The welcoming town of Wem lies in the heart of Shropshire, just north of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village provides visitors with a fantastic range of pubs to stop in, including the popular Castle Hotel, along with a well-stocked supermarket. Lying close to the town is Hawkstone Hall, where visitors can enjoy a range of activities from using the spa and gym, to exploring the caves and sandstone hills in the nearby Follies.

A E Housman once wrote that Shropshire was “the quietest place under the sun” and today the county remains something of a rural idyll, recognised as one of the least crowded and most peaceful regions in England.
