The Experience
History buffs and nature lovers rejoice. You drive through lion-topped stone pillars to a house built in 1682 (then extended) that stands in 850 acres enfolded by the river Severn. Charming Ros and Edward are down to earth and hands-on: eggs, bacon, ham, vegetables, and logs all come from the estate.
Flop in front of a huge fire in the drawing room, homely with family antiques, big rug, magazines strewn on large tables. Peaceful bedrooms are large and light with pocket-sprung memory mattresses and snazzy upmarket bathrooms. Walk, fish, ride (there’s a livery stable on site) and lap up the views – they’re sublime.
Wake to breakfasts of freshly squeezed orange juice, Shropshire sausages, locally cured bacon, eggy bread, croissants, pains au chocolat, excellent coffee. Swim in the outdoor heated pool, wander one of the scenic routes around the river, take a picnic to its banks, spot many birds – it’s peaceful here.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Isles and I am somewhat loathe to give a positive review as there might not be any rooms available next time we want stay! Edward and Ros are fantastic hosts and make you feel so very welcome. The rooms are delightful with so many extras to make your stay a good one. The breakfasts are great and use delicious local produce. If you stay at the Isles you will not be disappointed .

Yet again Sawday's came up trumps. I had an extremely pleasant couple of nights' stay. The house has real character, the room was large and extremely comfortable, and my hosts could not have been more warm, welcoming, charming and accommodating. Both dinner and breakfasts were excellent, expertly prepared from home grown and local ingredients. I highly recommend the Isle Estate and look forward to staying again.

Well worth a visit. Very friendly and hospitable owners. Excellent breakfast. My only regret was that we only stayed one night.

Location
The neighbourhood
On the estate find a walled garden, dovecote, ha-ha and of course the river for lovely, gentle walks. Shrewsbury is just five miles for restaurants, pubs and shops. There's a great deal going on there with a food festival in late June and a folk festival in August. Walk along the ancient walls, visit the castle, museums and art gallery. National Trust Attingham Park is 11 miles, Ludlow 34.
Local points of interest from Ros & Edward Tate
- 10% off when you book two or more nights.
- All the food we serve is either produced on the place or comes from a great local farm shop.
- We are happy to send you a list of places we like to dine out nearby.
- Bring your swimming costume as the pool is kept nice and warm during the summer months.
- Leave time to have a walk around the farm taking in the 10 acre lake, Anglo-Saxon fort and of course various horses.
- Shrewsbury town centre is only 10 minutes away and should you like a glass of wine with dinner taxi's are plentiful for the return trip.

Introducing
Ros & Edward Tate
The estate has been in Edward's family since 1450 – if you're keen to learn more about the history then Edward or Ros will be very happy to oblige. They've made every effort to farm the estate in as sustainable a way as possible, benefitting all the wildlife. But their main aim is to give you a truly memorable stay.
We had a wonderful night at The Isle, we only wish we could have stayed longer. Edward was incredibly kind and generous with his time, even buying us some cakes at a charity event on the estate for our journey home (this was after I had accidentally broken an ornament in our room!). We stayed in the Blue and White Room which was beautiful ad very well appointed. The bathroom was lovely and very light and airy. We were given coffee by the pool when we first arrived and generally spoilt. Breakfast was delicious, with a huge range to choose from. The estate is beautiful and well worth exploring.
