Birchwood House is set over three floors and guests enjoy the privacy of the complete ground floor, to themselves. Guests can park right in front of the entrance to the accommodation and via this private entrance, you enter the hall. The bedroom and en-suite bathroom are located off the hall and a self contained kitchenette is further down the hallway (please note the kitchenette is very well equipped but does not have a hob or oven). The kitchenette is however, furnished with a fridge, microwave, toaster, and kettle etc. The accommodation is suitable and designed to be very comfortable for two adults. Birchwood House is 250m from the centre of Church Stretton. The railway station and A49 are close: providing easy access to the surrounding Town and beautiful hills. Directions: Clive Avenue is off Watling Street South & Birchwood House is the first property on the left.
Suzanne, is your host and owns the property. Raised in Church Stretton, Suzanne has great knowledge of the area and knows the best places to eat, visit and walk etc. As many people come to walk in Church Stretton Suzanne, and her husband Mark, have many local walks written down, so that guests can choose the walk that suits them, just ask when you arrive!
Church Stretton - set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is a perfect place to relax, unwind and explore. There is lots to do in and around Church Stretton, local markets, historic buildings, a world heritage site, sports and recreation facilities - are all on your doorstep.
