Vacation rentals with a fireplace in River Severn

Black Sheep Barn is an amazing place of relaxation. A cool-looking space with the most beautiful views. Tucked away in the Shropshire Hills, you won’t be disappointed if you’re looking for rest, walks and stunning scenery straight from the door and the loveliest of hosts. We especially enjoyed playing some vinyl, exploring around Brown Clee Hill and just slowing down. Nature is on your doorstep; so worth making the most of the destination.

We were so lucky to stay in this beautiful cottage for our honeymoon and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome — Ellie was incredibly friendly and thoughtful, leaving us lovely cakes to enjoy on arrival. The cottage (and its surroundings) is full of charm and just as whimsical as the pictures suggest. It was the perfect place to relax and enjoy quality time together. We also enjoyed the easy drives into Ludlow, Leominster, Tenbury Wells and local walks. We can’t thank Ellie enough for creating such a beautiful, memorable experience — we’ll definitely be back one day!

Really really loved our stay here! Such a beautiful place, with stunning views! Place was equipped with everything and more, we felt so cosy as soon as we arrived. Lovely picnic bench where we spent most of our time enjoying the views and the friendly cat was an added bonus. Thank you so much for a gorgeous stay and would definitely come back!

Emma and Ian were the PERFECT hosts, they were both so so easy to communicate with and went the extra mile with decorations for me and my partner’s anniversary. Couldn’t recommend any more highly!!!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Wordsmith’s Cottage. It was perfect for what we needed; roomy, clean and homely. We were so grateful to come ‘home’ each night after being out all day exploring.

The Cider Press Barn made an excellent base for our short holiday. We found it comfortable and well-presented with good facilities. We liked the quiet rural location, off road parking and pleasant bedrooms each with an ensuite bathroom. Rosie responded promptly to any queries and kindly left us a welcome gift of delicious local apple juice and homemade jam and gin. We visited some lovely gardens in the area including Rhodds Farm, Brobury House, Hergest Croft, Burford House and Stockton Bury, all within easy driving distance. Thanks Rosie - we really enjoyed our stay.

It’s a beautiful house with a character. It is as nice to read the history of the place . House has been maintained well. Great for families. Would definitely visit again probably for few more days next time .

Wonderful cottage for our weekend away from London! Jon was friendly and very responsive, and and we loved Jon’s place - absolutely beautiful and supremely comfortable. Jon even supplied some drinks, sweets and milk/coffee for us to use! Definitely will consider again for future weekends away.

What a lovely apartment. Spotlessly clean, well furnished and it is no wonder as the owners have an interior design company. A visit to the shop in the main house is worth a visit. We stayed in this building many years ago when it was a hotel. What a huge transformation and definitely for the better. Great location for visiting all the sites in the forest. Highly recommend and will be definitely be staying again.

Amazing location in Clifton, in the heart of Clifton. village. The flat was so quiet and peaceful at night, it was perfect!

A rejuvenating place that felt like staying in someone's warm (not just in temperature) and characterful home. We enjoyed feeling relaxed here from the moment we arrived. The surrounding fields and orchard with a river running through it was idyllic day and night. I was rewarded for being awake by the sounds of tawny owls calling back and forth. Thanks Jim and Sally for the little touches and thoughtful hosting.

A very pleasant, peaceful studio located in a wonderful area of Worcestershire. Tracey was very welcoming and helpful. With their instructions the studio was very easy to find as was the parking.

Absolutely idyllic space. Views superb. Access to double bed is a ladder so might not suit everyone. We loved it.

Lovely stay at this Airbnb, would recommend. Used as a base to visit friends. Peaceful neighbourhood and walkable to things of interest. Bed very comfy and Julian was a great host!

We really enjoyed staying in this charming former dairy cottage. The views are simply breathtaking and the ground floor apartment was very comfortable. We loved having our breakfast on the little terrace and a lie on the grass at the end of the day was very relaxing. The bed was comfortable and the shower was powerful. Attractive furnishings g made for an uplifting stay. Liz made us feel very welcome. Crickhowell a short drive away is delightful and we particularly enjoyed our lunch at The Bear. We hope to return.

We had a wonderful stay and Gwen and John's place. They were both very welcoming and everything was so comfortable. It was great to have the alpacas at the bottom of the beautiful gardens. The welcome pack was fantastic with home made jam and a loaf of bread. The location is fantatic within easy reach of the Shropshire hills and some lovely market towns such as Ludlow, Much Wenlock and Bridgenorth. Definitely looking at booking again.

the house and garden made an ideal location for a family celebration. made for a fabulous time. loved the coffee machine and arga and bbq. great space, very homely.

Lovely stay. House was spotless and very spacious. The estate has great facilities (pool, spa, tennis courts, etc) and we loved having access to the lake for paddle boarding. Would recommend the private chef from Ballihoo on the estate. Alasdair was a very helpful and responsive host.

Such a lovely stay at Lakeside Lodge, the surroundings were beautiful and our host Andrew went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. Stunning lake one side of the lodge and stunning views of the hilly countryside the other (both visible from the view in the hot tub) really could not have asked for anything more for a chilled girls trip. Could have stayed there forever!

Beautiful place felt at home as soon as we stepped in. The decor is amazing and can’t wait to come again and see the mural wallpaper

Oldbury Barn is in a lovely location in the countryside with great views (though tricky to find, so the 'what3words' helped a lot!). The house was nicely presented and lovely and clean. Plenty of pots, pans, mugs (!) utensils etc for a large family group. The open plan nature of the kitchen/diner/lounge is great for a multi generational family gathering like ours, as you are always all together in one huge room. However, note that its a tiled floor and there isn't much in the way of soft furnishings so noise echoes around a bit and can be heard from all bedrooms - but this is only a problem if you have very young kids going to bed early or getting up early! The 2 ground floor bedrooms are large and with lots of storage. The 2 upstairs bedrooms are small with very low ceilings and little storage - fine for kids but we were were 7 adults and one toddler, so that didnt work brilliantly for us . The "slight height restriction" in the description is quite an understatement!!

This clever barn conversion is quite thoughtfully designed and very comfortable inside and out. The professional level of decoration found a wonderful balance of beauty and homeyness; everything was lovely in the most welcoming way. There was lots of space for our family to spread out, and the beds and linens were excellent. As lovely as the house is, the best part by far is the view. It was absolutely stunning, rain or shine! We found ourselves drawn outside at all hours of the day to enjoy the sights and sounds around us. Just as described, there were places in the house where the wifi was spotty, and the track up through the neighboring farm to the house might be a challenge for some cars. As we had read about the property, we were not surprised and spent an absolutely wonderful week there! There were plenty of restaurants and grocery stores 10-15 minutes away in Abergavenny when we could tear ourselves away from this slice of paradise.

I have to come clean - I am an enthusiast of Penarth, the architecture of the town, the community feel, and everything about the place. Sarah's place, being among the oldest houses in the town, was a must for all the things I was looking for. Sarah herself is friendly and has clearly put a lot of herself into the house. My journey time to Penarth could have been subject to delays, being more than 500 miles... but we had good communication and met up without difficulty at the house. All in all, the house was cosy and well appointed. It also was a great base for strolling into Penarth Town centre and even, across the barrage, to Butetown and even Cardiff. I would thoroughly recommend Sara's house for your stay.

We had a wonderful time at this house on the Lower Mill Estate. Everything was as described. It was a very well-equipped house with everything we needed for our stay with our 10 month old. Our host was very responsive when we had an issue with the hot tub and got it sorted ASAP. We would recommend this place to anyone and would definitely come back again.
