Darwin's Townhouse

In Shrewsbury's historic town centre, steps from the River Severn Path and the black‑and‑white Tudor quarter. This boutique bed & breakfast sits within a 10‑minute walk of St. Mary's Church, Old Market Hall and Shrewsbury Abbey, with Henry Tudor House and Attingham Park close by. Pet‑friendly and ideal for exploring the town’s quirky streets and riverside loop.

Set in a late 18th‑century Georgian townhouse fully refurbished in 2016, Darwin's Townhouse is a 20‑bedroom boutique B&B with a modern yet period feel. Expect garden views, an octagonal lounge with an ornate plaster ceiling, a bright conservatory where breakfast is served, and a snug honesty bar for relaxed evenings. Rooms feature flat‑screen TVs, private baths or showers, complimentary toiletries, hair dryers, coffee/tea makers and bottled water; daily housekeeping keeps things tidy.

Enjoy the garden and conservatory, unwind by the lounge fire or grab a drink from The Snug honesty bar. Family‑friendly touches include a library, playrooms and a karaoke area, while pet‑friendly policies mean your dog can join the trip. Practical perks include on‑site laundry and luggage storage.

Stay connected with complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout the property. Luggage storage and laundry facilities are available, and there’s a convenient long‑stay car park a short walk away for guests travelling by car.

Breakfast is a highlight — a full menu made with locally sourced ingredients and served in the conservatory. English breakfasts are served weekdays from 7:00–10:00 and weekends from 8:00–10:00 (fees may apply depending on booking). For more options, two sister restaurants are a short stroll away: The Loopy Shrew for classic English fare and Porterhouse SY1 for American‑influenced dishes with a local twist.
