Host review score
Underhill House is at its core an 18th century welsh farmhouse; for many years it was the Estate Managers Residence of the local Harlech Estate. Little Underhill was originally the stables of the farm. The Cottage sleeps up to eight persons. We do accept one well behaved dog - but there is a charge of 25 Pound Sterling per stay payable prior to arrival, and we do ask that you observe a few house rules - not on furniture, not upstairs, on leads in the grounds, mess cleared up. Today it is a beautifully presented four bedroom Holiday cottage with its own private garden. The bedrooms consist of a Master bedroom with Superking bed, two further bedrooms with Kingsize beds and a fourth bedroom with a bunkbed – of which the bottom tier is a double, the top, a single–so good for kids, or adults if required. The large farm house table in the Kitchen Diner comfortably seats ten, plus we have cot and high chair for an infant. There is a Utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer, whilst the kitchen features an Aga and dishwasher – as well as an induction ring for those who need it. TV, DVD and broadband come as standard. Superfast Electric Vehicle Charging is available onsite by arrangment - prices per Kwh can vary but we are confident we offer a competative rate. There’s a woodburning stove in the sitting room for those chilly winter evenings, and we supply all the logs you need as part of the package. And we have a table football game set up in the snug to get the heart racing when all the country quiet gets too much. Use of the large patio and cottage garden with its expansive lawns and beautifully tended beds is exclusive to Little Underhill - whilst there is access to the fantastic children's play area, shared with the our two bed, Courtyard Cottage, and of course our son and his friends. Please note that we do require a 200 pound sterling pre-authorised credit card damage deposit on all stays, which is de-authorised at the end of your stay.
We have now been resident in this beautiful corner of Shropshire since 2018, with our cats, our llamas, and our occasional sheep, and are beginning to feel like locals! But we continue to find something new and fresh to explore on an almost daily basis. Underhill House has proved a perfect base from which to strike out for us, and we'd love to share that with you!
We are in a quiet and beautiful spot, off a no through road disturbed only by occasional walkers, the abundant song birds, and cows and sheep in the neighbouring fields. The sleepy border town of Oswestry is two miles down the road, there is plentiful local walking - and for day trips, there are the big cities of Manchester and Birmingham, the castles and beaches of North Wales, the historic towns of Chester and Shrewsbury, or the wilds of Snowdonia.
