About & Contact

Family focused ideal for Multi Generational groups

Buttercups & Hayloft offers thoughtfully designed accommodation across two cottages, specifically aimed at the larger gatherings of family & friends and multi generationla holidays. Sleeping 16 and 3 cots with 9 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and with a spacious and comfortable atmosphere throughout. Both cottages are very well-appointed and are thoughtfully designed with everything your guests might need during their stay.

To keep all of your guests, of all ages enterained, we have excellent onsite facilities including exclusive shared use of the Indoor Heated Swimming Pool, Multi Sports Court and Under 5's Area, along with access to the Football Field,  Picnic Area, BBQ's, Bird Watching and Star Gazing Areas, Oak Acre Avenue On site Parking, EV Charging Points, Drying Room, Free WiFi and many great countryside walks.

Buttercups sleeps 10 guests and 2 cots across 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms (2 ensuite) and Hayloft sleep 6 guests and 2 cot across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 ensuite).

Both cottages are also Pet Friendly and both have enclosed patios and gardens. There is excellent walking right on your door step with The Shropshire way running through the farm, along with the Shropshire Union canal just down the road and the SSSI Whixall & Mosses site close by. Locally we have excellent cycling too, with an on site Bike Store.

For those who enjoy a round of Golf we have, Hill Valley Golf Club, just 4 miles away, Hawkstone Park Golf Club, just 9 miles away & Carden Park Golf Club just 14 miles away, so all within a 30 min drive!!

We have a brand new Indoor Padel Centre just a 2 minute walk from the cottages. It has 2 double courts and 2 singles court and supplies all of the equipment you require. You do need to book your court before your arrival.

Dining for your 16 guests is located in Buttercups, which has picturesque views over the Shropshire landscape through our floor to ceiling windows. Enjoy lingering over long dinners or celebration lunches where conversations flow as easily as the wine, whilst the children all watch a movie or play games in the spacious sitting room.

Both kitchen's are exceptionally well equipped and have everything you will need to cater for a large group of all ages. There is also access to outside Chefs that can deliver anything from a 3 course meal to a wonderful Afternoon Tea to your door!!

Locally we have some great group Attractions & Activities, including, Alderford Lake Aqua Park, Doodle Alley Pottery Painting, Rednall Go Karts, Hawkstone Follies walking trails or the thrills and spills of  Bewilderwood or The Crocky Trail for the younger ones !! There are plenty of walks and cycle rides right on your doorstep; Along with many Castles, Historic Houses and places of interest to visit as well!

Our charming local market town of Whitchurch is just 2 miles away, and is a wonderful place to visit, with an array of delightful artisan shops & boutiques, bakeries and coffee shops along with the fantastic Antiques Emporium, where you can while away the hours.

For the adults there are several wine bars, restaurants and traditional Pubs. For family groups there are some excellent family friendly places to eat including The Bull & Dog and the Combermere Arms.

Whitchurch has a Farmer's Market on the first Saturday of every month.

Having the two cottages is ideal, as if Buttercups becomes a little hectic for some, then guests can relocate to Hayloft for some quiet time infront of the woodburning stove, or read quietly in the spacious garden patio area.

These Georgian Barns have been lovingly converted, keeping many original features of open beams and brick trusses, but have a modern feel through their fixtures and fittings. 

Buttercups & Hayloft are the perfect cottage combination for that larger group get away, celebration or Multi generational Holiday, filling the needs of all ages.
