About this property

With a designated off-road parking space for the property and an open-plan living area, The Office rests in Ironbridge and is a fantastic base for a couple looking for a getaway to Shropshire. Follow a small road surrounded by bird song and mature trees to discover this lovely one bedroom property, noticing the two delightful sitting areas where you will be drawn to enjoy morning coffee in the sunshine as you plan your itinerary for the day, also housing storage for bikes and golf clubs. Be welcomed into a beautifully furnished open-plan living area, with a fantastic kitchen housing all of the amenities needed to create a romantic meal for two, which can be enjoyed with your significant other at the dining table accompanied by a glass of your favourite beverage. As the evening wears on, curl up in the corner sofa to enjoy a movie night before ascending the oak staircase and freshening up in the contemporary shower room and settling down in the homely double bedroom. Ironbridge is a lovely town resting beside the River Severn in Shropshire. The town houses a selection of tasty eateries, cafes and pubs, so you can enjoy a meal out when you don’t feel like cooking, and a convenience store where you can stock up on essentials. Enjoy a stroll beside the River Severn, past the Ion Bridge, or visit the historic Bedlam Furnaces, and there are also a handful of close by museums including the Ironbridge George Museum, Enginuity and Jackfield Tile Museum. Try out a game of golf at Horsehay Village Golf Centre or Shropshire Golf Course, before taking a walk, through local scenery at The Wrekin, near which you can discover the ruins of Buildwas Abbey. From here you will find Shrewsbury housing loads of eateries and shops to explore, beside which there is the fascinating Wroxeter Roman City, the bustling city of Birmingham, home to an extensive Christmas market, and the Cannick Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where countryside walks can be enjoyed. Explore the history and heritage of Shropshire with a stay at The Office.

Ironbridge Gorge is known throughout the world as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Today the area is far from industrial and nature has reclaimed most of the former industrial sites, leaving a unique and beautiful wooded valley. The gorge is a now a maze of footpaths, bridleways and country lanes whilst the delightful village is famous for being home of the world's first iron-built bridge, built between 1777-79. The village has a splendid variety of pubs, restaurants, shops and tea rooms and a collection of ten industrial and Victorian themed museums makes up the Ironbridge Museums Trust, including the exciting Blists Hill Victorian Village. Within driving distance are the popular historical towns of Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth, Much Wenlock and Ludlow, as well as the Wroxeter Roman City, the Severn valley Railway, the RAF Cosford Museum and many National Trust properties. Ironbridge is a wonderful base from which to explore the beautiful county of Shropshire.

  • Stephen

    The Office was all as described, very clean and comfortable and had all the facilities required and close to all the amenities and museums. No real issues, the walk up the hill was a bit of a struggle, but then we knew that. There was a problem with hot water first thging but easily sorted. Highly recommend.

  • Amanda

    The cottage was comfortable and very well equipped. Communication with the owner was very good before and during our stay. As we staying at Christmas we were offered the option of Christmas decorations which we appreciated. The cottage is very close to the centre of Ironbridge with pubs and restaurants a short walk away. The cottage was set back up a steep hill in a quiet position. The owner kept us informed and gave us plenty of notice when the Ironbridge flood defences went up and arranged alternative parking due to road closures. We really enjoyed our stay and are considering booking again.

    Warm, modern and everything you need. Close to the little shops and pubs in the quaint town. Perfect for a couple for a weekend break. Excellent communication prior to arrival. Highly recommended.
