Two night stay with breakfast

Brandon Lodge was excellent.Monique was very helpful & answered any questions we asked. The room was ideal, twin beds as requested, spotless & with everything that we needed. The breakfast was lovely & very tasty.The staff were also very good. My only concern is your booking system.It would be so much easier to be able to speak to someone on the telephone.

A Black and White treat

My first ever use of Buy A Gift. It was so easy. A Black Friday deal, a discount code and split 3 ways with Pay Pal. The best room ever. All that was missing was a date.

A very comfortable stay

We were given a room in the annexe next to The Malthouse, as we'd noticed they have a lot of live music. The room was perfect - comfortable and warm enough with a nice ensuite bathroom. Plenty of choice at breakfast in the main hotel, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. Ironbridge is a pretty town with river walks and plenty to explore. Many thanks for a relaxing break!
