Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Bridgnorth

To borrow a sporting phrase, Bridgnorth is a town of two halves, each having a choice of pretty townhouses and cottages available to book for self-catering holidays in this attractive Shropshire town. Bridgnorth is built above and below a red sandstone ridge, creating a High Town and a Low Town. Climb or descend the winding streets and flights of steps between the two on foot or ‘commute’ via the funicular railway. Charles 1st paused in the town for long enough to declare the view from High Town as being blessed with “The finest in my Kingdom.”

Visit Bridgnorth on a Saturday and hunt for bargains in the bustling street market before exploring the crazily-slanting castle ruins or strolling along the banks of the River Severn in the valley below. If a walk along the riverbank is too challenging, view it from your carriage window when taking a nostalgic ride along the Severn Valley Railway. This heritage steam railway runs along the river from Bridgnorth to Kidderminster. For those worn out through discovering the delights of both ends of the town, there are plenty of attractive tea rooms, cafes and traditional pubs to refuel.

Bridgnorth is conveniently located for exploring the rest of the County of Shropshire. The countryside is dotted with beautiful ‘chocolate box’ villages and is excellent for walls in all seasons. Plan day trips from your holiday cottages to the Royal Air Force Museum in Cosford, the ten industrial museums in the Ironbridge Gorge, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and the Black Country Museum (in which much of Peaky Blinders is filmed ) for genuinely memorable days out within easy reach of Bridgnorth.
