“The nearest earthly place to paradise”

On arrival at Nest Holiday Hideaway, it’s easy to see why the author PG Wodehouse said these words of Shropshire.

A clutch of boutique holiday cottages perfectly positioned in the walker’s wonderland of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Nest Holiday Hideaway provides a sanctuary of serenity, stunning scenery and a truly beautiful base from which to explore, whilst also being near to Shropshire’s magnificent market towns and myriad unique attractions.

The philosophy of Nest Holiday Hideaway is ‘Transformational Travel’, a rural retreat where you can unplug, de-stress, relax and revitalise, embedded in beautiful surroundings and the sights and sounds of nature. The elevation at our position on the Shropshire Hills’ magnificent Long Mynd & Carding Mill Valley range (pictured above) is nearly 300 metres, the air is noticeably cleaner and crisper, and a sense of the Alpine awaits.

The Nest holiday cottages are beautiful boltholes of immense character and charm, uniquely and lovingly created from 18th century barns and peacefully set in perfect countryside, with a wealth of wood beams, exposed stonework and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Elegantly and eclectically furnished with antiques, vintage pieces and William Morris fabrics, Nest’s holiday cottages also boast romantic wood burning stoves and all modern conveniences, including WiFi, Now TV, well-appointed kitchens with dishwashers, and luxurious all en-suite bathrooms with rain showers.

Discover the Shropshire Hill’s spectacular countryside — including Nest’s home range of the Long Mynd & Carding Mill Valley, Caer Caradoc, The Lawley and Stiperstones Nature Reserve — from your holiday cottage door, on foot or by bike.

You’ll be 3/4 mile from the ancient village of Picklescott, with the quintessentially English 17th century inn and eatery The Bottle and Glass; just 4 miles from the quaint Shropshire Hills market town of Church Stretton — known as Little Switzerland; 10 miles from the ancient riverside market town of Shrewsbury – first settled by 7th century Saxons and the birth place of Charles Darwin; 20 miles from mediaeval Ludlow, the gastronomic capital of Shropshire; and 22 miles from Ironbridge – World Heritage Site, birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and home to the wonderful Gorge Museums and Blists Hill working Victorian town.
