The area and how to find us
Fishmore Hall, situated deep in the Shropshire countryside, commands uninterrupted views over a fascinating landscape where the pastoral English lowlands meet the remote Welsh uplands. From many of our bedrooms you can see the dominating Brown Clee Hill and Titterstone Clee Hill, lush green woodland and undulating countryside.
Shropshire is dotted with historic market towns and quaint villages, the prettiest of all being Ludlow laid out in the valley beneath the hotel. Famous for its food festival, fascinating shops, celebrated restaurants and historic castle, Ludlow is the perfect starting point to discovering this unspoilt county.
The area abounds with things to do with activities and sightseeing to suit everyone - from country walks to golf, shopping to crafts, fishing to horse riding, fine historic houses to ruined Norman Castles - all within close proximity to the hotel. Click here to find out more.
