Tucked away on the side of Church Bank, just 1/2 mile from the centre of Clun you will find Thomas Cottage. With luxuriously appointed en-suite rooms, mouth-watering breakfast and fabulous views this peaceful bed and breakfast is a special place to stay.
A warm welcome awaits you on arrival in this delightful corner of South Shropshire, along with complimentary tea and cake in the guest breakfast room. Once you have made yourself at home, feel free to wander out to the garden to enjoy the stunning views down the valley, or take a stroll down to Clun to see the ancient pack horse bridge and seventeenth century almshouses and gardens. Of course there is Clun castle to explore and the winding river complete with geese and some of the loveliest ducks. Guide books on Clun and the surrounding area, as well as maps of Shropshire, are available from the breakfast room for guests to use during their stay.
