Having only arrived as a team relatively recently at the time of our visit in May 2024, the hosts/landlords were still settling in themselves and (as they told us) they still had one or two repairs to make and wrinkles to sort out. That said, although because of those wrinkles we haven't been able to give them an excellent rating for the facilities or comfort, the hotel was still more than good enough. The lady of the house was extremely pleasant and very helpful and Breakfast was better than OK.

The hut is beautiful, great location in the countryside but close enough to Church Stretton to enjoy the local eateries. Great facilities, I loved the lake/pond very relaxing to swim in. Bed was very comfortable and we both slept very well. We had a brilliant time and would definitely like to stay again some time!
Great centre for a walking holiday in the Shropshire Hills.

Church Stretton has everything you need - pubs, cafes,...
Church Stretton has everything you need - pubs, cafes, bakeries, restaurants and a large well-stocked Coop supermarket. The Kings Head was particularly cosy after a long walk, with free hot sausage rolls at 5pm. The Jaipur Indian restaurant has tasty good value dishes and you take your own alcohol. The surrounding area is easy to walk to from the town and the views are spectacular. Everything is in walking distance.

Lovely town and surrounding countryside is beautiful.
Lovely town and surrounding countryside is beautiful. Bucks Head Hotel is next to the church which has a clock that chimes all night. So one of our party who had a room on the church side of the Bucks Head had a disturbed nights sleep.
The town has some great pubs locally and a number of excellent cafes in the town.

Church Stretton is dying.
Church Stretton is dying. We have been going every September since 2010 but this year was the worst. It used to be a thriving place bit since lockdown and HF Holidays taking over the Long Mynd Hotel it has gone into terminal decline. The Kings Arms is a nice pub and decent food but that is about it. A great pity for locals and tourists alike.

Lovely town surrounded by beautiful countryside.
Lovely town surrounded by beautiful countryside.
Good access by road or rail.
Great Co-op. Plenty of parking. Free between 6pm and 8am and on a Sunday.
Everyone friendly and helpful.
Good meals at the Kings Arms and the Ragleth Inn in Little Stretton a short drive away. Also visited the Green Dragon where food looked good too. Can sit inside or out.
Can just wander around the town- nice independent shops or visit many different places within a short distance.

Everything was as one would hope for.
Everything was as one would hope for. Food was very good except for us portions were to generous.
All the staff were very helpful and very friendly.
The breakfasts were very good, with a good selection.
Again dinner was too generous with quantity of food.
Quality of food of both Breakfast and dinner was very good. The security of getting into your room, in that the door leading to the upstairs had a combination lock.
Also you obviously needed your room key to access your room. Generous car parking for all using the Yew Tree.
The area was great for walking with many hills and footpaths.
The only downside was there could have been moor hooks on the back of doors within the room and bath room door.

Our breakfast was more than adequate with plenty of choice of food and drinks, was a pleasant change to find my favourite morning drink of peppermint tea, also filter coffee for my husband. The house was in a great area close to the shops and starts of walks. Suzanne and Mark were very friendly but unobtrusive. Bathroom and shower were fabulous and the bed really comfortable. We would choose this place again if we visit Church Stretton in the future.
Comfortable and clean rooms and everything you would expect from a hotel of this nature, with a separate entrance to the rooms without going through the bar. Coffee, tea making facilities, together with bottled water available in rooms. Staff made you welcome. Location excellent in middle of Church Stretton, so everything in walking distance.
Located in the heart of Church Stretton, the Bucks Head Hotel manages to pack a lot of rural charm into a relatively small building. The new owners of the hotel have taken great strides to improve it since they took over management from the previous proprietor. Overall, a great place to stay if you’re looking to explore the Shropshire area.
Nice inn right in the centre of Church Stretton. Good food, both in the evening and for breakfast. The new owners are very keen to please. There were some booking problems when I tried to book online (end of March 2024), so you may want to phone the hotel to confirm that they have received the booking.
The location was excellent. We walked out of the front door and there was a path to the hills and another to the town. The shops were five minutes away. There were plenty of good places in Church Stretton to get coffee and even cooked breakfasts. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable.
Location was perfect for walking into Church Stretton or for car journeys, the A49 was close by.
The hosts kindly provided eggs,milk,biscuits, breakfast cerials and beer which was a lovely surprise and greatly appreciated.
The cottage was spacious,comfortable and very well equipped.
Immaculate room, big bathroom, great location in the centre of church stretton, and a friendly, covid-safe operation. Due to this, breakfast isn't cooked, but it's left outside your room and there are lots of options. Good value for money too - couldn't ask for more.
Church Stretton is a lovely town and a brilliant base for a walking holiday. Bromley Court is in a residential area, some 10 mins or so walk from pubs, cafes and Coop supermarket. Walks start almost at the door step. The property has allocated off street parking.
