Malt House is a splendid Grade II listed building in the town of Bishop’s Castle, Shropshire. It is perfect for a family or a group of friends as it boasts original beams, an electric fire, a private garden terrace and is on the doorstep to several amenities. Step inside this delightful three-storey cottage that you can call your holiday home, and you’ll be struck straight away by its character, with original beams on show throughout and Velux windows bringing brightness and charm to every level. On the lower ground floor, you’ll find the kitchen and dining room, a practical yet welcoming space with modern appliances and a dining table, perfect for rustling up hearty meals to share together. The first floor is home to a spacious living and dining room, where two inviting sofas and a dining table create plenty of space for everyone to gather. An electric fire adds warmth to the evenings, while the Smart TV, a collection of books, and family games invite you to spend quality time together. From here, patio doors open onto an enclosed terrace garden which offers a charming extension of the living space, complete with furniture where you can enjoy lazy breakfasts in the sun or unwind with a glass of wine in the evening. Heading upstairs, the bedrooms are spread across the first and second floors, each boasting Velux windows that flood the rooms with natural light. The first is a double, while the second floor offers another double with its own en-suite basin and WC, as well as a spacious family room. A ground-floor shower room with a walk-in shower, basin, heated towel rail and WC ensures everyone has their own space to get ready for the day. A shop and a pub are close by for any essentials or a meal out. When you venture out in Stokesay, you can wander through the beautifully preserved Stokesay Castle, admire the timber-framed gatehouse, and enjoy walks across the Shropshire Hills for sweeping countryside views. Over in Welshpool, step aboard the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway for a nostalgic steam journey, tour the grand Powis Castle with its world-famous gardens, or explore the Montgomery Canal for peaceful waterside strolls. A visit to Ludlow brings plenty of charm too, as you can discover the rich history of Ludlow Castle, sample local produce at the bustling Ludlow Market, and take in the stunning architecture on a wander through its historic streets, often described as some of the finest in England. Malt House is the most ideal destination for combining historic charm with intrigue and adventure.
