Welcome to Bishops Castle
South Shropshire!

Bishop's Castle is a small market town in South Shropshire. An area of outstanding natural beauty; 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. Bishops Castle has some excellent accommodation both in and out of town.
The two main centres for visitors are: Bishop's Castle and Clun.

Bishop's Castle has been voted one of Britains Top Ten Market Towns in 2011 by Lonely Planet Magazine - more here

Please come and visit - you'll find a welcome wherever you go.
