A Wonderful Stay at the Lowfield Inn – A Hidden Gem on the English-Welsh Border We had a fantastic stay at the Lowfield Inn and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Our family room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, with plenty of room to relax, including a sofa. The bed was especially comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep in a quiet and peaceful setting. The inn features a lovely common area and a roof terrace with a beautiful view of the surrounding countryside. The scenery is stunning and perfect for enjoying long walks along the border between England and Wales. The pub itself is a true highlight—offering a great selection of traditional cask ales and a very welcoming beer garden where you can enjoy the evening sun. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the staff are genuinely helpful and accommodating. We particularly appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as pencils and paper provided for children. As for the food: it was excellent and exceeded our expectations. The menu offers a wonderful mix of traditional English pub fare and Indian dishes, all prepared with creativity and care. The starters were delicious, the mains were generous and satisfying, and the desserts were absolutely indulgent. The children’s menu was also well thought out and very appealing. Breakfast was equally impressive, with a wide selection and very generous portions—no one left hungry! There’s also plenty of parking space, which made everything even easier. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely return the next time we’re in the area.

I only booked for one night to break our journey to North Wales from London, so my expectations were not that high, I just wanted a bed for the night. The location was within walking distance from Shrewsbury station, down a small alley off the main shopping street. I didn't realise it would get quite noisy, and there was actually a band playing in the pub the night of our stay - our room was directly above it! So we went to bed late! For some this could've been a disaster, but saw the funny side and at least the band were playing songs I liked, and I travelled with ear plugs so did manage to get to sleep. The room was well equipped, comfortable & clean besides this. I had booked breakfast but due to not realising what time it would start from and having to be on an early train, actually couldn't stay for it. To compensate the lady who checked us in kindly offered to make us lunch instead, so we had some sandwiches, nuts, crisps and snacks from the bar to take with us, which I appreciated, as I was travelling with my young son.

This is a lovely place, we stayed in the ‘cottage’ which was more like an annexe building and it had two rooms of which we occupied one. The room was good, we enjoyed breakfast in the dining room and the breakfast menu had a lot of choice too which was great. There were options for a full English style breakfast, but also options for cereals and fruits etc. We decided to try dinner at the hotel one evening and we were extremely happy with our choice. The food was excellent quality and very enjoyable. The hotel is a short walk into the centre, very close to the castle which is worth a visit and you can see the castle from the road you walk on from the hotel to the city.

We read the reviews and knew it was above a lively pub, and while there was noise as we were checked in Steve and Louis let us know they’d do their best to have the noise level lower by around 11pm, and they did. The pub and restaurant look lovely but we didn’t try this time around because we had previous plans and reservations. Interested to try next time. The room was lovely, quaint and historic, the bathroom was spacious and clean. We would definitely recommend (please know there’s loud noise possible but it dies out later so it was perfect for us ) and we would definitely stay again! Absolutely stellar service!

No choice of cooked breakfast , no room service on first day and had to ask for clean towels, no shower gel- shampoo as advertised, dangerous exit on to highway - needs mirrors, faulty light switch for bathroom which was replaced after 2 days

What a lovely find this was. Really lovely room, right in the middle of town and our host Donna couldn't have been more helpful. We would really recommend staying here if you're visiting the local area. We'll definitely be back.

Excellent stay. Made to feel very welcome. Enjoyed the picnic basket breakfasts and dinner the restaurant. I will definitely stay here again!

Lovely stay and meal, my only issue was the amount of flies present in the bar and dining room!

The whole stay was wonderful, staff were so friendly. The room was lovely as was the breakfast.
