We were off for a long walk around the Stiperstones and came across the Bog Visitor Centre by chance. This is a lovely little place to visit. Lots of arts and crafts, together with a good selection of local books of the area, including wildlife, past history and maps. The staff were really friendly and helpful and we were disappointed we arrived back from our walk just too late for a coffee after our walk. Really recommended for a place who aim to promote the area in a very empathetic way.

If you're out exploring the walks around here, then don't forget to pop in to the visitor centre and cafe. There are pictures of how it looked with all the lead mines in operation many years ago, and info about the surrounding wildlife and geology. We stopped for refreshments after the 3.6 miles loop walk along the Stiperstones ridge, but if you have no drinks with you then I'd recommend stocking up before you head out walking.

The Bog is surrounded by wonderful views of South Shropshire and beyond. On a clear day it is breathtaking. For families it offers a pleasant walking experience which doesn't take its toll. The alpacas are fun to watch too. The visitors centre is clean, friendly and sells a range of products from local artists and craftspeople. Simple but delicious snacks are available for a reasonable price too.

Interesting building which had been a Chapel and a school. Set out as a tearoom, with bright tablecloths and pretty silk flower vases on each table. There was a good variety of cakes on offer, plenty of tea in the pot for two and extra hot water provided. My personal choice was a minestrone cup a soup. What a good idea to have that on the menu, not everyone fancies a sweet afternoon treat. Round the walls of the room were craft stalls with some really lovely handmade items ranging from greetings cards to glasswork. Looked to be a good stop for walkers and ramblers to stop off for a...

PLEASE CHECK THEIR WEBSITE FOR HOURS AND TIMES - when we visited the bog this week sadly the centre was closed as it's now only open Fri-Sun. We were aware of this before visiting. Good selection of home made cakes and coffee, much appreciated after a walk around the Stiperstones. Sells various locally made art and craft, books about the area and lots of other bits and pieces. Really nice to be able to support the community through buying a few souvenirs here. Good sized free car park across the road; you can scale the Stiperstones from here or drive further up to the NT parking...

Love the ethos of this place as it's a social enterprise. Incredibly friendly, interesting staff who have a wealth of knowledge to share. There are tasty cakes and tea available too. You’re even welcome to eat your own packed lunch here. It's a great place to buy presents made by local craftspeople who live within a 10 mile radius. You can also get OS maps and loads of walking information. Oh and it has a nice clean toilet. What's not to like? A lovely little oasis in a beautiful remote area with few...
