Mocktree Barns are an ideal base for exploring the delightful countryside of South Shropshire, Herefordshire and mid-Wales, one of the few ‘Tranquil Areas’ left in England. Located close to the historic town of Ludlow, self-catering accommodation is available in five comfortable and well-equipped holiday cottages.

Mocktree Barns date from the 16th century and were once a set of farm buildings. They were converted to provide five distinct and individual cottages situated around a south-facing courtyard with further garden and grass areas for visitors to enjoy.

Guests are welcome to enjoy our wildlife-friendly gardens and the courtyard with tables and chairs for eating outdoors in the summer.

The properties are set in an acre of grounds with panoramic views towards the Clee Hills and beyond. Working farmland is all around, with easy access for walking provided by a network of public footpaths. Visitors are welcome to share part of the large garden and the courtyard.

The Cottages:

Jinney Ring - sleeping 4 with a comfortable small sofa bed for an additional two people.

Stable - sleeping two in a king-size double bed with space for a child's bed or cot in the bedroom.

Kit and Weavers - both single-storey cottages sleeping two people in a double bed.

Kibble Mill - a cosy two-story 'vintage' cottage sleeping two in a double bed. This delightful cottage is furnished with 'a hint of yesteryear'. All guests staying in Kibble Mill are provided with a voucher for complimentary tea and cake at the nearby Rocke Cottage Vintage Tea Rooms.

There is a selection of books and games, as well as tourist information and maps of the local area in each cottage. All are equipped with an electric cooker, microwave and full-sized fridge. Additionally, Jinney Ring has a dishwasher and fridge-freezer. All cottages have a television, radio-clock alarm and hairdryer. Wi-Fi internet access is available in all cottages.

For our young visitors we have a baby’s cot and high chair. Toys for indoor and outdoor play are available and babysitting can be arranged.

Leintwardine village, a couple of miles away, is prettily located on the banks of the River Teme. In the village there are two pubs with restaurants, an ale house and fish and chip shop. The post office, grocers, butcher, doctor’s and vet’s surgeries and the garage provide excellent local services. The church, chapel and art gallery also welcome visitors.

Whatever the season, there is plenty to do. There are great opportunities for walkers and nature lovers, anglers and bird watchers, golfers and geologists.
