    amazing breakfast
    cozy room
    lovely garden
    updating needed

    We had an amazing two-night stay where the breakfast was out of this world, and our room was super cozy and clean with all the tea and biscuits we could want. The garden area was lovely for relaxing, and there were plenty of spots to unwind outside too. The only minor thing was the bathroom could use a little updating, but it didn't overshadow our great experience at all! 😊

    timing issues

    Charming stay with excellent service

    The room was spacious and clean. Staff were attentive and cute, especially during our dinner where the meal presentation was excellent. The dinner service was a bit slow at times, which could be improved.

    comfy room
    excellent staff
    great food
    wrong room allocation
    limited menu options

    The room was so comfy n had a good sized bathroom, staff were really excellent too. Loved the food, the breakfast was amazin n dinner was good but coulda done with more menu options for the second night. The location is a nice walk to ironbridge, really picturesque n cozy.

    We asked for a ground floor room but that got messed up, so we had 2 flights of stairs which was kinda annoying. The menu should change a bit to keep things interestin for longer stays.
