Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located on the edge of a small village, offering a nice and quiet environment with easy access to Telford/Shrewsbury areas. The rooms are incredibly clean and cosy, providing a great night's sleep. The dining experience offers a variety of choices in a lovely setting, but the furnishings could be more comfortable for relaxation.
The hotel offers large immaculate rooms with everything we needed, including a good-sized bed and great views. The service was incredibly friendly and very helpful, with the perfect balance of professionalism and engaging charm. Located in a quiet village close to Shrewsbury, the hotel is excellent for site-seeing and walking. The dining experience was lovely, with a complimentary plate of taster breakfasts but served on cold plates. Overall, a good value for money stay with a few minor cons.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were well appointed and welcoming in appearance, though a bit cool in temperature without means of cooling. Unfortunately, my room opened directly onto the car park, which was not very appealing with litter and leaves around. The bed was comfortable and the furnishings nice, but the size was a bit small.
