Meet 'Isle B There'
1st May 2014
Meet 'Isle B There' (say 'I'll be there') who appeared with no fuss and bother at ten pm and was up and suckling within the hour.
Both the mare and foal still doing well even with people popping their noses over the stable door to have a look. Also on the 18th of the month we held our 15th fun ride, the weather was lovely, near record numbers attended and together we raised £5,000 for local charities, so a big thank you to all those who helped make the day so special.
This was the most wonderful place to bring a horse. We rode out each day for two hours on the estate without putting foot on a road. Wonderful canters on the banks of the Severn, on headlands and across grassland. If we'd wanted to, we could have jumped any number of cross country fences, used the indoor or outdoor arenas or had a lesson. The bedroom was perfect too, very comfortable and a flask of milk provided for our early morning tea. Breakfast delicious. Hosts Ros and Edward extremely helpful and very friendly, nothing too much t...

My stay at The Isle Estate was first rate and I regretted that it was for just two nights. The house and accommodation are charming, comfortable, and with real character, and my hosts could not have been more warm, welcoming and accommodating. Breakfasts were expertly prepared using high quality local ingredients and the evening meal on my first night was similarly excellent with fresh vegetables from the garden and a very generous portion of chicken from a neighbour. I have every intention of returning when I have more time availabl...

A beautiful house, great food, welcoming environment, friendly, knowledgeable and very hospitable hosts... all set within the stunning Shropshire countryside. A thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing break.

We have stayed here many times before and this is our third different room. This time a view over the river with the horses feeding and running happily around the fields, geese and guinea fowl wandering around freely. All rooms are fabulously decorated and in a charming comfortable way. All the beds are really really comfy too. Breakfast is the best and I compare this to other hotels of high quality - and this IS the best. Ros and Edward and family are warm welcoming hosts. Why stay anywhere else? We will be back again for sure.

If you are looking for something a little different, affordably decadent... and down a rather long track, The Isle Estate in Shrewsbury is certainly worth a visit. It's run by an absolutely charming family, who went out of their way to make us feel special. Natural hosts. Rooms were spotless, comfortable and peaceful. Coffee was excellent and breakfast was delicious. Can't comment on dinner as we ate out in town. Sadly only stayed for one night, but will wrack brain to think of an excuse to book in again. A fabulous and un-expec...
