    All was well provided for in the property and we appreciated the stylish furnishings. There's a lovely little outdoor seating area so it was a shame that the weather didn't allow us to use it on this occasion!

    Thankyou for your lovely feedback. I’m glad you had a nice time, even allowing for the weather! Hope to see you again in the future, Jude Property Owner

  • "Truly marvellous stay at The Office, much different from our normal ones."

    House was super cosy and a home from home but without the grown up children we still have living at home. Ironbridge gave us lots of memories from walking up some very steep hills, shaking knees descending down very steep hills and loads of places to eat out and replace any calories we might have lost. We walked Benthall Hall/gardens on a super sunny day which was beautiful and also drove to the RAF air museum which my husband enjoyed immensely, warning it’s quite a big museum with 3 hangers to enjoy. We will definitely aim to visit again and thanks to Jude for the bottle of wine/chocolates and anniversary card.

    I’m so glad you had a nice time. It would be lovely for you to stay again in the future. Best wishes, Jude Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely stay for a Christmas break at The Office."

    The cottage was comfortable and very well equipped. Communication with the owner was very good before and during our stay. As we staying at Christmas we were offered the option of Christmas decorations which we appreciated. The cottage is very close to the centre of Ironbridge with pubs and restaurants a short walk away. The cottage was set back up a steep hill in a quiet position. The owner kept us informed and gave us plenty of notice when the Ironbridge flood defences went up and arranged alternative parking due to road closures. We really enjoyed our stay and are considering booking again.

    Thankyou Amanda. I hope you’ll come back and visit again when the weather is kinder. Best wishes, Jude Property Owner

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.
