Lovely room with some nice touches like a coffee pod dispenser (would have been even better if there was a decaf option as I would have loved to have used it). Also there was some jelly beans and a bottle of water. All nice touches that you don’t expect.
Breakfast excellent.
Would definitely stay again. Wish this place was a little nearer to Shrewsbury, I’d stay every week !
- John (10/5): Excellent stay - Cannot rate highly enough. We both thought it was the best B&B we'd ever stayed in.

Thanks so much. we will be back!
- Scott (10/5): - Lovely little place and perfect for our stay. The host (Rebecca) was so lovely and hospitable, went out of her way to make sure we had a great stay and I can’t speak highly enough of her. Excellent facilities in the room, cracking home cooked breakfast.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Wonderful stay - We had a brilliant stay at the Moorhead with a lovely room, an amazing shower and extra finishing touches in the room like jellie beans and sleep tea! Breakfast was wonderful - lots of lovely fresh fruit and a cooked breakfast that could not be matched. Rebecca couldn’t have been more kind or welcoming and we loved being immersed in the countryside, feeding apples to the ponies and watching the chickens cluck around! Thank you for a wonderful weekend. 😊
