Coach House Norbury

Bishops Castle

We have just returned from a lovely weekend at the Coach House. Service was excellent from the minute we got there. The food was amazing ranging from lovely cooked breakfasts (recommend the breakfast Hash) to superb evening meals (Ham Hock starter and Beef Rib main were both excellent) with the most unusual and tasty Apple Crumble. Bar was well stocked and was nice to be able to get a decent pint after our walk. Room was good with comfy bed and an excellent shower and it was so quiet. Good location in a lovely part of the world close to Bishops Castle and around 30 minutes from Shrewsbury. Was nice to be able to take our Labrador dog with us and not worry about offending people as we ate in a separate area. Can’t wait to return

A little gem in Shropshire 

We first visited in June this year for my partner's birthday - and were stunned by the incredible quality of the cooking and the wonderful front of house service provided by Ben and his excellent team, 
This time we went for my own big day - and although we made sure we didn't get too excited beforehand, just in case it didn't live up to last time. We needn't have worried on that front - it surpassed last time's experience even further! Young Harry's cooking really is a class above and encompasses flair, passion and great skill in equal measure. If cuisine was football - he'd be on a par with a young Lionel Messi!  
Thanks again to Ben and his lovely staff for looking after us so well during our (overnight) stay and thanks too to Harry for coming out after service and letting us slur our appreciation of the evening to him. Whilst we're happy on one hand to learn that this fine young man, after years of hard graft, is taking time out to go traveling and enjoy himself for a while, we're at the same time (selfishly on our part) quite sad that we won't be indulging in his sumptuous culinary skills any time soon :( 
We'd like to wish him all the very best in his new adventures and say that whoever takes over his post has a very very hard, nigh on impossible job of filling his supremely talented shoes.

Stunning Food! Second time around and still blown away

Third time we have stayed, room, service and food was excellent, since the last time we stayed Sean the owner has now employed Ben to run the bar and restaurant and he has certainly made a positive difference, like Sean he is very friendly and Ben is  very knowledgeable about food and wine.
Goes without saying we will be back

Excellent as usual

It is rare that I feel compelled to write a review on any platform; however, I am inspired to on this occasion, just in case you are passing The Coach House - I strongly recommend you give it a try.  We live locally and had not previously eaten at The Coach House, but friends recommended it, so we thought we would give it go - they were right, it is superb.  

We were made to feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived, and settled down to enjoy the elegantly simple Sunday Roast menu. Most of us had 3 courses and the food was all excellent - lovingly prepared, very fresh, unpretentious yet with touches of sophistication.  The starters and sweets were exceptional, with subtle elements of invention and taste combinations.  The mains were perfect, wholesome roasts with a delightfully presented combination of veg, all expertly cooked.

I think you can tell when food is prepared with a desire to achieve excellence, and that was the sense I got from all of the food. The whole experience was completely relaxed and felt rather special. I strongly recommend The Coach House - we will be back, soon.

Superb!

The Coach House is in the middle of nowhere - beautiful surroundings. Norbury is a tiny village which lies to the west of the Long Mynd. Excellent spot for walkers. We had a very nice & clean room with superking bed and ensuite. The staff were very helpful, particularly Ben. Unfortunately we were not able to stay for an evening meal as we were attending a function elsewhere - but heard they are well known locally for the restaurant.

Pleasant stay

We stayed here recently due to the proximity as we were attending a wedding locally . We were housed in an annexe room which was accessed from outside via a few steps I booked this accommodation months ago and was asked when I
phoned which room I’d like I had a choice I did not choose to sleep outside in the annexe of that I’m sure . The room was comfortable well equipped main problem was tepid shower which we reported on first morning  not only that on the next morning shower temp still tepid apparently it had been reported but obviously not fixed . Most unsatisfactory and unfortunately it has tarnished our experience at the Coach House

Disappointed

Rare night out so wanted to ensure a wonderful night out. Welcoming team but if last minute booking suggest ring to confirm booking. Faultless. Good food and summer menu with lovely wine. 
Back soon we hope for more. 

Dependably great

Myself and my family stayed at The Coach House as our over night accommodation for my brother’s nearby wedding reception. The staff were extremely friendly and warm with their welcoming. The hotel had that lovely old-worldly feel, with a beautiful church across the road (like something off of a biscuit tin). Furthermore, the staff were very attentive at breakfast and the cooked food was delicious, and the overall experience was far superior to most hotel/B&B breakfasts. Thanks for a great stay. 

Wedding

We stayed for one Saturday - 13th July 2019- night & had the most amazing three-course meal at The Coach House.
The food is really at another level. We eat out a lot & while I am not the foodie as such, I recognise really wonderful food when I taste it. 
Absolutely glorious & life affirming stuff. 
Add in a beautiful sense of being out of the loud city & in the most beautiful English countryside, on a warm summer's evening- & you have (for us anyhow) ..perfection.
 
*One small thing to keep in mind is that The Coach House is *not* a pub, or an Inn. It's a restaurant that keeps beautiful & stylish rooms. I think I/we forgot it's not a pub as we were on a rare night off from caring for our disabled young daughter & so we perhaps forgot that they are not running a pub & quaffing wine after 11ish, is a bit of a no-no. But that was down to us, not The Coach House. 
A wonderful experience that we will remember & I hope we will be back for another stay & to sample the 'autumnal' menu! 
Many Thanks to Ben, Clara & the team. You're all terrific!
