The Temple of Diana, located in Shifnal, Staffordshire, is a luxurious holiday accommodation that accommodates up to six guests. Constructed in the 1760s for Sir Henry Bridgeman and designed by the renowned architect James Paine, this historical building has been meticulously restored to blend modern comforts with its original charm. The property features a three-bay glazed Orangery, which offers stunning views of the surrounding parkland, a circular tea room transformed into a cozy sitting area, and a modern kitchen equipped with all necessary appliances. Additionally, guests can enjoy a spacious family bathroom and a snug area, all set across four floors accessible by a series of stone spiral steps.

The accommodation consists of three double bedrooms, two of which have en-suite bathrooms, making it ideal for families or groups. The estate itself encompasses 1,000 acres of Capability Brown parkland and is home to various amenities, including the Granary Brasserie and a children's adventure playground with a miniature railway. Visitors can experience a range of events held throughout the year on the estate, although there are also periods when the grounds are quieter, allowing for a more serene stay.

The Weston Park Foundation, which oversees the estate, has revitalized the Temple and its surroundings while preserving their historical significance. This commitment to maintaining the heritage of the property provides guests with a unique opportunity to stay in a historically rich environment. Nearby attractions include the World Heritage Site of Ironbridge Gorge, the culinary hotspot of Ludlow, and the historic city of Chester, all easily accessible for day trips.

To enhance the guest experience, meals can be pre-ordered and prepared by the estate's chefs, featuring seasonal vegetables sourced from the Walled Garden. A welcome hamper is also provided, containing local delicacies such as milk, butter, eggs, cheese, homemade cake, freshly baked bread, and a bottle of wine. For those who prefer dining out, the Granary Restaurant is conveniently located nearby, offering a variety of meals throughout the day, including breakfast, light lunches, and an à la carte dinner menu available on select evenings.
