Come and relish the peace and tranquility of the Clun Valley. According to A E Housman
"Clunton and Clunbury,
Clungunford and Clun,
Are the quietest places
Under the sun." Walk hills and river valleys, meadows and ancient forests, see hillforts, nature reserves and visit quintessential villages. And when you're done exploring, retreat to your cosy cottage with wood burning stove or one of the
local pubs and cafes. Clun is a pretty, historic farming town, that more resembles a village in stature and personality. A haven for those wishing to retreat to the peace and tranquility of the hills, walkers have direct access to The Shropshire Way and Jack Mytton Way long distance footpaths, and easy access to the Offa's D**e Path. Cyclist have the choice of road riding up and down the hills exploring nearby villages and towns, or hitting the local forest tracks. A visit to Clun's Norman castle just a 10 minute walk from Wrens Nest is a must— looking beautiful under a day or night sky. The hill fort at Bury Ditches, one of the best preserved in the country, boasts panoramic views of the valley, as do Radnor wood, Sowdley wood and Black Hill. Beyond that, the options for exploring the local area are endless. The small town offers all you need with a local shop (Spar), grocers, deli, two pubs that also serve food and takeaway, two cafes, a hairdressers and a beauticians. We have a monthly produce market in the town, or just up the road Lydham has a farmers market every Friday. Unfortunately we're unable to accept young children or dogs at Wrens Nest.
