The Boundary Annex Reviews

Philip
Fabulous cottage in beautiful quiet location. Gilbert and Emma could not have been more friendly and helpful. Highly recommended
We absolutely loved our break at the Boundary Annex! Gilbert welcomed us on arrival and was really helpful. The cottage has everything that you could need for your break and the Hot Tub was amazing! There are some beautiful walks near the cottage so we didnt end up using our car at all during our stay. We had 2 dogs with us and there was plenty of room for us all. Fabulous cottage and would highly recommend!
Such a fabulous property with everything you could need. Lovely and clean with a warm welcome. The annex is beautifully situated with stunning views across the countryside and plenty of room for 2 dogs and me. The outside spaces were secure for a GSP cross and a cocker spaniel and plenty of local walks to boot. The hot tub was lovely to enjoy any time of day or weather and maintained every day! Its the thoughtful little things that make this place too spare dog brushes, dog bowls, cooking oil, gas BBQ so no need to bring charcoal, washing line and pegs and the little welcome gifts etc. Even though the owners are next door you wouldnt know it friendly and welcoming but unobtrusive. The only thing Id recommend is a USB adapter plug so really that says it all. Perfect. Highly recommended, it wont disappoint.
Elizabeth
We loved our stay, the cottage is wonderfully secluded with beautiful views. The accommodation was very clean and very comfortable. It was equipped with everything we needed.
What a fantastic few days away in this beautiful cottage. Views are amazing. Lovely touch from Gilbert to have a chilled bottle of wine and chocolates for us on arrival. Love the place to bits. Hot tub was perfect
Stephen
We had a wonderful stay at the annex, it was everything it said it was. Clean , comfortable, great facilities, great views and the owner Gilbert was the perfect host. We will definitely be booking again.
Antony
We throughly enjoyed our stay here. The family could not have been any more helpful.
Gilbert is a lovely man Owner. We had a great relaxing stay.
Friendly greeting from owner Gilbert and everything you need in this tranquil and peaceful cottage. 5 star rating from us.
Had a great, relaxing break at the Boundary Annex. Our welcome was very friendly and we were made to feel very at home. Gilbert and Emma are great hosts, really helpful. The location is great, easy reach of some lovely villages and towns, the theme for our week was historic villages, castles and lovely countryside. We had a lazy week, but there are loads of lovely interesting walks nearby if you want to earn the use of the hot tub. We loved the tranquility, and watching all the birds, this was the escape from the city we were hoping for.
Jillian
I can happily say that we loved this place. There was perfect space for a couple and 2 dogs. The lounge was airy with lovely large window for admiring the view. All the facilities were spot on,there was nothing we felt we were short of. Our evening walk up the lanes was beautiful, the lambs and pheasants in abundance,fascinating for our Springers. All in all a wonderful,quiet break. Thankyou Gilbert and Emma,we hope to return soon.
Compact and comfy.
This was are second stay and was as good as the first time lovely property dont be put off from how small it looks from the outside its very spacious with high ceilings and good use of space. Lovely and warm and welcoming. Its a great base for a walking holiday rain or sunshine. Nice long walk get home and ether get in hot tub or next to a fire. Very dog friendly.
A cosy cottage in a great position. The owners are lovely people.
Angela
We had a fantastic time in this cottage which is so comfortable and warm. Very spacious , clean and tidy. The views are spectacular too. The owner and his daughter are very kind and caring people . The hot tub was fantastic and very relaxing every evening after a great day out.
Fantastic cottage in a very quite place. All you could need inc netflix .The bed is a superking so lots of room there.Shower is big and nice pressure for water.Cottage was nice and warm with underfloor heating.Constant hot water which was so nice.All the kitchen equipment you can need to cook most meals.The lounge has a great view from the front window ,2 sofas so lots of room to spread out,could possibly do with another small lamp as when the main light is off its a bit dark.Outside lovely area for dogs to run about all very safe .The hot tub is great ,so nice to sit in on a night and look at the stars as its a dark zone.What else can be said ? we will be going back !!
Serena
Very much a hidden gem. Luxury place to stay.
Another wonderful stay at The Boundary Annex. Weather was kind to us and we took advantage of the dry weather, spending so much time outdoors exploring the local area. Lots of walks and days out with our children and dog, topped off with evenings in the hot tub enjoying the peaceful countryside. Facilities and Gilbert were great, always on hand if we needed him. We will be back again.
This was our second stay at the Boundary Annex and prior to our visit really looking forward to another wonderful week. Such a beautiful home from home. Comfortable and spacious with everything you need. The views are superb from every angle and it soothes your spirit Gilbert is friendly and a wonderful host as is Emma. Our dog Bruno accompanied us again and was very safe in the enclosed areas next to the Annex and the raised patio area. Stunning sunsets and many places to visit close by including Bishops Castle, Clun and Montgomery. An absolute gem of a holiday home
Louise
The Annex is a hidden gem . We loved our stay . Everything was perfect . The hot tub an added bonus . Its so peaceful & we loved watching all the birds especially the Kites. The secure areas for our Labrador were great. We fell lucky with the weather & enjoyed relaxing days. Gilbert was great & friendly . We look forward to booking again .
The views are outstanding from the cottage with its big window and the garden on the hill. The cottage was a home from home feel, with all the bits you need, including kitchen roll, cling film, tin foil. Lovely and clean. A nice welcome pack on arrival. Great gas BBQ, and a welcomed hot tub after a long day walking. Nice and private with lovely discreet owners.
One of the best places we have stayed in for quite some time. Gilbert and Emma were the perfect hosts from initial arrival to departure. The bottle of prosecco and chocolates were a nice touch. The Boundary Annexe was spotless upon arrival, bed comfy and our cream retriever settled in immediately. Everything was there what you needed like home from home. The hot tub was amazing especially after long walks in the beautiful Shrooshire countryside. We will ve returning in the future. Look no further if you want a wonderful experience. Thank you both x
A lovely getaway from everything lovers are stay a week wasnt long enough lovely fire warm hot tub beautiful views
Kerrie
What an absolute gem of a holiday cottage. Booked it for my partners 50th birthday. Packed with everything you need for your stay including a bottle of bubbly, chocolates and milk. Gilbert & Emma were lovely and although Gilbert had to check the hot tub every morning you never knew he was there. The cottage was immaculate and so nicely decorated would love to live there including a christmas tree. Such beautiful scenary and so peaceful a great place to relax and recharge your batteries. Great secure areas for our 2 GSD's to stretch their legs. Would highly recommend 5, I will be recommending to all my friends those with and without dogs. Hoping to rebook in 2024. Thank you both for our great long weekend and have a lovely
Claire
Had a great stay. The owners were very helpful and friendly, but still felt very private. Beautiful location with lots of lovely walks. Outside tap a must with dogs as very muddy in November! Cottage was perfect lovely and warm and very comfortable. The hot tub was a bonus amd perfectly clean and well maintained. Don't think I have ever given 5s for all aspects, but would definitely return here.
The property is a great size, in a great location & Gilbert is very helpful. That said there were some elements which were not quite as described in the listing possibly Skye's errors. The owner's property being in close proximity actually means it is about 3mtrs away & the drive in the picture is their main access to their property. This means every time they come & go it is right in front of your windows & having the hot tub checked every morning means someone goes past the window & kitchen daily not making it very private. The Crown Inn is also in Wentnor, not Wetnor as per the listing and is also over 2 miles away we were disappointed to find we could not walk to it although it was fabulous!. The blue light in the bedroom for the heating controls was very bright at night & the shower area needed a good clean around the bottom. It is a shame as these things would have stopped us booking this property, we felt the listing misleading. That said the owner could not have more polite, friendly and welcoming. The hot tub was a lovely luxury but the dressing gowns and towel were only really ideal for very small people.
Adrian
Fantastic property in great setting. Everything we needed and the hot tub was lovely even in the rain ! Great walks from door and our spaniel was well catered for and loved it too. Welcome pack a nice touch. Thank you . Would definitely recommend this property.
Second stay at The Boundary Annex and once again we were not disappointed. Its a very unique place to stay in a breathtaking part of the UK. It has everything we needed for a family of four and our dog. We stayed local for exploring on some days and went further afield using it as a base on others. Gilbert is a lovely host and on hand for anything you need. The hot tub is one of the bonuses of the stay. We will return soon.
The Boundary Annex is an outstanding place for a break. A home from home, very comfortable and clean. The views from inside and outside the cottage are superb, unspoilt and constantly changing. It is very spacious inside and there is everything you need. It is very quiet and peaceful, yet there are many beautiful places to visit just a short drive away. Gilbert the owner was very kind and thoughtful and made us very welcome. We hope to book again when will be able to use the log burner. A wonderful holiday.
Louisa
Where to start! The Annex was spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Gilbert was so helpful, cleaning the hut tub every day and being on hand for anything that we needed whilst also being unobtrusive. Fantastic area to stay with dogs as there are loads of local walks and ones to travel out too as well. The hot tub was out of this world, we done some star gazing and bubbly drinking while in there Tea, coffee, sugar, bubbly and milk all provided for our arrival so thoughtful. We all loved it and hopefully will be back! We ate at The Loopy Shrew in Shrewsbury great roast dinner and The Three Tuns in Bishop's Castle delicious food and lovely staff. We also visited Ludlow, Gregynog Hall great for walks and Bewdley on the Great Severn Railway from Bridgnorth. Lovely holiday, thanks to all at the Annex x
Michelle
Just back from my first visit at the Annex as a Solo Traveller and it was amazing, firstly I'd like to say The Boundary Annex will be all things to all people , for me it was a retreat. It's so peaceful, a million miles away from the rat race with the most amazing scenery. It was like staring at a painting. Set along a country lane with next to no traffic with cows, sheep and birds for neighbours. My day started with some morning yoga, afternoon bbq, hot tub , country walks, comfy sofa , amazing views ,fireplace and Netflix. My dogs loved it!, it's was secure for them I had no worries at all. There are places to explore, Shrewsbury, the Welsh border is 15 mins away There are idyllic country pubs 10ish min drive but for me this was about Wellbeing and switching off. The annex is adorable, everything you need. The lounge with its high beamed ceiling, fireplace, massive wet room, underfloor heating and windows that frame a view to die for.The hot tub is a lil gem and the bbq area is a perfect viewing point. You will not be disappointed! It will forever hold a place in my heart. Don't change a thing x Thank you Solo Traveller
A lovely property in a stunning location the views are incredible. Everything about this property and location makes you relax. Gilbert is the most wonderful host, nothing was too much trouble, and he really goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. A great location to explore the surrounding area. You will not be disappointed with a break in The Boundary Annex!
The annex was excellent. And surrounding s was breathtaking.will book again .this year.
Stuart
A beautiful location and immaculate cottage that was spotlessly clean with pretty much everything youd ever need for a cottage get away. The owners went out of their way to ensure you had all you needed for your stay and are extremely helpful and friendly. We will definitely return for another stay in the Shropshire Hills.
Fantastic property, great location, well presented
Theresa
Clean, comfortable, warm and well looked after accommodation. Hot tub great, in secluded placement and checked every day. Host Gilbert both friendly and unobtrusive. Garden areas with good views and secure for dog and ours does test for this!. Great walking from the door. Cold water swim area at nearby Carding Mill reservoir, permitted by National Trust and with good access. We loved our stay and hope to go back next year. Many thanks to Gilbert.
A beautiful cottage, clean, well maintained, comfortable, great views and helpful welcoming hosts.
