Hotel Description

This attractive family-run guest house offers superior accommodation for the discerning traveller, in a warm, friendly, family atmosphere with views of the beautiful surrounding countryside all around.

The guest house has an idyllic location, surrounded by beautiful tranquil English countryside. Its great access to the region’s major roads makes it a convenient base for visiting the area on business or for exploring the surrounding region for leisure. Telford town centre is just 10 minutes away, as is the International Centre and all of the town’s industrial and commercial zones. The guest house also has a great location for touring Shropshire's many magnificent sights and historical attractions, such as Ironbridge, Shrewsbury and Ludlow.

All of the bright, spacious, airy rooms are well appointed and have TVs with integrated DVD/CD players, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryers, bathrobes and a range of toiletries and bath products in the en suite bathrooms.

The guest house offers uncompromising comfort and style, together with a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. All of the rooms have free Wi-Fi wireless broadband internet access, including the sumptuous guest lounge. The guest lounge has an impressive inglenook fireplace with a log burner, French oak furniture and sumptuous leather sofas, providing the perfect ambience in which to relax. Guests are welcome to browse and select from a small library of books, CDs and DVDs, which can be enjoyed in the comfort of your room. The lounge also has a mini mp3 stereo system so you can relax or read with your favourite music in the background. Informal meetings for up to 10 people can be held in the lounge or even in the garden in summer. More formal meetings can be accommodated in the dining room, around the large solid oak table. The guest house can also provide catering arrangements to suit your needs, from simple drinks and snacks to an imaginative and mouth-watering hot or cold buffet meal.

The beautiful professionally landscaped gardens are a delight to explore and relax in, with immaculate lawns, mature flower borders and an ornamental fish pond. Stroll around the garden and you will also come across the small collection of rare breed hens, providers of many a fine breakfast and always a pleasure to watch as they scurry about their busy lives.

There is a suspended deck over the fish pond, where you can sit and contemplate the beautiful setting and perhaps feed the fish. There is also a private guest patio situated just off the guest lounge. Here you can sit and take breakfast in the sun or enjoy a relaxing evening drink at the end of the day.
