  A fabulous location with just a short 15 minute walk into Ironbridge.

  The cottage has been renovated to a high standard throughout and provides the perfect base for exploring Shropshire. We did find that the description of the property was not entirely accurate. It says that there is a wood burning stove, which there is, but it is not connected. It has no flue and is still mounted to the pallet it was delivered on. It would not be safe to light this until it has been correctly installed and feel it should be taken off the description until this has happened as it was one of the reasons we booked the cottage. It should also be mentioned that the patio is at the front of the cottage and not a private one at the back in the description and not just the bullet points. Parking is a bonus but feel that for people with any sort of mobility issues it should be noted that it is down a hill and a cross a road from the cottage. The stairs are narrow and steep so it can be difficult to get a suitcase up and down the stairs even at the age of 44. Just thinking of health and safety for future visitors that may have not been considered. We also feel that if you offer shampoo, conditioner and shower gel in dispensers these should be filled up. Two were empty when we arrived and whilst the shower is beautiful there is nowhere to put any of your own products except on the floor. The bedroom is very nicely decorated but both my partner and I struggled with the height of the bed and bed frame. It was too high for us and meant that it was hard to get in and out of and difficult to sit or perch on the edge as you would do at home. I think the cottage would benefit from a ‘Welcome’ folder. There were some leaflets for the local area and a framed ‘Welcome’ sign but nothing that tells you where to empty the kitchen bin to, nothing that says that after a shower please keep the extractor fan on and the door closed because the heat and steam will set off the fire alarm, (which happened several times before we realised what was causing it), the nearest place for a mobile phone signal in case of emergencies, local dr’s and dentists and the fact that there is no ‘live’ TV signal at the property. Lots of things which may not affect your stay if only visiting for a long weekend but we stayed for a week and so were noticing things that others may not. All things mentioned are observations as we aren’t sure how long the property has been a holiday home for.

  Excellent dog friendly accommodation with warm and friendly hosts. The cottage was very comfortable with an amazing shower and very cozy beds. Great welcome hamper including treats for our two border collies who were made very welcome. The garden is lovely, fully enclosed and private. It is not attached to the house but to the side which means if you have dogs like mine, we had to put them on leads to go out of the front door to get to it but once they were in, they could run free without a care in the world. There is also a fully enclosed large farmers field opposite the house which we were allowed to use. This was great for early morning walks with the dogs before we set out for our adventures. Not sure this is available to guests all year round as there definitely has been livestock in it but it was a great bonus. Great pub about a minutes walk away which was great too. The food was amazing and it's dog friendly. A fantastic, well equipped cottage overall. Would definitely recommend. An exceptional cottage in our opinion.

  This cottage was perfect for two people.

  The location is beautiful and just a 20 minute walk from Ironbridge with lovely pubs and shops. Other museums were on the doorstep with the local pub a few minutes walk. Outstandingly clean, a well equipped kitchen, TVs in lounge and both bedrooms and shampoo, conditioner and gel in the shower. Bedrooms luxurious and comfy. Initially the parking seemed tricky but you quickly get used to it and it’s just across the road. No criticisms at all but considerations for us would be the stairs- narrow and sheer, downstairs bathroom if you’re a nighttime loo user and space is compact around the furniture. People along this row tend to sit outside in the front gardens since there is no rear facility and it felt very neighbourly. Our adult children are looking to come and see for themselves as they were so impressed with our experience here. We would certainly return as there is so much to see.

  You can tell the owners have put a lot of love and effort into making the place feel high standard. No cheap furniture, everything was high quality and it showed and was appreciated. Bed was super comfy and the bedding was lovely. Roll top bath was a joy to relax into. We received a lovely warm welcome and everything felt personalised down to providing us with a personal list of things we might enjoy based on our conversation we had about what we like to do. Received fresh flowers and wine on arrival and thank you for the special touch at the Angel for our celebrations. And a great meal choice too! We stayed 3 nights here, everything felt peaceful and away from it all. And I think they have been really creative with how they’ve designed the property. I would recommend to others. Thank you Anya. You made it a lovely stay.

  The cottage is lovely and quaint.

  It was clean and tidy and in a great location. However, one of the main reasons for us booking it was the listed Wood Burner which turned out not to be working when we arrived (the listing had been edited to say this was not ready until 2024 after we had booked). The water heating was also too temperamental, having to try and get the tap in the perfect position to get any hot water at all; this to me is a basic that should be sorted. Finally, the wifi is shared between several cottages which makes it largely unusable with a poor connection and constant buffering. This is also unacceptable given the price paid for the stay. All issues were mentioned to the owners, but it didn’t seem they were too keen on resolving them to be honest, maybe given the time of year that we visited.
