Clean spacious room and bathroom. Excellent communication prior to arrival. Safe w/ gated drive. Rural with views of farmland in every direction. Very friendly hostess, Rebecca. Excellent breakfast w/ fresh eggs from on site. Nearby pub for supper. Short drive to Hodnet Hall Gardens. Enjoyed interaction w/ the outdoor, very large cat!
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.
What a fantastic property. Rebecca was extremely friendly, helpful, altogether amazing. Beautiful room and view. Comfy bed, large bathroom, Nespresso machine, bottled water and jelly beans!
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!
Awesome country side B&B that is perfect for a comfortable stay in the English Midlands. Rebecca is amazing and extremely helpful! Highly recommend if you are planning to visit this area; but book early!
Very impressive place, service was amazing and the property has a lot to offer, the location itself is amazing as well as it’s quiet and calm, really felt like home
Really pleasant stay. We received a warm welcome on arrival and were made to feel at home straight away. The room was large and comfortable with an absolutely stunning view. We had the full English for breakfast which was really nice. Would strongly recommend!
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.
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.
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.
Absolutely stunning very peaceful and the countryside was breathtaking host was amazing and accommodating we thoroughly enjoyed our stay Thank you Rebecca 🤗
