“Hospitality above and beyond the call of duty!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed at The Library House in November 2011 to celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary.
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome by Lizzie and Fizz, instantly offering us tea and cake.
Lizzie takes hospitality to a new level, always on hand for her guests, breakfast was delicious - it set us up for the days sightseeing, and the glass each evening an added treat. We really felt like we were staying at friends.
The B & B is very close to the Iron Bridge but is tucked away which makes it lovely and quiet, with lots of different restaurants to choose from - all within walking distance.
We can highly recommed and hope to return before too long.

Thanks Lizzie for a lovely weekend - keep up the good work.

Paul & Claire.

“Six Star B & B”

person found this review helpful

Despite our short notice request for a 2 night stay, the accommodation and welcome was suberb. This was our second stay at The Library House and the previous high standard was maintained. Lizzie is a warm and wonderful host, as well as an excellent cook. If you are visiting Ironbridge and want quality accommodation, this is the place to relax.

““A Rare Find Indeed.””
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

The Library House is one of those wonderful discoveries. The attention to detail is amazing and our stay felt like visiting friends. Lizzie and Fizz (the adorable family dog) were great hosts and made our party of four felt instantly welcome.

Everywhere you look there is an interesting artefact or picture, skilfully placed, lovingly chosen. The coffee and cake on our arrival was much appreciated and after a busy day, a glass of wine went down well.

Our room (The Eliot Bedroom) was tastefully furnished with everything we could have wanted (coffee, tea, bottled water, lovely toiletries and even a few sweets). It was peaceful and quiet but afforded a peep down the short cobbled lane, across to the river and wooded hillside. Our friends fell in love with their very comfortable Milton Room.

The excellent breakfast gave us plenty of choice and was beautifully presented. Parking in the nearby car park was easy with the complimentary guest permit. How I wish that we could have stayed longer.

“All you could wish for in a tip-top B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011

I stay overnight in Telford on business a couple of nights a year, and until I found The Library House in Ironbridge I stayed in local hotels. I couldn't believe my luck when I happened upon The Library House three or four years ago. The standard of accommodation is excellent with quiet, dark, pleasant "English country house hotel" style rooms and very comfortable beds, and ensuite bathrooms, the breakfast is great with fruit, yogurt, and the full English, and Linda the owner is friendly, cheerful and efficient.

And my wife was charmed too when we stayed as a couple!
