Location was amazing, but very difficult to find in the first place. Nicely close to Shrewsbury. Breakfast was good, lovely choice and cooked part well cooked and hot. Room was clean, quiet and adequate, more than I expected. In all, a really good stay.

Marion United Kingdom

Friendly on arrival, breakfast included and the staff were very acocmodating (we had been given an early slot for breakfast, but when I mentioned to Liz on reception that we were finishing work late, she left us a note under the door to say we could go later in the morning!) breakfast was decent (cooked breakfast) and we were offered seconds!

The United Kingdom

Staff went out of way to supply breakfast for us when we had to be on a boat trip by 7am.

Jane United Kingdom

Beautiful place, friendly and helpful staff, tasty breakfast. Very, very nice.

Hazel United Kingdom

Peaceful, comfortable. Good Value. Excellent 'take away' breakfast.

Stephen United Kingdom

We really enjoyed the excellent countryside location. Room was fine,with good size bathroom.Breakfast was just what we wanted & brought to us at the time requested.. A good place to use as a base for a day or two. We were involved with a function in Shrewsbury and wanted somewhere quiet and out of town.Good safe parking.but check in during daylight. Not your usual High St Hotel .

Robert United Kingdom

The location of Preston Montford is superb, easily accessed from main roads yet far enough from any kind of town that you're genuinely in the countryside. Perfect for those wanting a county break without driving along farm tracks to get there. The room is good for hostel accommodation, a private bathroom was welcome.

Thomas United Kingdom

Breakfast was really nice! Lovely staff and good location

Kathryn United Kingdom

Good sized room for a singleton. Excellent broadband speeds adequate for live sport. Very clean and tidy. Real milk available not that UHT stuff. Good sized bathroom and shower works well. Sanitizer hubs available wherever you might need them. Excellent one way system in place. Hot breakfast brought to your door. Location is in the country. Pleasingly heated.

Robin United Kingdom

Brilliant staff and breakfast. Accommodation is obviously basic, but suited our needs and value for money. Bathrooms appeared recently refurbished and clean.
