Pen-y-Dyffryn Hotel is located 3 miles from Oswestry, offering great hill-walking, high quality food, and luxury rooms with spa baths.
Like all towns in Shropshire, Oswestry has a medieval history dating back to 1190, believed to be named after King and Saint Oswald. Elevated in the centre of the town is St Oswald’s Church where you can enjoy spectacular views from the beautiful churchyard.
Being an established market town, Oswestry holds an indoor market at Bailey Head every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, an outdoor market every Wednesday and Saturday, and a Farmers and Artisan market on the last Friday of every month. Selling everything from vintage clothing, vinyl’s, books, cookery equipment and many more. Oswestry is packed with a collection of independent shops.
Short Breaks in Oswestry is surrounded by an assortment of vibrant towns, bursting with an arrangement of amenities such as shopping, dining and exploring. With Chester, Wrexham, Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Ironbridge, Snowdonia National Park and Wales all a short distance away, in Oswestry you are never far away from an exciting day out.
Shropshire is acclaimed for its wide variety of National Trust properties, ranging from stately homes, castles, ruins and gardens. Each Shropshire County Hotel is located near a Shropshire National Trust attraction. Oswestry sits in a central position to five of these including, Chirk Castle (15 minutes), Erdigg House (20 minutes), Powis Castle (30 minutes), Attingham Park (30 minutes) and Bodnant Gardens (1 hour). These National Trust parks each house good cafés, making them a great spot for a light lunch.
In addition to the vast range of national heritage sites, this quaint market town is also close to a number of UNESCO World Heritage sites including the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, Chirk Aqueduct and canals, and the Ironbridge Gorge.
Shropshire County Hotels and Inns are at the heart of every town across Shropshire, providing the best accommodation, food and recommendations on the best places to visit in the area. Our Oswestry hotel, Pen-y-Dyffryn Country Hotel, offers great facilities, food and spa treatments and is situated facing the Welsh mountains to the west, promising gorgeous panoramic sunset views. The hotel provides free walking leaflets, with multiple route options.
To get the best Oswestry experience, make sure your next stay is at the Pen-y-Dyffryn Country Hotel.

#Repost @thecastlehotelbishopscastle ・・・ Visit Shropshire and support local businesses ❤ As many of you may have seen Shropshire has been in the headlines the last few weeks due to unprecedented flooding. Shrewsbury town centre, Ludlow and Ironbridge have all been affected along with rural parts of the county. Water levels are now going down and many businesses have begun the big clean up operation. Fortunately Bishops Castle is situated on high ground surrounded by the beautiful rolling hills therefore we have been unaffected by the floods but our heart goes out to all our friends and local businesses that have been. So as a result we would like to try and support these businesses get back on their feet by making an effort to increase tourism in the area. That's why were offering our biggest spring sale ever! Book a midweek stay from 1st March until 19th March and receive a massive 55% off our standard rates. Shropshire has so much to offer from exceptional walks to small independent shops selling everything from a nice hot coffee to hand crafted art. So give us a call to book your stay, you'll not only be supporting us but helping Shropshire recover 🌏 ...
