About 1 Sternsmill Cottage

1 Sternsmill Cottage is a cosy secluded holiday home on the Dudmaston estate. The property benefits from a private garden, beautiful countryside views, and even a cave in the sandstone cliff behind the cottage. It was built in the 19th-century and retains many original features, including wooden floors and the range in the living room. 

Make the most of free entry to Dudmaston Hall before exploring the nearby village of Quatt. Why not see south Shropshire from a different perspective with a trip along the Severn Valley Railway by steam train. 

Just three miles from the cottage is the historic town of Bridgnorth. Once one of the busiest river ports in Europe, it is now a clear, unpolluted, quiet haven for anglers, walkers and wildlife.
