Clun "one of the quietest places under the sun" ( A.E. Houseman) and yet situated within easy reach of many attractions. Located in Shropshire but on the border of Wales and Hereford there are many interesting National Trust properties including Powys Castle,Berrington Hall,Croft Castle and Attingham Park,an abundance of gardens The Dingle,Hergest Croft and Hampton Court Gardens to name but a few.Ironbridge is only an hours drive away as is the county town of Shrewsbury.South Shropshire has been linked with good eating for many years and Ludlow has attracted "foodies" for some time.There are any Farmers Markets and excellent local produce is widely available.Walking and cycling are weel ctered for here with Offa's Dyke passing nearby also The Shropshire Way, Mortimer Forest Trail and Kerry Ridgeway plus the famous Long Mynd and surrounding hills.
However the most appealing feature of this county is its "hidden" qualities, forget the hustle and bustle drive on quieter roads enjoy a slower pace of life and first and foremost the magnificent scenery.
