Didnt know what to expect when we arrived but the cottage was set up amazingly was suprised to see that both bedrooms had en suites and also a downstairs toilet so no up and down the stairs all the time the cottage was beautiful comfortable and homely it was like walking into your own house had all amenities and more the stay was amazing the beds comfortable and everything and more than we expected if we are down that way again will definitely be re renting thank you for an amazing holiday let

Alastair

The cottage itself was in a perfect position for visiting the area and really comfortable. Did feel that it could benefit from a washing machine and airer. Also a key for the No 8 door would have been better as the gate was hanging off on No 7. Also some cleaning materials would help. But overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely use it again.

Hayley

Absolutely stunning cottage in a gorgeous location! We couldnt believe the amount of utensils blankets home comforts in the cottage we really did feel like we had borrowed someones home for a few days

We normally stay in a hotel when we visit family in Ironbridge area but we thought that we would try a cottage with our toddler! It was perfect. Great space to live comfortably for the week with everything that you could need. The only added benefit would be a washing machine although not essential. The bedrooms were very comfortable and bedding and towels provided. The parking space was a great addition although down a slope on the other side of the road which wasnt a problem for us. It was so nice that our family who live in the area want to book and stay for a week!

Lovely place to stay for our short weekend break. Took a little while to figure out where we should park the car but the next door neighbour was very helpful. Lovely clean cottage with comfortable beds. Would definitely think about staying there again

Loved the cottage beautifully decorated. Would love to stay here again but please

Jennifer

Lovely cottage in a great location. Lots of things to see and do in the area. We enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean and comfortable.

A lovely house but we had trouble getting in as there was no key as the keybox was broken. The shower needs looking at as the temperature swung between cold and scalding hot. The description says patio furniture but there wasn't any. Some hand soap in the bathrooms and a hairdryer provided would be nice too. A beautiful cottage and we enjoyed our stay.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at No 7 and have returned home fully rejuvenated. The cottage was tastefully presented, spotless clean and had everything we needed. Once we had our bearings, we discovered we were perfectly placed to visit many of the local attractions on foot and straight from the door. The wonderfully scenic walks from the cottage are plentiful and some are truly spectacular. We only used our car once and this was to take in some of the attractions further afield. However, there is so much to do in the local area you are spoiled for choice and No 7 will be the perfect spot to return to, to discover more of them.

Michael

Decor was nice although some painted areas were peeling. The cottage was very comfortable. It would have been handy to have a couple of small saucepans in the kitchen. I did not find a visitors book or any leaflets of attractions in the surrounding area which would have been nice, although you can look things up on your phone. A lovely stay even with the wet weather.

Nicolette

An absolutely gorgeous and spotlessly clean cottage. The location is perfect a short walk away from lovely pubs, some great museums, and 1010 fish and chips. Theres no washing machine the listing is clear about this but we can recommend Dawley Laundrette which was great. It wouldve been useful to have some cleaning supplies, extra bin bags, and a couple of extra dishwasher tablets.

Catherine

The property is spacious, comfortable and immaculately clean. Its the perfect base to explore Ironbridge, a short walk down the hill. We loved our stay

I cant use the words I would like to describe our stay! !! Although the cottage is in a beautiful village we had to cut our stay short! The OWNER decided to have a party next door, although her instructions clearly state NO parties! Ive never felt so intimidated in my life! This property wasnt cheap and I didnt expect to be spoken to in the way I was! My 7 yr old grandson was in tears! Despite the good quality of the towels we certainly would not recommend staying here!

A gorgeously appointed property in an excellent location to explore all that Ironbridge has to offer. Things we found Hosts were helpful and quick to respond when we had a question. You may wish to bring kitchen surface cleaner, tea towels, oven gloves and bin bags. Car parking not immediately obvious but very handy. Beds were superbly comfortable but are quite high so may be difficult for some to get into. We had an absolutely fabulous stay and would thoroughly recommend a holiday at this property!

The only words that came out of our mouths when we first stepped through the door of No 7 were WOW ! ! It is a STUNNING cottage. I love the stable doors , the tiled floors and the whole quirky feel about it and the decoration is beautiful . We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here . Yes the stairs are steep but theres a good handrail to hold onto so wasnt an issue for us . Great location, spotlessly clean and lots of appliances for us to enjoy . Will definitely be back and thank you

A beautiful cottage with lots of thoughtful details included. Fantastic location for exploring Ironbridge with lovely dog walks on the doorstep. A little seat on the front patio would be a great addition.

Pieter

Beautifully decorated property in a lovely location. Kitchen well equipped. No hairdryer though.

No 7 is approximately 30 minutes walk to Ironbridge. Two museums conveniently situated directly opposite the house to visit and a fantastic but pricy cafe but these local attractions are not open Mondays or Tuesdays. Great location for all of the Blists Hill associated museums and you can also take dogs to Blists Hill and the gorge museum which is a big plus but none of the others we found allowed dogs. The cottage itself is very quaint, decorated and furnished to a good standard. I didnt realise I needed to bring a hairdryer as I assumed it would be a standard item, there are three televisions and three toilets! We visited end of February and the log burner is still not connected sadly and there is a draft from the fireplace but throws are provided, the heating works well and the water pressure is off the scale! Very handy large cloakroom. Hopefully the lighting in the bathroom and a shower issue will be fixed next time we come. Would highly recommend this place, especially if you like walking as there are lots of hill walks from the house locally, my boys spotted deer and a fox at close distance

Malcolm

Wonderful cottage. Spacious, clean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. Great location and we really enjoyed our stay. The instructions for parking really need to be clearer as we had no idea where to go and it wasnt at all obvious. No instructions in the cottage, it was only due to the friendly neighbour that we found it.

Sharon

What a gem! ! Beautiful cottage with lots of original features as well as all the mod cons and contemporary styling. Has everything you need and ideally located 2 mins walk to pub, 10 mins to Coop and it really is only a 20 mins walk to Ironbridge. Downstairs toilet an added plus and the reserved parking space was much appreciated. If it's available book it !!

Nicola

This is a beautiful property, everything you need, home from home. The stairs are very steep but this is mentioned in the details. Location is good local pub only 50 yards away very friendly. Only thing we didn't have was oven gloves but everything else way top notch. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic cottage in a fantastic location

Andrea

We loved our stay no 7, lovely cottage done out to a good standard, no fallouts for the toilet or what to watch on tv, good wifi signal. Plenty to see & do within the surrounding area, walkable for Ironbridge, drivable for Telford & Shrewsbury, also some lovely quaint villages nearby. Everyone very friendly & welcoming, will definitely visit again & would recommend the cottages to others
