The Lion Hotel Shrewsbury
Had to pay for parking but led to believe it was included. I was given the option of breakfast included which I wanted. Only to find out in the morning no breakfast available. So why was option there? Not good enough and misleading.

Fallow Field, Telford by Marston's Inns
Fantastic staff both in the evening and at breakfast. Good quality breakfast and clean tidy room. Only negative would be the lighting from the ‘Burger King’ out the black which did come in round the curtain…. I’m pretty light sensitive but was still nice

Tedsmore Cottages
Staff were lovely and welcoming even with a self check in! Came to make sure we had a travel cot and high chair for our baby as we didn’t specify age of our youngest child! Lovely sight we can’t wait to go back
