Lovely place to stay

Went to a regatta at Ironbridge. Travelling on my own I felt safe at the accommodation and it was a lovely stay. The food at the pub is amazing and all the staff so friendly and helpful. The room was very cute and had everything that I needed, including a small fridge that was a bonus as it was very hot and kept my water cool. Parking is next to the pub and had no issues. There was a fan in the room that kept the room cool overnight. Def recommend.

Quiet retreat from the world

Beautiful location. I tend to stay on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when the pub is closed. Then it's a really quiet place to relax. The rooms are quaint and clean, if a little dated.

Room was ok, but being a pub, it was disappointing to find on Friday that the bar shut after food service around 8:30pm. Had to walk over a mile in the dark to another pub for a drink. No breakfast offer, so returned to the other pub next morning for that.

Cosy country pub near Ironbridge.

Overnight stay in cosy pub in Coalport. Although pub didnt open until 5pm, early room check in was available without issue . Clean room with comfy bed and everything you need for a short stay.

Great room in a quiet peaceful area

Room and cleanliness was very good. Parking out front available free. Word of caution that on Wednesdays the pub is closed and therefore you have to do self check-in. So look out for a separate email from the pub directly. Access is straight forward, although initially unexpected.

Room was clean, plenty of tea and coffee makings! Pub closed at 10.00pm which was great as rooms were above the premises. Comfortable bed. A fair price for the room. All in all a very positive experience! Thank you!

Give the Shakespeare Inn a visit..

Simple straight forward, pick up keys and enjoy the area. The pub offer some tasty choices and Apple desert ticks the box. Room was large without being too big and with windows front and back plenty of natural light. Heating was just right with an additional portable heater if needed, but didn't need it. They also provide an Iron and Ironing board which is a nice touch. My one niggle was there is no heating in the bathroom, as the weather was mild it's not an issue but come November it might, a heated towel rail would be just enough to take the chill off when then time comes. Out back there is a small play area with swing, seesaw and roundabout (which I had a go to test) Otherwise a very nice setup.

Great room. Very clean. Had what I wanted in a room. However, for those who are not good at going up steps this is not the property for you, as one has to climb up quite steep outside steps to reach at least two rooms. The fridge in my room was very noisy.
