Craig & Tola
Our 13th-century property is truly one-of-a-kind, offering a rare glimpse into history while providing all the comforts of modern living. With its original timber beams, stone walls, and charmingly uneven floors, the space has an authentic character that takes you back in time. Yet, despite its historical features, we’ve thoughtfully updated the property to ensure a coy and comfortable stay for our guests. Nestled in the heart of Shrewsbury, it’s a unique blend of old-world charm and modern convenience, making it a perfect retreat for those looking to experience a bit of history first-hand.
We love being hosts because it allows us to create memorable experiences for travellers. Sharing our property with guests from all over the world brings a unique sense of connection, and we enjoy offering a welcoming space where people can feel at home. Each guest brings a new story, and it's rewarding to help them explore the area, relax, and make their stay special. There's something genuinely fulfilling about adding those little touches that make people smile and ensuring they leave with wonderful memories.
Nestled in the heart of historic Shrewsbury, 12a Butcher Row is surrounded by the best this charming town has to offer. Just steps from your door, you'll find cobbled streets lined with medieval and Tudor buildings, giving the area a timeless character. This vibrant neighbourhood is brimming with boutique shops, cosy cafes, and welcoming pubs, perfect for experiencing Shrewsbury's local flavour. The beautiful River Severn winds through town, offering picturesque walking paths and views. You’re also a short stroll from landmarks like Shrewsbury Castle and the Abbey, as well as the bustling market square.
