A E Houseman once wrote that Shropshire was "the quietest place under the sun" and today the county remains something of a rural idyll, recognised as one of the least crowded and most peaceful regions in England.

Reviews

What a beautiful place. The views are amazing with fantastic walks on the doorstep. The owners were very friendly and helpful and we loved seeing the newborn calf. The house is very comfortable and has everything that you need, we would definitely come again.

We booked for the Christmas period and were delighted to receive a warm welcome from the owners who were always ready to assist at any moment. Much information was available about the local surroundings and walkways. Huglith Farm offers the chance to relax in beautifully secluded, country surroundings and I would highly recommend it for families of all ages.
