On a quiet street in the heart of Shrewsbury, this fine Georgian house has been in Lucy's family for generations. The dining room (oak panelling, a huge fireplace) is a lovely space to breakfast on locally sourced produce and homemade bread; vases of garden flowers are dotted all around this cheerful family home. Bedrooms are traditional and comfortable with pretty china tea cups; bathrooms are old-fashioned. The walled garden is fabulous; take tea in an 18th-century summerhouse. Birthplace of Darwin, this is a fascinating historic town; walk to the abbey, castle, theatre, festivals and great shops. Lucy is delightful.

Guest feedback
"Such a beautfiul house, full of character and charm. Very comfortable room with everything that one could think of provided and a very personal touch. Tea - and wonderful chocolate cake - were served on my arrival (inc). Breakfast was delicious and all food home-made including the fruit compote and bread ! Perfect position for getting into town centre. Lovely owners running a great B&B."

"A beautiful Georgian house within a stone's throw of the town centre - but unbelievably quiet! Lucy and Giles were very hospitable and the full English breakfast, with plenty of choices, was wonderful. The room was outstandingly equipped with everything you could want and the bed was very comfortable. Thank you Lucy and Giles - we hope to see you again!"

"We enjoyed a delightful four night stay with Lucy and Giles who are friendly, homely hosts. We were greated with tea and home made chocolate cake which we enjoyed in the summerhouse with roaring open fire. The breakfast was equally delicious! Hardwick House is a real find - a country retreat in the heart of Shrewsbury - ideal and highly recommended."

"Stayed for three nights in August, beautiful night's sleep, such that I asked Lucy about the bedding - Laura Ashley. Devine choc cake on arrival along with superb breakfasts, and right in the centre of town so you can enjoy a meal and walk back without the need to drive. Also the fresh milk for your tea - it is the little thinkgs which make a difference."
