The Old Dairy

The Old Dairy at Dovecote Barn The Old Dairy at Dovecote Barn

Rural retreat for two in the Shropshire countryside. 

Once a milking shed - The Old Dairy has been lovingly converted in the summer of 2019 into a one bedroom, self-contained, tucked away holiday space. Original oak trusses span the living space and the very comfortable 5' foot bed is raised up into the roof space. Below is a shower room with  hand made tiles from a local Shropshire potter. 

Underfloor heating and a wood burning stove with logs supplied mean the Old Dairy is both cosy and romantic and makes a perfect, self-catering retreat for 2 people.

 

I live next door in Dovecote Barn, however, The Old Dairy is a completely self-contained wing of our home.  It has its own entrance and the front door key can be accessed via a key safe.

2 night minimum stay in The Old Dairy - £95 a night.

If you would like to book for longer - some people have come for a month or more , you are welcome to share my washing machine, dryer and freezer in my utility room.  The Old Dairy opens into the utility room - large yellow room in images below.

There is also an electric oven in the utility room.

Only ten minutes away by car, the medieval market town of Shrewsbury is a little-known gem which is simply a wonderful place to shop and wander around.  Birthplace of Charles Darwin Shrewsbury has many independent shops and cafes and over 600 listed buildings - all make it an interesting place to spend some time exploring. 

Perfect location if you are visiting Shropshire for a wedding at Pimhill - as this is 3 miles away or Rowton Castle that is 7 miles away.
