Situation

Cross of the Tree Farm is located in the wonderful rolling countryside on the South Shropshire/North Herefordshire/Welsh borders. There are a number of well regarded villages and towns in the area. Lingen is a charming village with a strong community, a parish church and a brilliant local pub, The George.

Wigmore village has a community shop, pub/restaurant (also very good!) and provides excellent schooling for all ages. Nearby Leintwardine boasts an excellent village shop and petrol station, butcher, pop-up bakery, primary school, pubs and restaurants. And a well regarded fish and chip shop!

The nearby market town of Presteigne is brilliantly quirky and eclectic, with a vibrant community, full of character, offering some excellent independent shops such as butchers and greengrocers, cafés, restaurants and popular delicatessens. The market town of Ludlow to the east continues to enjoy immense popularity from both locals and visitors alike.

Ludlow and Leominster both have train stations on the main Manchester to Cardiff railway line. The A49 links Shrewsbury to the north and Hereford to the south, with the main motorway network accessed towards Kidderminster via the A4117.
