Absolutely amazing! We stayed @sycamoreschristianretreat which is a Manor house on national trust land. There's a brook which runs in front of the house... it's so peaceful. The sound of birdsong is so clear. Whatever time of year I go it's always breathtaking, food for my soul. I highly recommend visiting.

It can get busy, so go early, we go there at 8 am to do The Long Mynd walk and it was quiet, but when we got back about 10:30 it was really busy with few parking places remaining.Parking is £7.50 for the day, and while I know National Trust do some great work to maintain the paths etc, it’s expensive, especially if you combine your visit with a trip to the restaurant, it’s expensive.However, the walks are stunning!Regardless of the weather, it’s worth a visit, take the detour to Light Spout waterfallIt’s just a short walk, in the dry it’s ok, if it’s wet the surface could be slippery.

It is a great place to visit with an amazing way to bring your friends and family outdoors and enjoy the mountains and hills. It is located just outside Church Stretton in Shropshire and is run by the National Trust, so if you got a membership pass with the national trust, you can use it, and you don't need to pay for parking when you are there.

We travelled 4 hours to get there, but it was so worth it. Large parking, decent price. Very nice cafe with amazing food ( a lot for vegans too!). Beautiful, at times breathtaking views. Few trails to choose from, from 20 minutes, to 3 hours. Managed to climb up the waterfall trail and onwards with my dodgy knee and the descent was quite steady and pleasant, with just amazing sights in front. On top of Long Mynd before you know it. Back down just as easily. Who would have thought, Shropshire Hills are so beautiful.

Great afternoon at Carding Mill. Parking is free to National Trust members. Enjoyed lunch at the National Trust tea rooms before taking a hike to the Waterfall. Some parts of this trail can be a little challenging so sturdy footwear recommended. Beautiful views and fresh air good for the soul as is the wildlife here.

Had a lovely walk to the waterfall and round. Beautiful views. The staff member by the map was very helpful and kind to talk to, he suggested the walk as we weren't sure where to start!

Nice place to go out with the family, the pictures don't do it justice. You can walk easily from the centre of Church Stretton or if you are a National Trust member you can park your car in the valley.There is a coffee shop and toilets about half way up the valley and it's a nice but steep walk up to the reservoir.All in all a nice day out for the family that does not cost anything if you like the outdoors and walking.

I love this place. Whatever season we visit, it's beautiful. Really busy that Saturday but the NT staff were polite and helpful. Fantastic soup in the cafe to fuel our walk.

One of the beautiful place of National Trust.Magnificent scenery across the whole area.Friendly staffs guide you with parking.Parking charges £7.50 also can pay through card.Cafe at the start of your journey also toilets available.Cinematic scenery when walking / tracking / hiking.Quite uneven surface not suitable for buggies.But worth getting at the end when you see the Waterfall around 30 minutes walk depending how fast you are walking can take longer.Walk to reservoir around 10 minutes beautiful rock stairs to go up to reservoir.
