Host Review Score
The Library House is a fine, Grade II Listed townhouse that dates back to around 1735 and has served variously as private house, doctor's and dentist's surgeries, town registrar and, as the name suggests, the library. Set back from the road in a quiet backwater,it has been a B&B for around 40 years. The current owners (since 2013) , Sarah and Tim Davis have substantially restored the house, preserving the many original features and decorating it in a sympathetic contemporary style, yet one that suits their collection of antique furniture and artworks that fill the house. For breakfast, the emphasis is on locally sourced, fresh products. In the current hosts' tenure, it has won numerous awards, with guests visiting from all over the world, be it for pleasure or business.
Centrally located in the heart of the historic World Heritage site of Ironbridge with its many bars and restauarants all a short walk away, the town also benefits from eight award-winning museums dedicated to the town's pivotal role in the Industrial Revolution and the resulting growth in industry, all of which are within a short drive or walking distance. Telford International Centre is five miles away and Ironbridge is conveniently situated for Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth and Ludlow. The town is surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and offers fine walking.
