Parking in Ludlow
On arrival to Ludlow we recommend heading to Upper Galdeford car park (see map for details) as this is the closest to the house.
There are two other main car parks in the centre of Ludlow one at Lower Galdeford (connected to Upper Galdeford) and the third one at Castle Street. There is also on street parking all over the town, however we cannot offer any help if you choose to park at these.

Pay as you go car hire
For those arriving by public transport, Ludlow has a very cost effective car hire scheme. Simply pay for the car, but only when you need it. We advise that you book up in advance though.
Finding Mill Cottage
Once you are in Ludlow, Mill Cottage is easy to find. At the top of Old Street you’ll see a sign for Pepper Lane to the left. Approximately 15 metres along this road you will see a black wrought iron gate on the left (next to the barber’s shop). Go through the gate and you will see another gate – this is us.
