holiday Cottage and enjoy all that the Great British outdoors has to offer in one beautiful location.
