Hundred House Hotel

The Hundred House is a charming, family run hotel at Norton, Telford, situated in rolling countryside close to Shropshire's beautiful Severn Valley, just ten minutes drive from Ironbridge Gorge and its many museums. Throughout, it has drying herbs and flowers grown in the Inn's own garden hanging from the oak beams. Guests are welcome to browse the garden at their leisure and enjoy the variety of unusual sculptures, statues, archways, roses, trees, herbaceous plants and the large working herb garden with over 100 varieties of herbs, providing seasonal supplies to the kitchen. The distinctive bar and restaurant features mellow brick and stained glass with Jacobean wood paneling and cosy open log fires. The hotel has 9 individually decorated bedrooms, most with 4 poster or half tester beds and chandeliers. The bedrooms contain exquisite, hand-picked antique furniture and en suite bathrooms refurbished in 2011, featuring Victoria & Albert baths and rain showers. Many also have the famous Hundred House swing hanging from the oak beams - you won't forget your stay here in a hurry and is ideal for those who like to 'escape the norm'! This quirky decor helped the Hundred House to win a coveted Cesar award for 'utterly enjoyable mild eccentricity'. The Hotel is owned and run by the Phillips family; Head Chef, Stuart, has held two AA Rosettes for 16 years and earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand for his imaginative cuisine. The Hundred House has a fantastic reputation for excellent food and friendly service, making it favourite destination for many local people.
