Very comfortable hotel with helpful staff in a good location on the edge of the village.
Pros:

Very good breakfast. Relaxed atmosphere in an airy room ( it was a heatwave) and Julie looked after us beautifully. We had to change bedroom due to the heat and it was done swiftly. ALL reception staff were excellent.

Cons:

Can't fault it.

We really enjoyed our stay. All rhe staff were very helpful and kind, the location ideal and we will be returning.
Pros:

The location was excellent, so handy for Ironbrige generally and all its attractions and a beautiful walk outside in the park down to the river.

Cons:

I was concerned about the bannister rail at the top of the long flight of stairs to the very top floor. The banister started too late at the top for easy access to your hand to start down the stairs so you had to lean forward to grab it….. not good for an elderly or slightly unsteady person.
We were given bottled water on our first night with the coffees and teas but not replaced again. I suppose the tap cold water was ok to drink but not usually acceptable.
Otherwise everything was very good .

Pros:

Assistance with bags going up 2 flights of steps was a godsend.

Cons:

The room had a beautiful view and was lovely but it was so hot. Only 1 window could be opened, we did have two fans which was good. I think the window should have been opened well before our arrival.

Helpful, caring and friendly staff.
Pros:

Comfortable room, and bed. Clean, spacious bathroom. Breakfast was good, full English or whatever you chose. Beautiful grounds and a nice walk along the river. Near to the Iron Bridge for touristy photos.

Cons:

Steep steps for entry but there was a flat entrance further round the building, which I didn't see at first.
Everything else was fine and no complaints.
