Canal Marsh

The Montgomery Canal runs past this corner of Shropshire, and Canal Marsh sits right on its bank. The Welsh hills rise beyond the water, visible from the balcony; Oswestry town is roughly two miles away, close enough for shops and restaurants but far enough that the setting remains genuinely quiet. A pub lies within a mile, and the canal towpath is on the doorstep for walking or cycling. The wider area connects you to Chester, Shrewsbury and Llangollen within reach for a day trip.

Access is via open-tread steps to a first-floor space designed as one flowing room: kitchen, dining and living areas all in view of each other, with patio doors opening to the private balcony. One bedroom has a king bed, the other twin beds, and there is a proper shower room plus a separate WC. The essentials are covered—linen, towels and wifi included—and you have sole use of the whole property. Parking for two cars sits within the shared eight-acre canalside grounds; the hedged boundary has gate access straight onto the canal path.

This suits people who want the option of activity or stillness in equal measure: towpath walks, watching narrowboats, cooking in, or abandoning the water view altogether for a drive to somewhere else. No smoking indoors.
