Keen cyclist, triathlete or just love your bike to get out and about? Shropshire has it covered!

Definitely more people using bikes on holiday, be that to get around in an eco-friendly way or to keep fit. Archers Meadow is a mile out of town so a convenient way to get around.

The Land’s End to John o’Groats ‘End-to-End’ bicycle route in the ‘Bike Britain’ cycle guide book goes past the end of our farm drive, so that is one reason to stay though not many cycle that far!

National Cycle Network Route 455 linking Oswestry to Whitchurch runs nearby.

There are also local cycle routes of different lengths if you just want to enjoy the local Shropshire countryside.

Ellesmere has a bike hire shop A Mere Cycles so you don't even have to bring your own!

As well as running glamping site In the lakelands of Shropshire, I volunteer my time as a church bellringer. This evening we rang the bells as part of the National D-Day commemoration events. One the privileges of being a bellringer in Ellesmere is being able to watch the lighting of the D-Day beacon from the roof of the church tower, amid birdsong and views across Shopshire Cheshire and North Wales.

Thanks to @helenrayboardman for waking up so early to catch the sunrise from her glamping pod @archersmeadowglamping

New Glamping Site - just opened !

Having run Birch Hill Farm – an award-winning 5-van caravan site for over 17 years, we diversified in 2019 to add luxury glamping pods – away from the caravans – yet still enjoying the same panoramic views that our regular guests return to share year after year.

Our dog-friendly, self-catering pods are furnished to a high standard with under-floor heating making them cosy all year round. Please see - https://www.archersmeadow.co.uk/

Each pod has a comfy sofa and a double bed (a single guest bed can be added to accommodate a third person), television, shower room and a small kitchen area equipped with a fridge and microwave. Outside has decking and a lawned area with a fire pit for a barbeque.

Whilst offering the opportunity to ‘get away from it all’, the reality of modern life is that connectivity is important, so each glamping pod has a Freeview TV and free Wi-Fi internet connection. Our broadband is at ‘rural speed’, so we’ve hard-wired the ethernet cable all the way to each pod to get the best available signal.
