| Welcome Springhill Bed and Breakfast is a distinctive and spacious Grade II listed three-storey property of character offering quality Shropshire accommodation close to Ironbridge (1 mile) and Telford.
The house is set well back from the road in a fine elevated private position while enjoying sweeping views over the village of Coalbrookdale.
Situated in the heart of the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site, Coalbrookdale is home to the Museum of Iron, the historic Darby Furnace, Enginuity and the Museum of Steel Sculpture.
Located adjacent to the Museum of Iron are the Darby Houses, homes to Abraham Darby and many generations of his family.
Springhill was constructed around 1740 forming part of a larger detached house owned by the Ford family with Richard Ford marrying Mary Darby, daughter of Abraham Darby.
A number of historic woodland walks are found within Coalbrookdale, one of which leads to the Rotunda, from where one can see breathtaking views of Ironbridge and the surrounding gorge.
Twenty minutes walk from Springhill is the town of Ironbridge, which is steeped in history, but also comes to life at night with its varied collection of pubs and restaurants.
Two minutes walk from Springhill is the award-winning Coalbrookdale Inn and The Grove Inn with its associated restaurant The Fat Frog.
The Telford International Centre and the town's commercial area are within a 10 minute drive from Springhill.
