Cosy country pub near Ironbridge.
Overnight stay in cosy pub in Coalport. Although pub didnt open until 5pm, early room check in was available without issue . Clean room with comfy bed and everything you need for a short stay.

Great room in a quiet peaceful area
Room and cleanliness was very good.
Parking out front available free.
Word of caution that on Wednesdays the pub is closed and therefore you have to do self check-in. So look out for a separate email from the pub directly.
Access is straight forward, although initially unexpected.

Give the Shakespeare Inn a visit..
Simple straight forward, pick up keys and enjoy the area.
The pub offer some tasty choices and Apple desert ticks the box.
Room was large without being too big and with windows front and back plenty of natural light.
Heating was just right with an additional portable heater if needed, but didn't need it. They also provide an Iron and Ironing board which is a nice touch.
My one niggle was there is no heating in the bathroom, as the weather was mild it's not an issue but come November it might, a heated towel rail would be just enough to take the chill off when then time comes.
Out back there is a small play area with swing, seesaw and roundabout (which I had a go to test)
Otherwise a very nice setup.

Great room. Very clean. Had what I wanted in a room.
However, for those who are not good at going up steps this is not the property for you, as one has to climb up quite steep outside steps to reach at least two rooms.
The fridge in my room was very noisy.

Nice quiet hotel down a country lane. Lots of parking, but was hard to find a space on a Friday night. Luckily someone moved so we were able to park. Room was a nice size with en suite. Tea making facilities were provided. Access to room was to rear of pub off the gardens so didn't have to walk through pub. No breakfast on site so had to find a local place. Evening meal was good

The room and its facilities were adequate but rather disappointed to find the restaurant and bar were closed on the two days we were there. No welcome on arrival, just an email saying where to find the key.

Lovely little place
Staff really friendly and helpful.
Room was spacious, clean and well equipped.
The walls are very thin though and it was a little noisy while the pub was open but as soon as the bar closed it was very peaceful. We did hear our neighbour showering at 6am though so worth noting if you are a light sleeper. Wasnt an issue for us. Accommodation was perfect for our short stay.
