This was our 2nd visit to Gold Top Barn and we had another fabulous week. Its a very spacious and comfortable property and just has a really nice feel about it.

It was also nice to come back to the pRead moreroperty in the afternoon and sit in the garden. Loads to do in the area, and well worth a day in Shrewsbury . Station 15 mins walk from the Barn. Hide

I cannot think of anything to improve this property, it's perfect just as it is. Turn left out of the gate about a mile or so there is the White Lion pub it's community owned and is a proper pub with superb beer. It's nothing like the glorified restaurant/plastic gin palaces that masquerade as pubs these days. It's like a pub should be.
