IZAAK WALTON'S COTTAGE

This charming thatched 16th century half-timbered cottage was once owned by Izaak Walton, the celebrated author of the Compleat Angler. The cottage nestles in the tiny hamlet of Shallowford, between Stafford and Eccleshall surrounded by beautiful countryside, its tranquil environment is perfect for a quiet, rewarding afternoon.
