Lovely place to stay

Went to a regatta at Ironbridge. Travelling on my own I felt safe at the accommodation and it was a lovely stay. The food at the pub is amazing and all the staff so friendly and helpful. The room was very cute and had everything that I needed, including a small fridge that was a bonus as it was very hot and kept my water cool. Parking is next to the pub and had no issues. There was a fan in the room that kept the room cool overnight. Def recommend.

Quiet retreat from the world

Beautiful location. I tend to stay on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when the pub is closed. Then it's a really quiet place to relax. The rooms are quaint and clean, if a little dated.

Room was ok, but being a pub, it was disappointing to find on Friday that the bar shut after food service around 8:30pm. Had to walk over a mile in the dark to another pub for a drink. No breakfast offer, so returned to the other pub next morning for that.

Great room in a quiet peaceful area

Room and cleanliness was very good. Parking out front available free. Word of caution that on Wednesdays the pub is closed and therefore you have to do self check-in. So look out for a separate email from the pub directly. Access is straight forward, although initially unexpected.

Room was clean, plenty of tea and coffee makings! Pub closed at 10.00pm which was great as rooms were above the premises. Comfortable bed. A fair price for the room. All in all a very positive experience! Thank you!
