It's very close to some of the Iron bridge attractions, close to the river Severn, and within fairly easy walking distance to the town centre. The room we had was a family room, so more than big enough for us. There was no air conditioning, but a large ceiling fan kept the room cool . Food in the restaurant was excellent.

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.
