"This cottage was a beautiful little place for our weekend away."
The location and view is stunning especially in the bedrooms and it was nice and clean it didn’t quite get full marks because we felt upstairs hadn’t been hoovered very well as my husband trod on a clothing tag and there was a few little bits on the carpet. Everything was comfy and a log burner was an added bonus it added to the cosy cottage feeling. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could imagine and everything worked well. We only had trouble with the toilet which needed attention on the last day and we alerted the owner so they can fix this. The shower is great. Overall a perfect place for a few nights stay exploring ironbridge. I would just warn anyone staying that there is a very steep hill down into ironbridge and it’s a fairly long walk to blists hill but if you love walking this will not be an issue.

"32 Church Hill is a real home from home."
Everything we needed had been thought of. Extremely clean, very comfortable and the welcome basket was really appreciated. Top of my tick list is always a comfy bed and this was definitely met. Set in a lovely area, with fabulous views. We were grateful for the easy parking close to the Cottage. Others have mentioned the walk from the town to the cottage being a challenge and we would agree, but it in no way spoiled our experience. We highly recommend this beautiful cottage.

"A nice but quirky little house."
Fascinating finding the back door on first floor. Also found it very odd lying in bed looking at the ceiling with the different angles.but all a very comfortable place. A couple of small details, the cistern needs some attention as the handle had to be returned manually otherwise it kept flushing, the fridge was a little bit on small side could do with a normal sized under counter fridge only and possible a small table top freezer in the laundry room same as we have found in other small properties.

"Great place to stay amazing view over valley plus ideal for touring area ..."
Great place to stay amazing view over valley plus ideal for touring area seating area to rear could do with brighting up a bit but nice place to sit otherwise would stay again

"Lovely property with great attention to detail."
Super location,

"Easy parking, enjoyed the cottage."
The views from bedroom were brilliant, couldn’t fault the place.
-
"The property is well provisioned and in an excellent position away from the main road."
The views from the bedroom window are wonderful and the outside space was a joy to use when we relaxed at the end of the day. It was a lovely surprise to find tea/coffee and milk when we arrived and the other treats were also appreciated. The location was so good that we didn't have to move the car all week, as all the museum's were within easy walking distance. We also walked to Buildwas Abby and Benthall Hall, which were both close by and worth a visit. The best thing was how clean and comfortable it was. Thank you!

"The cottage was warm and comfortable and had everything we needed for an enjoyable weeks holiday in May, including a nice welcome pack, the area was very nice, the only downside was the steep hill to walk up after visiting the town, we had to take a breather a couple of times and we consider ourselves reasonably fit in our 70s."

"Lovely cottage in a great location."
We really appreciated the parking near the cottage. Thank you for the wine, milk and biscuits. We will definitely come back to this cottage.

"A lovely well turned out property, with all the comforts of home."
A quiet location with easy access to Ironbridge Town.
-
"A delightful cottage for 3 which retains original features such as fireplaces while providing comfortable, retro-themed modern facilities."
The bedrooms have stunning views across the river. We had a very pleasant weekend there. It is about a 5-minute walk down into Ironbridge town with its independent shops and cafes and of course the Ironbridge, but note you need to be reasonably fit to manage the uphill walk back! Pay close attention to directions as the upper roads of Ironbridge are quite narrow with some acute junctions.

"Really liked how modern everything was, door handles, taps etc felt tight as a drum."
Oven was a bit tricky, kept turning itself off during cooking, but this seemed to sort itself out by the end of the week. Smoke alarms were too sensitive, went off every time we had a fry up. Seating and bed were very comfortable. Lovely to have enough condiments, laundry/dishwasher tabs etc for the week. Parking pass was a nice touch too. Overall a fantastic property and would definitely use again when in the area.

"A very enjoyable break in a lovely comfortable and clean cottage."
Could not have asked for anywhere better.
-
"Lovely cottage well situated for all attractions."
-
"A wonderful cottage."
Bright, clean and beautiful and so well maintained and equipped. We loved it. The owners have thought of everything. Iron bridge is an amazing place. There is so much to see and do in the town and the walking is fantastic too. The views from the bedroom windows are spectacular. Such a special place.

"A lovely cottage in a great location and so good to have parking."
-
"We really enjoyed our stay."
32 Church Hill had everything that we needed and hosts Janet and Mick could not have been more helpful. Location was ideal for exploring the surrounding area and parking right outside the house was great. Would definitely recommend.
-
"I love this property, perfect for me as a solo traveller."
I came in May, but have an op due shortly so fancied a pre op winter break, to really use the wood burner which didn't disappoint. On this occasion, owner Janet texted to warn me a couple of roads were shut, a great help as I was able to adjust my route in to avoid the Christmas lights switch on. Very grateful for that, this is a lovely place, in a nice central location for Shropshire. Definitely check it out (just not when I want to book it, please ! ) Matt

"Lovely property and a fab place to stay for a girly weekend getaway."
Quiet, close to all the local amenities and really well equipped. Would definitely return.
-
"Lovely well equipped cottage with a quirky vintage style in a great setting - ideal for the amenities and attractions of Ironbridge."
Lots of fascinating sites within walking distance, as long as you don't mind the climb back up Church Hill.
-
"Cosy, comfortable cottage with everything a couple need for a good stay away from home."
Car parking is on the road which is tight so maybe not the best choice if you own a 4x4 but fine for a small/medium sized car. Very handy for the Gorge and all the industrial historic sites as well as for exploring Shropshire. Good value for money.
-
"Exceptionally clean cottage."
Loved the vintage theme running throughout and the welcome pack was much appreciated. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment.
-
"We loved it!"
Nicely presented, quiet and a short walk down into Ironbridge and over to the Coalbrookdale museums. It suited us perfectly.
-
"Property was comfortable and well equipped."
Great position for visiting all the local attractions and National Trust. Even used the local bus to Shrewsbury. As said property is on a hill, but by the end of the week, it got easier! Thank you for a lovely stay and the welcome pack.
-
"I found two bugs under my pillow, which really startled me."
Several cobwebs throughout the cottage. However on out arrival there was a nice fresh smell about the whole cottage.
-
"We found the cottage to be clean,comfortable and well provisioned, perfect for visiting Ironbridge and the surrounding area."
Just one small thing, we would have preferred a shower room rather than a shower in the bath.
-
"Excellent cottage, well equipped."
Nice kitchen with everything you could need provided. Very comfy bed. Excellent position within Ironbridge. We had a great week at the cottage and hope to return.
-
"Lovely cottage in walking distance to the village and some lovely places to eat and drink."
Easy access to lots of great days out too! Very clean and comfortable We had a great stay
-
"Hi Thank you for a lovely stay in your cottage comfortable very well equipped every thing you would need ."
A free parking pass is provided which is great never had that before .location was perfect for walks around the area Dalbys tea shop a must visit
-
"Cottage is clean, comfortable, and warm."
Handy for the local pubs/restaurants, but as the address implies it's on a hill, like most of Ironbridge, so you work off the evening meal walking back up the hill.
-
"Fantastic property."
Tastefully decorated and comfortable bed. Beautiful views of the valley from both bedrooms. Comfy sofa and a great TV in the lounge, next to an easy to use fireplace. Very much appreciated the welcome package (milk, biscuits and fizz). The visitors parking permit was useful for trips to the local shops. Issues we had - The tesco delivery driver refused to come up the narrow road in the dark (was not wet or icy), I had to meet him down by the iron bridge to collect the order! The fridge freezer is small, so be careful how much you buy. The road in both directions is steep, not to be underestimated if you're not a keen walker. Overall we really recommend this property.
-
"A wonderful cosy cottage in a great location."
The cottage was spotless and a real home from home ! It was equipped with everything we could need and more. A perfect Autumn getaway.
-
"Sadly I had to return home yesterday after a lovely week at 32 Church Hill."
I found the property to be clean, comfortable and a pleasure to return to after a day out exploring the area. I was a lone traveller, but found the property to be well stocked with crockery, cutlery etc for its maximum occupancy. No complaints from me, I had a very happy time here!
-
"Lovely well equipped and clean cottage."
Owner really nice and helpful! Beautiful location and very reasonable price. A perfect in everyway cottage situated in the best place in Ironbridge with beautiful views. A home from home!!! Thank you so much from us all.
-
"Lovely cottage, comfortable beds and everything we needed for a week break."
Great location. Thank you
-
"Perhaps warning people the steepness of the hills if walking in & back to Ironbridge centre!"
! We found some steps by St Lukes Church that made it a bit easier especially with the heat as went under the building so in the shade!! The property was fine but a small casserole would have been useful.
-
"A lovely quirky cottage."
Although small it was very well equipped and spotlessly clean, with big soft towels and a lovely comfortable bed. The milk and bottle of Prosecco in the fridge were much appreciated and a nice touch. The cottage is situated on quite a steep hill, the road is quite narrow but there is room to park a car directly outside the property. It is about a 10 minute walk downhill from the cottage to the centre of Ironbridge and slightly longer to walk back. Being from Wales we are used to walking up and down hills!! I would highly recommend this cottage if you are planning on visiting Ironbridge.
-
"This is the perfect property to stay while exploring this lovely area."
The weather was perfect and we had a fantastic stay.
-
"Lovely quirky cottage and stylish to the theme - did us perfect."
Everything required was available and all very clean. Steep hills and first time arriving in the car was a bit tight but then thereon was fine - walk up from town was ok, just took it slowly. Very nice stay.
-
"Lovely accommodation and what we wanted."
However, if you are not very mobile then it is difficult to walk the 300yds to the Town centre. I went for nice Fish & Chips but my wife could not have done it. Still, well recommended by us and the Owners provided milk we etc and Prosecco so we are not complaining. Good value
-
"Lovely stay in your cosy, clean and comfortable property, great outlook."
Would recommend to other people.
-
"Lovely well appointed cottage,cosy and comfortable, good location and great views."
Excellent base for exploring Ironbridge, museums and local area.
-
"Thoroughly enjoyed staying at the cottage."
Generous welcome pack. Thought been taken with the decor and interesting little touches-a bit retro.Great views of the gorge. Woodburner very effective and made it cosy. Central location and only few minutes from centre of Ironbridge and walk back up the hill makes you fit! Easy parking and quiet.
-
"This was one of the best cottages we have stayed in."
It was cosy and exceptionally clean with some welcome goodies which we enjoyed.
-
"Cosy cottage in a fantastic location with views over the gorge, equipped with everything you'll need for a stay away."
Parking directly outside with plenty of access in and out of the village to many local attractions including towns and villages where you'll find plenty of pubs serving good food and local ales etc. Easy walking access along the tracks and roads into Ironbridge itself. Mick & Janet were very welcoming and we found a bottle of wine, a pack of biscuits, and a bottle of milk on our arrival making for easy refreshment after a long journey. Will definitely be returning at some point.
-
"This is a super property which was ideal for the 2 of us."
The presentation of the property was to a high standard with new carpets, new kitchen equipment and crockery, excellent decoration, towels, bed linen, quality hardwood logs for the stove and the nice touched of biscuits, milk and sparkling wine. The owner kindly checked with us that everything was okay. The property is in a great location and we would highly recommend to friends and family. We could easily park outside which meant loading and unloading was very easy. Well done to the owners and to Sykes for getting this property on your listing.
-
"A lovely little getaway."
Lovely and clean accommodation with everything we needed. Ideally located for Ironbridge. Kept us very fit being uphill. Comfy bed and pillows. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
-
"Wonderful cottage in a perfect location."
Everything we needed for a relaxing stay, great facilities, especially the shower. Very comfortable bed, excellent quality bedding and towels. The cottage was spotlessly clean and there was a good supply of logs for the wood burner. No issues with parking. Prosecco, milk and biscuits provided on arrival, which was much appreciated! Look forward to returning soon.
-
"Just got back from a lovely weekend break in this wonderful charming cottage."
It had everything required, fantastic rain shower (with good water pressure) compact kitchen with everything we needed, including a lovely welcome pack of milk, biscuits and a bottle of prosecco! The log burner in the living room was amazing and the owners had stocked up with more than enough logs for us to keep the chill out. The whole cottage was fitted out and finished to a good standard, and the beds were super comfy for a great night sleep. We parked the car up right outside and walked everywhere, and we actually enjoyed the refreshing climb back up the lanes from the village, even with a 4 yr old on my shoulders. Highly recommended, 5 stars!

About the location
IRONBRIDGE
Telford 6 miles; Bridgnorth 8.5 miles; Shrewsbury 15 miles.
Ironbridge Gorge is known throughout the world as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Today the area is far from industrial and nature has reclaimed most of the former industrial sites, leaving a unique and beautiful wooded valley. The gorge is a now a maze of footpaths, bridleways and country lanes whilst the delightful village is famous for being home of the world's first iron-built bridge, built between 1777-79. The village has a splendid variety of pubs, restaurants, shops and tea rooms and a collection of ten industrial and Victorian themed museums makes up the Ironbridge Museums Trust, including the exciting Blists Hill Victorian Village. Within driving distance are the popular historical towns of Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth, Much Wenlock and Ludlow, as well as the Wroxeter Roman City, the Severn valley Railway, the RAF Cosford Museum and many National Trust properties. Ironbridge is a wonderful base from which to explore the beautiful county of Shropshire.
