Ironbridge also has many attractions to explore. It is 6 miles from the town of Telford, which provides great transport links and plenty of more shops and restaurants to enjoy. Several walks can be found at Wrekin, Wenlock Edge and the Long Mynd. There are also great road networks linking Shropshire, Herefordshire, Cheshire, and mid and north Wales.

After a couple of issues on check-in, which were sorted very quickly by the owners we settled into our accommodation. It’s a fantastic location with views of the Ironbridge from the main living area and the main bedroom. Good space., the furniture and beds were comfortable. Car parking is just across the bridge and the property close to all the shops and pubs. During our day we tried the local cafés and pubs and we did not have a bad meal anywhere. Some great local walks as well, a great place to stay if you’re just looking for something chilled.

Lovely appartment with fantastic views of the bridge. Appartment slept 5 people but the kitchen table was very small and only had 4 chairs. Kitchen was very cramped.
