Fishing Holidays in Shropshire
09-02-2010

Following a terrible winter of snow, ice and freezing winds, a visit to Hurst Farm to experience a relaxing fishing holiday in Shropshire could be just what you need to overcome weeks of runny noses, chesty coughs and sodden socks. At Hurst Farm, we provide a variety of accommodation options ranging from the ensuite twin bedrooms of our farmhouse

  • Sleeps 6
  • Downstairs twin bedroom
  • 1st floor twin bedroom
  • 1st floor twin attic room
  • 1st floor shower room & WC
  • ground floor Bathroom & WC
  • Kitchen/dining room
  • Living room

Enter from the courtyard into the hall. Left are the stairs and the twin downstairs bedroom. Opposite is the bathroom. Although this is the ground floor unlike the granary it doesn't have a walk in bathroom so it not suited for the less able, however it does mean that guests can avoid stairs making it very suitable for the elderly. On the right is the fitted kitchen with dining area, seating up to 6 people. Through the kitchen leads to the luxurious lounge area. As with the other cottages there is a separate patio and barbecue area with views over the lakes and surrounding countryside.

Upstairs is the double bedroom and shower room. There is also a twin attic room. This room is in the apex of the roof, so standing room is limited to the centre of the room. It is a room with bags of character, and makes an ideal room for kids or the more adventurous adult!

History
Built onto the granary in the 1920's, this was a purpose built dairy for what was, in those times, a large herd of about 30 cows. State of the art at the time it has been updated and modernised to keep with the times. It was used right up to the 1980's when we were milking up to 180 cows. The passage of time then finally caught up with it and the milking was moved to a purpose built modern facility on another site on the farm. The building then became a store for seed grain and feed concentrates, all of which had to find a new home when we started the conversions.
