Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Cleobury Mortimer

The compact market town of Cleobury Mortimer – or simply ‘Cleobury’ – lies on the banks of the River Rea and Pudding Brook in the county of Shropshire. Nestled between the Clee Hills and the Wyre Forest, it is a stone’s throw from classic walking routes, including the Mortimer Trail and the Severn Way. Take a walk from your Cleobury Mortimer holiday cottage, and you will discover elegant streets lined with some of the region’s best examples of Georgian half-timber architecture. A variety of independent businesses can be found in the town centre, including a butcher, a bakery and a greengrocer, where you can buy fresh produce from the surrounding countryside.
