The Crown Country Inn
We were greeted by very friendly hosts who showed us to our room and explained all we needed to know about our room, breakfast and our evening meals. The choice of food for our evening meal was first class and tasted great and served in front of a nice warm fire. A gourmet's delight near Ludlow, Chef-patron Richard Arnold has previously earned Michelin Awards and is a "Masterchef of Great Britain".

Accommodation at the Crown Country Inn consists of three bedrooms situated in an old Georgian stable block set to the back of the main building.
Services
Set in an "area of outstanding natural beauty", located within easy travelling distance of many interesting towns including the small historic town of Much Wenlock (the birthplace of the modern Olympic Games), Craven Arms (ideally positioned for walking and cycling) and the bustling market towns of Ludlow, Bridgnorth and Shrewsbury.
Below are our current vacancies; for any further information please contact us on 01584 841205 or send you CV to [email protected] outlining which position you are interested in. Applications are now being invited for this position. We are looking for an enthusiastic and hard working Chef to work as part of our team in our 4 AA Rosette Country Inn.
The Corvedale Restaurant, located on the first floor with its magnificent open fireplace, was the local courtroom in the 17th Century, sometimes presided by the infamous Judge Jefferies. Now it hosts a warm and friendly atmosphere to dine in on a Friday and Saturday evening and a Sunday lunchtime. The Crown's Bay Restaurant is also a perfect place to dine, with its large bay window allowing you to enjoy the bright summer evenings to the full.
The Crown Country Inn is available to hold private parties, if you have a birthday, anniversary, christening, wedding or just a family gathering. We can accommodate your party in any area. Whether it is for a smaller party of 10 or 16 in the Bay Dining Restaurant, a buffet, or even a party for up to 40 in our Corvedale Restaurant.
We are the only pub in Shropshire to be featured in the GastroPub Cookbook by Diana Henry, who called the Crown "a shrine to local food producers and farmers." We are also featured in the Real Ale Pub Guide, the Michelin Eating Out in Pubs Guide, the AA Pub Guide, the AA Bed and Breakfast Guide and Which Good Food Guide.

Lunch here on a cold November day perhaps the place could have been warmer but never the less the food was very good a good choice and well presented one other slight criticism service a bit on the slow side but overall very pleasant.

Food was fair, the place over all had a nice feel, but the wait was unacceptable. 1h 20 minutes for the main. After dinner a further 30 minutes for the bill after we asked for it. No apology or explanation. I hope this was an off day?
