The small rural village of Alberbury sits in pretty countryside, 9 miles from Shrewsbury. There is so much to do in this area, from the ten museums of Ironbridge Gorge to the abbey, castle, shops and restaurants of Shreswbury. There are many National Trust properties within easy reach of Alberbury, including Attingham Park, Powis Castle, Chirk Castle and Erddig. Ludlow, with its castle and timbered buildings, is a lovely town for a stroll and a refreshing cream tea, or step back in time with a trip to Acton Scott Working Farm, seen on TV as ‘The Victorian Farm'.
Reviews
"We have had a fanatastic week at Lower lodge! I would definitely give it 5 stars. The facilities are top class. The rooms were immaculate. The kingsize bed is so comfy I slept like I was at home. ( This rarely happens on holiday.) There was great attention to detail e.g. ice cubes supplied in the freezer. The owners Mark and Lisa were very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the Jacuzzi and ensuite bathrooms were a boon. Well done!"
"Wow! We have just got back from a week at Lower Lodge and it was brilliant. The house was amazing and had everything we needed for a great holiday. We ranged from 7 to 81 and there was something to keep everyone happy. The children enjoyed the games room and TV/DVD in the bedrooms whilst the adults enjoyed the lounge, hot tub and sauna. The kitchen was really well equipped and we enjoyed cooking and eating in the kitchen/dining area. It was a bonus to have plenty of bathrooms and toilets for everyone too. The garden was lovely but unfortunately due to the time of year and weather we didn't get to enjoy it as much as we would have liked but there was certainly everything we needed had the weather been kind. The owners, Mark and Lisa, were really friendly, helpful and always available if we needed them. The surrounding area was beautiful and we enjoyed day trips to the RAF Museum at Cosford (free entrance), Shrewsbury, Powis Castle which was stunning, Lake Vrywny and Pistell Falls which were also well worth a visit. We visited the local pub where we had a lovely meal and they even do a complimentary mini bus service to the house so worth a visit too. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a luxury place to have a relaxing holiday in a nice area of the country. We would love to visit again. "
"Our first stay at Lower Lodge was for two weeks in March 2015 for our Silver Wedding. We were joined by family and close friends for a few days over these weeks and had an amazing time. The accommodation was everything we expected and more. The Location was spot on for a relaxing break and the surrounding countryside was amazing. We were so happy with this accommodation that we booked another week in December. We are going for the third time, staying for another two weeks in March 2016."
"we arrived 3 days ago and couldn't be having a better time, the whole place is out of this world with the huge hot tub and the sauna it is just a total relaxation holiday the surrounding scenery is gorgeous. Mr Pugh was very welcoming from the off giving us the feeling where we could ask anything and it wouldn't be an issue Will defiantly be returning and recomending to friends and family ***** five stars"
"One word AMAZING! We have been doing a weekend away in November for the last 3 years this one by far has to be the best! Wonderful spacious accomodation, fabulous sauna and a large hot tub which accomodates all guests! The games room was fab and the outdoor games, having music that plays out in every room including outside, it truly is a perfect entertainment holiday home! We would definately recommend this place and will return one day in the future! Lemon drizzle cake on arrival was a lovely touch!"
"Have just had a fantastic week at lower lodge thanks mark for making us very welcome accommodation is 5* with all mod cons, sauna hot tub all wonderful place lovely & clean on arrival the welcome home made cake was a nice touch lots to keep kids & adults entertained & lots to visit in area love to stay again & highly recommend to all."
"We enjoyed a wonderful time at Lower Lodge; there were four adults and four teenagers, all of whom thoroughly indulged in the hot tub and sauna. The games facilities were similarly appreciated. A very well-equipped and well-maintained house, which is in a perfect location for day trips into Wales, as well as to Ludlow, Shrewsbury and Ironbridge. A definite five star recommendation."
"We had a very comfortable stay and loved the facilities on offer. Our '30 something' children had a great time playing pool, tables tennis and using the X Box. The property is in a great location to visit towns, NT properties, and many other local attractions, all within half an hour driving distance. Our only regret was we hadn't booked a second week!"
"Highly recommend this holiday bungalow. Met all of our needs as most rooms end suite.made use of huge hot tub, games area a BBQ area. They don't supply a BBQ which is a shame but we bought a cheap one as we had excellent weather. We had breakfast on the terrace facing the fields and tea/ dinner in the hot tub area. The tv,s were useful if we wanted to watch something different. There is a big smart tv in the lounge and games room which we used when we had an impromptu karaoke. Some of the part have mobility problems but that was fine as everything was on the flat. We did not have children but the garden is lovely for them to play in. All outside furniture very comfortable. We seemed to have to travel miles before we got anywhere maybe we should have prepared our visits in advance. But if you want a chilled out holiday in an exceptionally nice place you can't go wrong. Manager and his wife were great and they had left a home made cake which was delicious. We had a really good stay"
"We stayed at the house over the new year and we were not disappointed! The house was beautiful and had luxurious details such as the in house sound system/wet rooms etc. The hot tub is definitely the star of the property and really made the trip. The owners were so lovely and even gave us lifts to the local pub that they'd recommended! There's also a free mini bus service to and from the local pub which was fantastic! Really can't recommend this holiday home enough, we will definitely be returning!!"
"We stayed at Lower Lodge in the October half term this year and had a really lovely relaxing break. We were two families with four kids ranging from age 8 - 16. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house in a lovely private location. Lovely views across the countryside added to the relaxing atmosphere which has been created here. The house is very comfortably furnished and is very spacious inside and out. The hot tub is very large and we all spent a good deal of time relaxing in it in the evening, stargazing. The sauna is another luxury extra which provided even more relaxation and with the lovely robes provided, it felt like being in a private spa! As it was a bit chilly we were not able to take full advantage of the fire pit, barbecue and outdoor games, but this area was again nicely set out with comfortable seating and would provide a lovely setting for relaxing on a summer evening. The xbox360 in the playroom kept children (and adults) entertained and with a tv and dvd in all the bedrooms as well as the lounge, and the other games provided, it meant there was always something to do. The docking station enabled all of us to play our music and speakers are situated all throughout the home for you to choose where you want to play the music (even in the bathrooms!) The owners looked after us very well and even brought us torches in case of a power failure during a storm. They provided homemade cakes on arrival and did all they could to make sure our stay was pleasurable. We enjoyed our holiday here so much we have booked to go back next year and would thoroughly recommend this holiday home. A lovely house, in a beautiful private setting, with great amenities, at a reasonable price. Definitely worth a visit."
