Adcote Bothy – Saddle up for the best of Shropshire country living.
Equestrian lifestyle | Character cottage | Versatile annexe

Welcome to Adcote Bothy, a charming period home that blends rustic character with modern comforts, tucked away down a quiet lane within the peaceful hamlet of Adcote and surrounded by the rolling beauty of the Shropshire countryside.

Here, you’ll find the best of country living – from idyllic cottage gardens to first-class equestrian facilities – along with a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, perfect for multi-generational living, visiting family, or a ready-made holiday let.

The Main Cottage

Dating back to circa 1880 and sympathetically extended in later years, Adcote Bothy is rich with warmth and character – think exposed beams, rustic brickwork, and the unmistakable charm of a true country home.

You’re welcomed via the entrance vestibule into a spacious breakfast kitchen, where the AGA takes centre stage beneath a beautiful brick surround – a kitchen that invites long, lazy breakfasts and hearty evening meals.

Two further reception rooms offer space and versatility. The dual-aspect living room, flooded with natural light, flows into a conservatory with a glass roof – the perfect spot for morning coffee or watching the garden change through the seasons. Across the hall, the dining room exudes charm with its exposed beams and log burner – a setting that was made for dinner parties.

A utility room and separate shower room complete the ground floor. There is also a tanked, carpeted cellar - ideal as a home office, snug or games room!

Upstairs, three double bedrooms await, the principal with an en-suite shower room. Two of the bedrooms enjoy built-in wardrobes, and each one frames a tranquil view of the surrounding countryside.

The Annexe & Double Garage

Completed in 2021, the beautifully finished one-bedroom annexe offers complete independence with its own private entrance. On the ground floor, you’ll find a sleek, modern kitchen and shower room, while upstairs opens into a light-filled, open-plan living/dining space with direct access to a private balcony – the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee whilst gazing out over the manege.

Whether it’s for welcoming family, generating a holiday let income, or creating a stylish home office, the annexe is a truly versatile addition to the property.

Beneath it sits the double garage, with two electric sectional doors doors for vehicle access plus a side door and windows that flood the space with natural light – making it ideal not only for parking but also for workshop, storage, or even studio and hobby use.

Equestrian Facilities

For horse lovers, Adcote Bothy delivers in abundance. The 3.1-acre grounds include:

- Seven stables totalling ~1,400 sq. ft.
- All-weather manege - measuring approx. 40m (131’3) x 20m (65’7)
- Three grazing areas – a paddock plus two larger fields

The large driveway provides ample parking and turning for horse boxes, and local bridleways lead to Nesscliffe Country Park or The Cliffe at Ruyton XI Towns in an easy 30-minute hack.

The Setting

Adcote offers peaceful rural living without sacrificing convenience. The nearby village of Baschurch is just two miles away and provides everyday amenities, while the historic market town of Shrewsbury is within a 15-minute drive.

The area is home to the prestigious Adcote School for Girls, along with highly regarded primary and secondary schools. And with the A5 close by, you’ll have easy links to the national road and rail networks – as well as into Wales.

Adcote Bothy is more than a home – it’s a lifestyle. A place where family, guests, and four-legged friends are equally at home; where evenings are spent by the log burner and mornings begin with a ride across open fields.

After 16 happy years here, the current owners are ready to pass the reins to someone new. Could that be you?
