  • Peaceful dog-friendly working farm site in the Shropshire Hills
  • A 10-minute drive from the Stiperstones; 25 minutes to Church Stretton
  • Pub serving local ales and meals nearby; Shropshire Way trail nearby
Heading to the Shropshire Hills for mountain hikes and wild reservoir swimming? Strap in for activities in the outdoors from Hollies Farm, a peaceful working farm site in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with sublime countryside views. With the Carding Mill Valley 25 minutes’ drive away and the Long Mynd 20 minutes’ drive away, there are no shortages of hikes, some with fells, waterfalls and high summits (and The Stiperstones and the Shropshire Way both 10 minutes’ drive away for more hiking and mountain biking trails). Sip on local ales or tuck into a meal at a stone pub five minutes’ drive away (this is a 50-minute walk if you'd rather head out on foot). There’s another handy pub at the foot of the Stiperstones 20 minutes’ drive away, in case you need a refuel while out and more eateries within driving distance in Shropshire’s surrounding market towns. Don't worry too much about keeping supplies stocked up, as it’s a 20-minute drive to the nearest food shop. Or if you’d rather some fresh farm produce, there’s a farm shop 25 minutes’ drive away too. Perhaps grab some meat for the barbecue, as they’re permitted on site. Save the leftovers for your dog if you’ve brought one along, as they’re also welcome on the site.
