    The accommodation is superbly located. Close to centre of Shrewsbury but still peaceful. Great food and drink a matter of yards away. All the facilities of high quality and the beds so comfortable. Welcome pack much appreciated. Finally the river frontage is marvellous so relaxing to sit with a glass of wine and watch the world go by. Can't recommend highly enough.

  • John

    The water views are superb, we sat out morning with coffee and evening with wine to watch the boats and walkers across the way. The local coffee house and the Coleham Tap were great to start and finish our days. The only minor negative is lack of clothes washer and the bathroom door being loose.

  • John

    Excellent seating on the River Severn - great or watching the parade across the way and the occasional rowers going by. Rooms are comfortable and kitchen amenities are nice.
