Welcome to Bishops Castle

Bishop's Castle in South Shropshire is an place of outstanding beauty and tranquility. It is much loved by visitors who want to experience unspoilt countryside dappled with small villages and hamlets. It's a place to get away to and enjoy the peace and tranquility that is rapidly departing from other parts of England. There are no motorways and few traffic lights; you'll be deafened by the silence broken only by the calls of circling buzzards.

The two main centres for visitors are: Bishop's Castle and Clun. Other places of interest are Offa's Dyke, The Stiperstones & Mitchells Fold.

Stay in the area and you will be treated to good food in the local pubs, cafes and restaurants. There's lots of interesting accommodation to choose from. There's a variety of Bed and Breakfast, Pub and Hotel, Self- Catering and Camping to suit all visitors.

The shops in the town are a delight in their individuality and independent nature. No IKEA, M&S or Boots here - the majority of shops are locally owned and managed and this makes for a very special visit.

The town has 2 banks, a post office and 3 grocery stores. Add to that a wonderful deli, several interesting cafes and 6 pubs . . . not to mention the 2 breweries.

This site is run from Enterprise House, the centre for internet access, library, dial-a-ride, business services, Housing Association, equipment loan and several businesses.
