The Swan Taphouse is an 18th-century malt house on the banks of the River Severn, a 6-minute walk from the Iron Bridge.

All rooms are individually decorated and many have river views.

The busy bar and restaurant serve home-cooked and local food all day long. The Swan Taphouse is a live music venue on some weekend nights.

Museum of the Gorge is a 1-minute walk away and Telford Central Station is a 13-minute drive away.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.
