All Stretton Bunkhouse can provide a cheap and comfortable base for just yourself or you and your friends and family, allowing you to spend more on Christmas

Church Stretton – sometimes called ‘Little Switzerland’ – has some exceptional independent shops offering a wide range of different products. Start off at the bottom of Sandford Avenue with the Chocolate Shop – dare you to go in there without coming out with a present or two and a little something for yourself. The Outdoor Shop will answer the question of what to buy the adventurous ones; Kaboodle, Rainbow’s End and Pepper’s all have clothes and gifts; the Craft Shop for those talented knitters, tatters and crochet individuals; John Thomas can do you some amazing flowers and plants – and something for the four legged critter in your life. Up on the High Street, visit the Door Knocker company for your Moon Gazing Hare or the newly opened gift shop in the Old Bank which has a stunning range of stock. Then finish off with some Christmas Fare from Saxtons or Entertaining Elephants or coffee in cake in any one of Stretton’s superb cafes. You can have your evening meal there or come back to the bunkhouse to cook for yourselves or visit our local pub which is a short walk from us. If you’re worried about carrying all that shopping back, there is a bus which stops at the Batch Valley Rd, 10 minutes from the bunkhouse. Not bad for a little town!

All Stretton Bunkhouse is open all year – including Christmas Day – for individuals, groups or sole use.

We never close at All Stretton and neither do the hills. Why not escape the misery of the queues at the airports and come and join us in Shropshire. We cannot guarantee snow but there will be lots going on locally and further afield over Halloween, Bonfire Night, Christmas and the New Year. You can join in the fun or enjoy the peace of the Batch Valley – or both. Unlike many, we don’t increase our prices during school holidays or special events. Once they are set for the year, that’s what you will be paying.
AND just in case you were off to foreign parts to see the Northern Lights – we had our own show in the Batch this week!
