Waterfront holiday rentals in Shrewsbury

This was a wonderful place to spend a few weeks while we were 'between homes'. The flat was well-equipped, spacious, comfortable and very quiet. Plus Julie was a great host, who always responded promptly to any questions we had.

Thomas’s place is great. It’s a peaceful, calm oasis just outside Shrewsbury centre, but within easy walking distance of all the attractions and places to eat. The interior is spacious, tasteful and well equipped. Outside is a lovely riverside view. It’s a great place for a short break in Shrewsbury and we would definitely book again when returning to Shrewsbury.

We felt like we’d travelled in time to a few hundred years ago when we arrived to the house! The flat was tastefully decorated, comfortable and has everything we’d needed. The views are breathtaking from the living room and even from the bedrooms and kitchen. Spotless bathroom, there was all amenities we needed. We walked around the beautiful lake, garden is just unbelievable! We read a lot, felt like Jane Austen times. A very special flat in a beautiful setting . We’d come again.

We had a few wonderful days at Nick's place. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable with a nice outdoor area when the sun shone. It was a short walking distance from both High Town and Low Town and very close to the SVR station. There is plenty to see and do within a short distance.

Location was perfect for as it was close to Combermere Abbey. It was also 1 hour drive from Manchester Airport. We had hired the two flats which were beside each other and it suited both families; it was almost as if we had the whole marina to ourselves. The pub on the other side of the canal was great and there was lovely 5min walk down to a Garden Centre for Breakfast. The flow of long barges through the canal was lovely.

We had a wonderful stay at Gary’s place. He’s a friendly host and it’s a really peaceful location. We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony (which is covered, great for all weather) and watching the swans. The place is well-equipped for longer stays and we were able to cooks meals etc. Having two bathrooms was helpful too. The hot tub was wonderful to relax in after days out exploring. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks Gary!

Fantastic place to stay, absolutely loved it. As a solo female I felt really safe and secure and I loved the views out of all of the windows really beautiful. I’d love to stay again and would recommend it to anyone!

This is an outstanding property, and Jacky was a great host. The location is super, and we loved being able to walk the lanes and ancient footpaths, right from the doorstep. We, including our dog, were made very welcome and we had a much-needed relaxing and refreshing break. Highly recommend, and regret that our stay was over far too soon!

Diane is a lovely, friendly lady living below the flat. The flat is so well equipped with kitchen utensils, bedding and especially children’s games . We had a really fun time. It was lovely walking along the river into town also.

Alison & Johns house was an excellent place to stay. It was spotless and very well equipped. The milk and chocolates were appreciated. It is located in a quiet area, parking was straightforward especially as the hosts organised a parking permit for us. It is an easy walk into the city along the canal towpath. Communication with Alison & John was great. Very responsive & friendly. We will definitely use this place again when visiting friends in Worcester. Thank you.

5 couples had a fantastic weekend at this Airbnb celebrating a big birthday. It’s a great location right on the river and an easy walk into the town. The kitchen especially was a good gathering area for everyone. The parking issue wasn’t a problem but there is only a small space for two medium sized cars and the next door neighbours are clearly sensitive about the boundary so we were very aware of parking appropriately

Really enjoyed our stay here, Katrina was so helpful. Place was exactly like the photos and so peaceful.

We stayed at Lornas place as part of a work trip for The Stalking Show 2025. It accommodated us all easily and was exactly what we needed. We particularly enjoyed meeting the goats.

Lovely little place to unwind. Hot tub was perfect and hot! The rooms were clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen. Krystena was super responsive and everything was clear. Would definitely recommend 👍🏼

Our multi generational family had a wonderful stay in Lock Cottage. Everything you could need was provided in a homely environment. Noel was so helpful and reassuring as we were concerned about recent flood levels on the river. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property and look forward to visiting again.

The Lodge is a wonderful place to stay! The view from the property is wonderful and we loved being out in the garden. The property has everything you need and more to make your stay extremely comfortable. A hidden gem, we would love to revisit, thank you very much!

This has to be one of the best Airbnb properties that we have ever stayed in. The location is perfect, a two floor two bedroom flat built over Riverside cafe, overlooking the river Severn and under 10 minutes walk from dog lane carpark. We arrived after dark on a very cold evening and were immediately struck by how warm and cosy it was. The flat is beautifully presented with high quality furnishing and fully equipped with everything you could need. The beds are very comfortable. We really appreciated the little touches which were provided - milk and water in the fridge, tea, coffee and biscuits. These are the things which make a guest feel welcome. Just sorry we could not stay longer.

Lucy was really friendly and helpful, answering questions quickly. She was there to check us in and explain everything, and provided some helpful tips. Its a great location within walking distance of the cathedral and town centre, and several restaurants and pubs. The flat itself is clean, comfortable and has everything we needed, it was also very quiet. Bathroom was very good with a great shower. Car can be parked in a secure underground car park which is accessed by a lift. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend and are likely to stay again next year.

What a place!! Beautiful accommodation, set close to woodlands and a lake. Private and peaceful. The bedrooms were all bigger then expected, and a large lounge area to relax in. The kitchen offered all you could ask for, with plenty of seating for the 10 of us. As for the welcome hamper, never had one like it before. Local produce. Gin, wine and beers. Cakes and biscuits. Cheese and chutney, and even homemade bread in the oven. The games room in the basement really topped it off, especially with the children, and every night ended with a game of snooker or darts. Plenty of outdoors area to enjoy our first BBQ of the year, and space for the kids to run around and play games. As for the host, Victoria, nothing was tok much trouble. Early check-in, as we wanted to make the most of the weekend. Always on hand to suggest local attractions and bars/restaurants. Even before the holiday, any queries were swiftly answered. A great host, and a great time had by all, would definitely recommend.

Lovely apartment, we would definitely stay here again. Yvonne was very efficient at responding to any questions and accommodating our needs.

Beautiful garden and very clean accommodation. Had a great stay and Bethan was very communicative.

We had a lovely couple of nights at Kira's place. She had definitely gone the extra mile with little touches left for us. The apartment was bigger than we had anticipated, with great sized bedrooms. Everything was very clean and cozy. The mere was beautiful and peaceful to walk around straight from the garden. The traffic did wake us early both mornings but we didn't notice the road in the evenings. Ellesmere is a very quiet town in the evening.
