This is a fantastic, top quality, unique apartment, with everything you can possibly need provided by the friendly owners Pat and Gary. It has a very large living area and adjoining modern kitchen, a separate bedroom with comfortable double bed and en-suite modern bathroom. There is also another bedroom. Outside there is a parking place available. It is situated in a lovely peaceful village a couple of miles outside Craven Arms and we found it very well placed for all the lovely walks in the area. The apartment is excellent value for money. I would highly recommend staying here, you will not regret it. We shall return for more visits without a doubt.

Our stay at The Gallery was absolutely delightful. We received a warm welcome from Pat and Gary, who took the time to show us how everything worked and let us know where they were if we needed anything. There was also homemade cake, teabags, coffee and milk waiting for us. The accommodation was absolutely beautiful: immaculately clean, bigger than it had appeared in photos and a gorgeous blend of modern and traditional. The kitchen and bathroom equipment seemed very new and of a very good quality. The kitchen was well stocked with high quality pots, pans and pretty much everything else you could need! The information booklet was very handy, and I felt like Pat and Gary had taken the time to think of everything a guest could want or need and cater to it. This stay was excellent value for money. The Gallery has a lovely atmosphere, and the surrounding countryside is beautiful. This really is the ideal place to get away for total relaxation and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

A beautifully converted granary, sympathetically restored to a very high spec'. The décor and furnishings were excellent. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. It was everything you would need for a holiday, and more. The very helpful and pleasant owners were on site.

This was a really excellent property, very tastefully restored and to a very high specification.The location made a very quiet retreat to come back to, but was nevertheless central to all the towns and attractions that we wanted to visit.We loved it all (except the weather!)

The apartment was wonderful, it felt like a home from home. It is beautifully appointed with lots of character. The area was good for culture and walking, loved Ironbridge. It was handy for shops and other amenities.

This excellently converted malt store was done to the highest standard. The kitchen was fully fitted including a dishwasher and had everything you needed including dishwasher tablets. The beds were comfy and the pillows well supporting. Bathroom had an ample space shower for the larger person. The features of low beam and wheel looked great but caution is needed not to hit your head. There is also a utility room with freezer, washing machine and sink (boot cleaning). We found plenty to do in the area which we will be writing reviews about. The owners gave a warm welcome and was always at hand to offer any help if required.
