Black Lion Barn is amazing, as are hosts Iona and Dan. The Barn is stunning and every last detail is catered for, and it’s the little details that count. Tea, coffee, logs for the burner, all the kitchen essentials - all you need is food, drink and walking boots. Couldn’t recommend it enough. 12 of us in the party, 3 families with kids from 10-14. Table football, ping pong and room full of bean bags kept them entertained and we all had an amazing time. Thank you

Had everything we needed for our weekend away. Really enjoyed the table tennis and table football tables. Also loved the the large dinning room table as it meant we could all sit and have group meals together. Would definitely stay again. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed and Iona the host was very accommodating during our stay. Thank you

The barn was great for a big family get together. Plenty of space but still cosy and homely, spotlessly clean and with all the home comforts. Beds were really comfortable and had good quality bedding which makes all the difference. Location was stunning with beautiful views and walks on the doorstep. I have stayed in a lot of holiday rentals, this is one of the best.

We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful property. The facilities were second to none and it was perfect for our large family celebration with the yoga studio/games room a perfect place for the kids to play. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful both in the lead up to our stay and throughout. Will definitely return.

Black Lion Barn is a great place for a family celebration. We had plenty of space to celebrate an 80th birthday with close family and all the facilities to cater for large family dinners. Our teenage kids (and some of the adults) thoroughly enjoyed having table tennis and table football in their own TV room. The barn is kept to a high standard and set in a beautiful location. We also found plenty to do in Shropshire and said we would love to go back.

“We had a brilliant time at the cottage, it could not have been better.” From the small details such a the Christmas tree and Prosecco on arrival to ensuring that we had enough wood for the log fire - everything was perfect! The cottage itself was beautiful and the hosts could not have been more helpful! Will definitely be returning - 10/10!!

You have done a fantastic job converting the barn into a super, comfortable, stylish retreat. I loved the different colours in the bedrooms and the kitchen and lounge area is superb – you’ve thought of everything!
