South of Manchester and North of Birmingham, Shropshire is the perfect place to get away from it all with lovely little villages and relaxing countryside. But what else does the county have to offer? In no particular order, here are our suggestions for things to do in Shropshire:

Ludlow Castle, Ludlow

A magnificent castle in a majestic setting, Ludlow is one of the most impressive ancient buildings in the West Midlands. Admission is £3.50 for adults and just £1.50 for children from 10am to 5pm every day of the week. In the winter the castle closes an hour earlier at 4pm but in August the doors stay open until 7pm.
