The Baron at Bucknell

During a roundtrip through the Shropshire area, this was the B&B I had the highest expectations for, because of the beautiful pictures and the elevated prices. Unfortunately, they weren't completely met. The B&B itself is located in a really nice area with stunning views and a large parking lot. The welcome, however, wasn't all that friendly; we didn't really now were to go and once we did find the bell at the back of the building, the check-in procedure was very businesslike and didn't have the "family-run"-vibe at all. The room itself was nice, with a very modern and clean bathroom, our window looked partially out on the roof and partially on the street. I think only the most expensive room had the beautiful view on the hills behind the building. We also had dinner there; we ordered a small bottle of prosecco as an aperitive, but we're given a large bottle in stead, we asked it really clearly so I think the waitress did it intentionally We had wanted to try the beers from the tap but unfortunately didn't get to do that, because we had the entire bottle of prosecco to clean out. Food could have been better, both dinner and breakfast. I was glad we only had to stay one night, because I think I would have gotten really frustrated.

Faultless Comfortable room with new en-suite with good shower Really nice meals (we ate at Restaurant every night) Excellent breakfast Really friendly staff The option of fresh coffee on the hospitality tray in the room was really appreciated .

The place is lovely - great bedrooms beautifully decorated and very clean. The restaurant is first class and the breakfast was superb. Free on-site parking. Would definitely stay again if needing a room in that area.

This is the perfect place to relax and unwind. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by friendly welcoming staff. The bedrooms have everything you need and the food is superb. The pub is set in beautiful countryside with superb views. Can't recommend it enough. We will be back.

Thanks to all involved with serving us our fantastic meals cooked to perfection Friday evening we were a group of 5 and we feel that we had to leave you this review in appreciation We will definitely be returning soon Best wishes Jan and Mick

One night stay with a friend in twin room no. 4, which has a fab view looking out onto the pub garden and hillside from fully opening bedroom windows. The room was decorated to a high standard and was very comfortable with a large bathroom with shower/bath. Chocolate and shortbread biscuits were provided with tea and coffee. We arrived in the evening just in time for our dinner booking. Our mains and desserts were delicious. Staff were professional and friendly. (Literally I can only think of one tiny niggle and that was that some of the dining tables didn’t have much clearance underneath them so I was unable to cross my legs, my preferred seated position, whilst at dinner, which meant I was rather fidgety during my meal.)
