Tugford Farm - Shropshire Holiday Cottages, B&B and Livery

New Year

3rd January 2019

Well where has the year gone! Christmas was busy and New Year too. Everyone feels a little down in the dumps during January but it's the best time to plan ahead and book those weekends with families or arrange a girls weekend. Our best rates of the year are in January and February so make the most of it and come along to stay with us. The log burner in Meal House will welcome you back from a days walking on The Brown Clee Hill and later you can relax in the Jacuzzi Hot Tub. What could sound better than that! Happy New Year to you all.

Summer Time

26th June 2018

Summer time and the living is easy! Well if you're on holiday here it is at the moment. What amazing weather. We need a 'Cold Tub' not a 'Hot Tub' We have Swifts, Swallows and House Martins swooping over our heads early morning and evening. It's magical to watch as they scream into the tight places above the stables and cottages. We are busy making Hay (while the sun shines) and so everywhere smells of summer. We have some late availability so if you fancy a last minute break we always up for a barter. Give us a call!

Lambing

24th April 2018

Lambing is over, well almost, we have just 15 Ewes waiting to lamb. All the rest are out in the fields with their babies enjoying the Spring grass. Everything is greening up beautifully and Wyn finished planting the Spring Oats today. Easter has come and gone and we were really busy with lovely guests, some we have known for a long time, some with four legs and some new faces. We've had Stag Parties and Birthday parties for young and old'ish. As we head towards the end of April we know that May and June will bring everyone out to enjoy, what I consider, the best time of the year in the Countryside. Long days and evenings with plenty of time to enjoy everything we have around us. Walks and rides, if you have either a horse or bike, on the wonderful Brown Clee Hill. BBQ's by the Jacuzzi Hot Tub, Ludlow and it's Medieval Castle, Teme River walks and pubs and of course the open air market for those special purchases of local food etc. Talking for food don't forget we have three very special pubs on our doorstep. The closest and walkable is The Tally Ho serving good pub food. The Swan Inn at Aston Munslow, only 5 minutes in the car, serving a wide selection of pub meals. Both of the above also serve the Ludlow Brewery 'Ludlow Gold Ale' and lastly for a special evening of AA rosette food, the Crown Country Inn at Munslow again only 5 minutes by car. So how about some 'me and us time'? Check out our availability and come and enjoy some time out.

Lambing

20th March 2018

We have survived the Beast from the East apart from a few burst pipes and some guests cars being snow drifted in but nothing stops Tugford Farm Holiday Cottages and Livery for very long. The days are getting longer and Spring is definitely with us now. Easter is early this year but we have lots of availability between now and the summer so grab your self a weekend getaway or a longer break and come to relax and enjoy the hot tub and scenery here in South Shropshire. We are in the middle of lambing so there are lots of new lambs arriving daily and the horses are vacating their stables for sheepy maternity wards. It's just like 'Call the Midwife' only more agricultural and less bedside manner! Soon the fields will be greening up and the hedgerows full of Primroses, Campions and Bluebells. It's just the best time of year so let's look forward to welcoming new and old friends to Tugford Farm Holiday Cottages.
