What our customers say about their holidays

  The overall stay was excellent.

  The flat is full of character and decorated with care. The views were second to none and the location in Ironbridge itself was truly special.There was a few things which could make slight improvements. - it said on the listing there was a washing machine but there wasn't. We did plan on washing some of our young son's clothes, it's not a massive issue but it's to bear in mind. - a welcome basket would have been a nice touch. We arrived quite late, meaning we couldn't grab any bits for the morning. Some coffee, tea bags and milk satchets would have been nice. This isn't a deal breaker by any stretch and didn't spoil the stay. - some of the cupboards felt a little 'lived in.' the cleaning cupboard under the sink was what you would expect to find at home, Christmas tree in the storage space and spare bulbs etc. again, it's fine but a little attention to detail would really elevate this already brilliant property. - parking was a little tricky at times as the road leading up to the property and parking area was tight. If you have a bigger car (which we do, unfortunately) it can be a bit touch and go with the walls! - having said all that, we loved staying here, the location was great and perfect for our needs. The flat was lovely, well presented, comfortable and spacious. We'd happily stay here again.

  This is an absolutely amazing house!

  Everything is done so well and each room is a delight. It is so spacious and comfortable. It was completely clean and everything was well maintained. Some reviews have mentioned the steep walk down to Ironbridge and it is true that there is a very definite incline...it didn't trouble us at all and we have stayed in this area before so knew what to expect. It may not be ideal for someone less mobile but there are very few places in Ironbridge that have level access. The upside of the slope is the fantastic views of the gorge from every window of the house. You can see clearly down to the bridge and everything was green and beautiful - the views made the house even more special. Parking is also always a bit of a challenge in the narrow streets around Ironbridge - we took a small car and the garage at the house worked perfectly for us, but there would have been on street parking not too far away every time anyway. All in all, we loved this house and I was sorry when it was time to leave. Next time we are back in the area, it will definitely be my first choice of places to stay.

  This is a fabulous property in an amazing location and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

  The property is well equipped and comfortable as well as cosy. The furniture in the lounge is different to that in the photographs but, in my opinion, it is more cosy now. When we stayed it was decorated for Christmas and the christmas tree was stunning. Although parking and manoeuvring can be tricky and the road is steep, this is clearly explained in the listing so you are aware of what to expect. We would have found cooker instructions useful but there didn't seem to be any. Also, one of the glass cooking dishes was badly chipped on the handle and one of our party received a bad cut. In addition, one of the stair handrails is loose and needs repairing. We do appreciate that owners are not always made aware of such issues and are usually quick to respond and address them. Having said all that, we would definitely still recommend the property and stay again as it is really lovely and there's lots to see and do in the area.

  We had a lovely stay at the Olde Drill House with our French bulldog.

  The accommodation is surprisingly big and the location to the Main Street is ideal. You can see the bridge from the window. We found that the owners were very hands off so if we’d had a problem, there was no contact number which we’ve not experienced before. If you are a light sleeper, you may struggle here as the church is right next to the property and the bells chime very randomly throughout the night. There is no garden so our dog had to go to the toilet on the road outside the front door which wasn’t ideal especially as next door told me she has an aggressive Rottweiler in her house which may “go for” our dog so we felt we needed to be very careful. The garage is tiny so we had to park up the road which is a very steep hill. We decided not to use the car as it felt like a hassle with the narrow, hilly roads. It was a lovely break away and we would definitely visit Ironbridge again.

  Had a great stay in Ironbridge, will return and would certainly recommend.

  The cottage was quirky and the “upstairs” was very clean, and looked like it had been painted fairly recently. The power shower in the en suite was top notch. The kitchen , although had everything required could do with a face lift, especially the taps, sink and water pressure. The blind in the kitchen didn’t open making it rather dark in there. A note should be left to leave it as it is and not to touch it!! On saying that there was all the pots and pans and equipment needed. The door was also difficult to lock (the Yale was sufficient enough though). These are only minor points and in no way impacted on how much we enjoyed the cottage.A welcome pack would have been a lovely touch, something we are used to upon arrival.
