8/10 Good
"Staff were very friendly and beds were really comfortable, however, the hotel does appear to be in a period of transition. At the time of our visit the lift wasn't working, and there was no food available in the hotel. On a minor point the TV in the room couln't pick up a signal , maybe due to it's position right by the Wrekin. At first glance the hotel does appear to be in an isolated spot, but it is less than 30 minutes drive to all the attractions of the Ironbridge Gorge, Shropshire Hills and Shrewesbury. Telford is about 15 minutes away, and there are a good choice of restaurants there. All in all I would be happy to stay there again."

"A little bit like staying at Grandma's house in the decor. I would like to request that the locks on the doors are upgraded - the current single lock without deadbolt does not feel very secure. Breakfast buffet was small and delivery of hot breakfasts seemed a little slow. But was a pleasant enough stay."
