We love walks over Loton Park seeing the deer and the views up to The Windmill pub.
For us, it’s going to be tough to find as good a location as Red Abbey Barns is situated with Shrewsbury town, Welshpool, Oswestry and the shopping complex of Meole Brace all being a short drive away but being able to come back to our idyllic rural surroundings away from all the everyday hustle and bustle."
