Shropshire Tourism “Shropshire is one of the least crowded and most peaceful areas of England. Now one of the few remaining rural idylls, it has a long history of wild border conflicts which have left a legacy of atmospheric hillforts, earthworks and castles. As visitors, pilgrims and honoured guests to Shropshire you’ll need to know all the best places to visit and interesting things to do while you’re here. Indeed as many before you have already discovered, Shropshire’s attractions are as diverse as the very county itself.”

Places to visit
Acton Scott Farm Museum
Acton Scott Farm Museum Today, the Historic Working Farm offers a fascinating insight into rural life at the turn of the 19th century, as farm life unfolds daily and the land around is worked by heavy horses. There are daily demonstrations of period skills and visits from the Wheelwright, Farrier and Blacksmith, providing a picture of life as it might have been on a Victorian country estate.

lively community feel, Ludlow bustles with events and festivals throughout the
year. Perched on a cliff above the River Teme, Ludlow is surrounded by the unspoilt and beautiful hilly countryside of south Shropshire and the Welsh border country, known as the Welsh Marches. Excellent walking and cycling opportunities are right on our doorstep.”
