Welcome to The Barn at Ryecroft
Self-Catering Countryside Accommodation near Ludlow
This idyllic rural hideaway is a unique Stable and Hay Barn conversion, one mile from the village of Richard's Castle and only three miles south of Ludlow town centre, well-known as Shropshire's gastronomic capital.
A retreat for all seasons, you can enjoy 4-star self catering with original solid pine beams, wood burning stove and stunning panoramic views. The accommodation stands at the end of a leafy private drive within it's own secluded gardens, ideally situated for exploring Shropshire, Herefordshire and the Welsh Borders. There are National Trust and English Heritage places nearby, with historic market towns like Shrewsbury or Hereford and the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge all good for a day out.
Whether you are a walker, cyclist, foodie or book lover, or simply just want to get away from it all, The Barn is the place to be.
Short breaks are available as well as weekly stays.
Should you need it, we are only a stone's throw away to offer friendly advice on making the most of your stay.




Another relaxing holiday at Ryecroft Barn. A week of great weather, dry riding conditions, blossoming countryside and chirruping wildlife. There is so much to do in the area and the benefit of retreating to The Barn is welcoming at the start and end of each day.

Second time here. Still the same peaceful place with lots of wildlife around. Spent a lot of time here at The Barn due to hot(!!!) weather but did visit a few places. Slept well, like last time. P.S. Just seen Red Kite fly over!
