I rarely give 5 Stars but St Johns cottage richly deserves them. Beautifully decorated, excellent facilities with a relaxing atmosphere. . The cottage is in a quiet location right by Ludlow walls with only minutes to walk into the town centre. Ive had a lovely weeks break there so to be recommended.

A most unusual cottage very old and quaint and romantic for a couple for any age except the elderly or disabled because of the stairs which are steep also there is no upstairs toilet. Otherwise I very much recommend it and had a happy few days there.

Beautiful cottage with quirky decoration that complimented its age and character perfectly. Only a couple of minutes walk from Ludlow's shops and eateries with stunning walks along the river and around Ludlow Castle, dog friendly pubs in abundance and the town's history proudly on display, our stay in St John's Cottage was everything we had hoped iRead moret would be. Thank you to Patricia for all her advice and for sharing this wonderful place with us. Hide

Really cosy and quirky cottage. Excellent location and very comfortable accommodation. Ludlow is favourite destination and this cottage was a quiet retreat yet within 2 minutes of the market square. Would recommend The Wheatsheaf at the end of the lane and The Tavern just around the corner on Old Street. Patricia was very communicative and helpful.Read more Would love to return if available Hide

It was a beautiful and cosy Stuart period property. Perfectly located for the historic town centre. The hosts were generous and informative. The church is delightful and the castle worth a visit. Lots of lovely walks and pubs. Well worth a stay.

We had a lovely time at St John's Cottage, and Ludlow. The cottage is a delightful property with all you need in a great location. Ludlow is a wonderful town and everything is within walking distance. A nice little back courtyard, very safe and secure for our small dog and a glass of prosecco in the evening. Ps, we had the hottest week of the year Read moreso far. Hide
