Resting in the grounds of the owner’s home, with a private entrance and ample parking, Thimble Cottage rests in Meeson near Newport, and is a beautifully-presented property ideal for a couple or family looking to explore Shropshire. Park off-road and unpack with ease into this delightful cottage, where a light and airy open-plan living space houses contemporary furniture with an opulent feel. There is a well-fitted kitchen space with loads of amenities to cater to your culinary needs, with grey furniture and matching tiles, as well as a marble dining table where guests can dine together. Open the French doors in the sitting area, which overlooks paddock stretching to the Wrekin and Shropshire Hills, or remain indoors to relish in a movie marathon upon the Smart TV; there is also a double sofa bed to welcome two further guests to your party. Accessible via patio doors, the garden offers a tranquil space to recline with a glass of your favourite beverage with views across the paddock, or alternatively spend an evening indulging in a soak in the hot tub. Freshen up in the opulent bathroom, making the most of the roll-top bath or walk-in shower. Snuggle up in the tastefully presented king-size bedroom, with windows that open up, into balconies, ideal for morning coffee when the sun is shining, and a twin which can be set up as a king-size on request and has access to a quirky spiral staircase leading to the outside of the property. Thimble Cottage rests within a quaint rural location in Meeson, with views over the countryside. From here, you can head over to Tibberton where there is a local shop and pub, or Waters Upton, where there is a second convenience store and the Bharat Indian restaurant. For more amenities and many eateries, pubs, independent shops, and a golf course, visit Newport, where there is also the Aqualate Mere National Nature Reserve. Ironbridge is also within reach of the property, a town with several historical sites including Bedlam Furnaces and The Iron Bridge, as well as riverside walks, or there is the option of visiting Telford, where you will find more shops, pubs, cafes, Sky Reach High Ropes adventure course, the Telford Steam Railway, the Telford Town Park, brimming with outdoor activities, and Telford International Centre. Shrewsbury, the county town of Shropshire is also a must-visit, which sits inside a loop of the River Severn. The pretty, market town is home to 660 listed buildings and most famous for being the birthplace of Charles Darwin, the English naturalist, geologist, and biologist; his statue sits outside Shrewsbury Library, the building that was once his school. Further attractions in the area also include Weston Park, a stunning 17th century mansion, the estate of Attingham Park, and Haughmond Hill, all rich in history and character.
