There are electric heaters upstairs and down. The shower room has a heated towel rail , ceiling heater and large wardrobe. Upstairs, the pine-panelled bed-sitting room, has a bedside chest and reading lamps, settee and plenty of storage space. There is a television, radio, DVD player and books, including a good selection of local interest maps and walking guides. The velux window looks up to Wenlock Edge. Electric blankets are on the beds and there are four tog weights of duvets to choose from. A fan, and hairdryer are provided. Bramley is carpeted throughout (apart from the shower room). Guests are welcome to use our washing line, washing machine and tumble dryer. Electricity, bed linen and towels are all included in the rent.

Bramley scored 70% in its Quality in Tourism inspection, (Feb. 2010) well into the 3 Star standard (60 – 74%). It has a 2 Star rating as it’s not a spacious property, but makes up for that in other ways. Inspector’s comments: ‘Guests should not be disappointed…..exceptionally high standards of cleanliness, the property was immaculate throughout….very well maintained, with plenty of additional interest…..Seasonal container planting is exceptionally good and gives the private patio area plenty of interest. Own garden is very attractive and provides a good outlook for guests. Guests are made particularly welcome….and owner is available if needed.

Please note that Bramley is non-smoking and we regret that we cannot take pets. As there are stairs and steps, the accommodation is not suitable for small children or those with restricted mobility.

SOME COMMENTS FROM THE VISITORS� BOOK:

"What a gem. Lovely welcome, cosy and just right for the two of us. Masses to do, whether wet or dry."

"We have just spent 2 weeks in what can truly be called a home from home�. You made our stay something special�We will be back again."

"We were impressed with the cleanliness of the whole place."

"As promised, we did return to this lovely part of the country�. The autumn colours were beautiful�. We will certainly recommend Bramley to our friends."

"Bramley is a superbly equipped, cosy cottage for two. We were made very welcome and spent a lovely 10 days exploring Shropshire�s beautiful countryside � cycling and walking. The thoughtful extras provided at Bramley will make it a great place to remember. We shall be back."

There is much to explore for those interested in history and the natural environment and many lovely walks nearby. Wenlock Edge, on the doorstep has ancient semi-natural woodland and a rich flora, birdlife and geological interest. Homer has fine views over the Severn Valley towards the Wrekin. It is only a 30 min drive from the moorland and 'batches (valleys) of the Long Mynd, Caer Caradoc and other South Shropshire hills, all with stunning views.

Much Wenlock is rightly regarded as one of the 'jewels' of Shropshire, with its timber framed Guildhall, Priory ruins, picturesque houses, Museum and interesting shops.

The Ironbridge Gorge, a World Heritage Site as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, is only 10 minutes away and has an excellent and varied group of museums which interpret the area's past, including Blists Hill Victorian Town.
