Excellent Place to Stay
This place is a hidden gem. Very comfortable place in a location close to attractions. The room and toilets were very clean. Good amenities. The parking was beside the road, but enough spaces. The only negative thing we felt was the unfriendly nature of the staff.

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.

Coalport stay
Rooms was as described in info. Plenty of space for a family. The small fridge was a nice addition. Room was above the bar so a little noisy but quietened down after 11.30pm. Room was quite light despite blackout blind on one window. No soap in bathroom but quickly addressed once staff advised.
Service was patchy. Not an overly friendly welcome with first request for payment. Ate in the pub but a bit disappointed with service, food and drinks.
Good playground and pub garden

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.

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.

Great location in tourist spot with bar and restaurant. Disappointed however that they did not serve breakfast and there was no where else immediately nearby.
