About Wayside Lodge

Wayside Lodge is a cozy single-storey wooden lodge in Aston on Clun, Shropshire. This peaceful retreat sits on a small campsite with incredible access to the stunning Shropshire Hills AONB. Perfect for walkers looking to explore some of England's most beautiful countryside without the crowds you'd find in the Lake District. Who needs the masses anyway?

The surrounding area offers endless walking opportunities through rolling hills and quiet valleys. Just 3 miles from Craven Arms and about 10 miles from both Ludlow and Church Stretton, you're perfectly positioned to explore these market towns. The private hot tub is ideal for soothing tired muscles after a day tramping through the hills. Nothing beats sinking into those bubbles with a glass of something strong!

The accommodation features two bedrooms - one double with en-suite basin and WC, plus a twin room that can be made into a double on request. There's a separate shower room with walk-in shower. The open-plan living space includes a kitchen, dining area and sitting area with a proper woodburning stove for cozy evenings. Everything's on one level, making it accessible for everyone.

Local attractions include Stokesay Castle (4 miles, 10 mins), Ludlow Castle (10.5 miles, 20 mins), Croft Castle and Parkland (15 miles, 30 mins) and Berrington Hall (18 miles, 35 mins). These historic sites offer fascinating glimpses into the region's past and beautiful grounds to explore.

Wayside Lodge Reviews

Shareen

The site managers were lovely especially the male, both were approachable and friendly. The accommodation was warm and comfortable. There were no accessible hoover, brush or mop to be able to clean. We took our dog and it would have been nice to have been able to clean the floor after our walks. The Hot tub smelled very strong of cloreen that it stung our eyes, we even told them not to attend to it for the last 2 days. During our week stay we only used the Hot tub 3 times which was part of the reason for booking that location. When the jets were on in the Hot tub black bits came out and were floating about, we even had to buy a net to try to clean the black bits out. When we arrived we were informed that the games room and bar area was closed. This was disappointing as we had two 12 year olds with us who was looking forward to the games room. We were left a folder with how to work things in the accommodation, however the Wifi code never worked to either of the log ins given resulting in two very board children. The Sky TV was our saving although this was still limited. The log fire was lovely but again there were nothing to light it with and we had to go a purchase a lighter to light it.

My family including my dog had an amazing stay here. It was very clean and the hot tub was clean and properly maintained too. We did have an issue trying to connect to the WiFi here so we just used our data but Im sure it would have been sorted out if we asked. Also the cabin is on a camping site which wasnt stated on Sykes site, but that wasnt a problem as it was nice and quiet in the evenings. We also discovered a wasp nest at the back of the cabin which we brought to the attention of Ian the owner So all in all we had great break away and would definitely go back again.
