Superb property with superb hosts
We have visited many lovely holiday properties over the years but The Pigeon House has to be the best. Elaine and Adam (the owners) have designed an exceptional building with fantastic facilities. They have also put a huge amount of effort into providing a level of service and information that makes you feel special. They are also keen to get guest feedback so they can fine tune an already excellent experience. We cannot recommend The Pigeon House highly enough.

Superb property and hosts. Beautifully presented with everything ( and more) that we could have wanted. Exceptionally clean!! Hot tub lovely ,surroundings lovely too. The hosts provided excellent communication and were on hand if any problems arose. Great location for Shrewsbury which was visited via a local taxi. We will be staying again as soon as we can .
