I had to stay in Shropshire overnight and managed to get a room here. What a lovely surprise this was. The property is situated in beautiful surroundings and quiet countryside. The host Rebecca is simply wonderful. I received a warm welcome and a speedy check in. The bed was really comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. I left feeling fresh and well rested.

Greeted by young lady who was very professional and polite with just the right amount of interest before showing me the room, which was clean and spacious with a nice view out of the bay window onto the garden. Breakfast options were available, quality and quantity were very good. Thoroughly enjoyed my overnight stay.

Moorhead

We had a very enjoyable 3 night stay at the Moorhead B&B. The room and en-suite were very spacious, clean and comfortable.
Breakfast was very well presented, cooked to perfection and there was plenty of choice. Nothing was too much trouble for the owner and our welcome was warm and friendly. Lovely peaceful farm setting with great views from the windows. Looking forward to the next time.

The breakfast was excellent, fresh eggs from the chickens, really good selection of cereals, yoghurt etc and a large cafetière of coffee. What more could you ask for. What a gem!

A two night stay

Rebecca is a superb hostess. Very warm welcome including a pack of tourist info leaflets. Extremely comfortable bed and a very wide choice for breakfast, which was first rate. Convenient location about 2 miles north of Wem and 6 miles south of Whitchurch. A good base for exploring Shropshire. No hesitation in recommending The Moorhead.

PERFECT FOR A SHROPSHIRE VISIT

Rebecca is the perfect host - warm, welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable about the local area. Made a great suggestion for where to eat each evening I was with her. The house is super and lovely gardens in which to wander, too. Super breakfast.

Throughout our recent visit, I found myself genuinely amazed by the outstanding hospitality extended by our host, Rebecca. From the moment we arrived until our departure, she exhibited a warm welcome, remarkable efficiency, and an unwavering commitment to making our stay exceptional. Her local knowledge was invaluable and she promptly addressed all our requests. Rebecca's pleasant nature and unwavering dedication to ensuring guest contentment truly enhanced our stay. The homemade breakfast was not only flawless but also delectable. I wholeheartedly recommend this charming bed and breakfast and would eagerly revisit should the opportunity arise.

A real gem of a B&B!

We only stayed for one night to break up a longer journey but we really enjoyed our brief stay. Beautiful countryside location with a few ponies and chickens on site (which the kids loved!). Very warm welcome, spotlessly clean and well presented throughout and an excellent breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

Rebecca, the owner, was there to greet us on arrival and was very warm and friendly. We only had a short time there, but everything felt very personalised and a real home from home. We have already booked to return with friends so that we can have all 3 rooms and have the lovely lounge to ourselves.

The Moorhead is a terrific little B&B. The rooms are a good size and comfy and breakfast is tasty and will satisfy any hunger. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for Rebecca if you find yourself needing anything - though usually she's thought of everything before you need it! Look forward to coming back!

The owner Rebecca was very friendly and welcoming and rang me the day before to check over finer details. I appreciated this. Lovely view from the bedroom of the extensive fields. And the added bonus of seeing the cows and Shetland ponies too! Very peaceful and secure location. Lovely breakfast too.

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful time here. The location was nice and quiet and set back about 500m from the road with their own long driveway. Rebecca is the host and nothing is too much trouble was very much the feeling. Cosy, comfy rooms and plenty of cows, Shetland ponies, chickens and cats that the kids could enjoy stroking. We felt very much at home.
