Reviews of Woodpecker Cottage
"Just had a wonderful holiday at woodpecker cottage(21 to 28sept 2018) which is situated at Ludlow owned by John and Mary. This couple really go out of their way to make you welcome. On arrival we were treated to bread, milk, biscuits , welsh cakes tomatoes, cucumber and a bottle of wine. Superb start to our stay.Then the cottage it self was very well presented, spotlessly clean and very well maintained. Set in a secluded woodland with some lovely walks right outside the front door. This is a great base to visit lots of towns and villages all within a thirty mile radius. Would I recommend this cottage YES in a heartbeat. I don't know how many stars these property's can attain but I would award this eleven out of ten, and my wife and I wish John and Mary all the success for the future. Paul and Sue."
