The House is about 500 yards beyond the second bridge on the left hand side among some trees and set back from the road.
From Stafford: Leave Stafford on the A5013 – Eccleshall Road. Pass under the M6 at J14 and follow as above.
From Stone: Take the B5026 Eccleshall Road from the roundabout on the A34. Continue for about 3 miles, and at the next roundabout turn left and left again shortly afterwards onto the road signposted ‘Norton Bridge – Great Bridgeford – Izaak Walton’s Cottage’, just after the railway bridge.
Go through Norton Bridge village and Shallowford House is about 300 yards down on the right, shortly after the sign for Shallowford.
