Very comfortable house in converted Jackfield Old School. Grandparents had the en-suite bedroom on the second floor and parents and 2 boys had the double and twin bedrooms with family bathroom on the first floor. Open plan kitchen, diner, lounge was perfect for us all and there is a balcony and small garden perfect for eating outside. Walking distance along the river to many attractions in the Ironbridge Gorge as well as a multitude of pubs serving good food.
The property was great. Everything we needed in an excellent location. Lots of pubs, restaurants and walks on our doorstep. Fay was very responsive to any queries we had. Will definitely come back.
