You can’t really put a price on peace and quiet, but if you want to have a go then you wont go far wrong with these eight unique properties in tucked-away corners Shropshire and Mid Wales.

Stone Croft at Astley Abbotts, Bridgnorth, is a substantial period house with a large garden and exceptional views over the rolling South Shropshire hills.

It briefly comprises a porch, reception hall, study, dining room, kitchen and breakfast room, cloakroom, utility, sitting room and three double bedrooms with en-suite bath and shower rooms.
