The staff were all very welcoming, and we were all really impressed with the friendly, efficient service. The menu was full of English comfort foods...and they executed everything beautifully. Just look at my photos to get an idea...I tried the goats cheese and caramelised onion strudel, which came balanced on potatoes and perfect ratatouille. If you ever find yourself in this part of the country, it is definitely worth popping in here for some lunch! *Pro tip: It sounded like they get very booked up in the evening, so ring ahead to ensure you get a table!!

If you've been after the return of the great British pub with well cooked food - this is the place for you. All of the meat comes from local butcher, Martin Thomas of Pattingham and is cooked to perfection on site by the chef and owner, Caroline Haddon. The wines offer a nice selection of both new and old world and are easy to drink and good value for money. Highly recommended.

This place has been REVAMPED AND REOPENED this year, and become immediately popular…read more Brunning and Price have bought out the venue, the are the owners of one of my local favourites, the Fox at Chetwynd Aston, and The Woodbridge in Ironbridge- these places are freaking quality, gastro pubs, in pretty venues with generous outdoor seating. I had never been here before before it closed previously, but I can definitely see why it was a wedding venue. Little neat gardens, a sun trap of terrace seating over a pool filled with koi carp and ducks. Grab a print out menu, and walk up to the bar to order, waiters will do any running back and forth after this. I went for a quick lunch with my friends mum to discuss her upcoming nuptials, and it didn't disappoint, we sat in the baking sun, me with a good layer of factor 50 on, and plumped for sandwiches. It was lovely. We also decided on puddings, my ginger and rhubarb trifle was absolutely gorgeous. As with the other nearby places, expect a wicked gin list, good ales, a full, busy bar, but you want to come here to eat as well, it's not really a pub just for drinking, the tables fill up quickly and you will probably want to book ahead to make sure you get in there! Lovely staff, lovely food, good bar, get down and try it out.

As you may all know by now, I get married next year and I have been searching for the perfect place…read moreeverywhere. So after booking a place and then not hearing anything from them for months only for them to tell us they had booked another couple for their wedding instead, we thought it best to look elsewhere. Then we found the Oakley which is a gorgeous place located in a beautiful village and we fell in love with it. First the address: The Oakley Kiddemore Green Road Brewood Staffordshire ST19 9BQ We found the Oakley very easily considering it is in a lovely little village called Brewood which is apparently a winner of best kept village for quite a few years running. It is gorgeous and right in the country and so quiet you feel like you have gone on holiday although it is not too far away from my house. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the Oakley from a junction on the M6 so as you can imagine it is easy to get to and very accessible. The Oakley is set back with a fantastic car park which is huge. It is a gigantic white building that looks very welcoming which is always nice. When you walk in there is a massive fish tank filled with some lovely fish and the main reception. Now for weddings there are two rooms available which is great so I will let you know a little bit about them now. The smaller room is beautiful and quite huge which is nice and offers panoramic views over the gardens which are simply stunning. It has its own private little bar and is a short walk away from the bigger bar. It is massive anyway and can house around 100 people so more than big enough to accommodate my wedding party. I should mention at this point that both rooms can be used for other parties and private functions too so not only weddings. The larger room is fabulous and can house up to 200 people I should imagine. It has a spectacularly large dance floor if you fancy like having a lot of people who can dance at your wedding. This room can have a door that takes you straight out onto the terrace and into the fabulous gardens which is very nice indeed. Now the terrace area is fantastic with seats and also a large area for barbeques if you want them. The gardens are fabulous though and are set around a massive lake which is so picturesque. There is a small centre piece in the middle which is lovely and you can walk all around and across the couple of bridges they have there. The setting is beautiful and it does take your breath away because you walk into the place not even thinking there is this massive area of garden which is so gorgeous. They have rooms at the Oakley too so you can stay the night if needs be. Now if you want to just visit the Oakley for food they do serve Sunday lunch for about £15 per head and it was delicious. They had a good choice of roasts and they give you a lot of food which is always good to see. The staff are very pleasant and you can sit on a table looking out onto the gardens which is lovely on a Sunday afternoon. Hire of the rooms is at £1500 - 1700 which is very reasonable and accommodation is around the £60 per room mark and you get a breakfast with that. In conclusion I am going to tell you the Oakley is simply stunning and if you want a party, wedding or corporate do there it is worth visiting. If you fancy like a meal with some superb views then I recommend going to. Love it there!!!! Thanks for reading. xxx P.S. This has been posted on other sites but always by me katygriff

And dare I say, it was among the nicest of them and a great place to rest after an overnight flight from New York. I arrived here around 3:30 PM and was greeted in the lobby by one of the owners, who cheerfully showed me to my room and explained hotel policies. Room 9, while small, was perfect for my needs as a single traveler. The room was bright, the bed comfortable, and enough power outlets were provided for my things. The following morning, I woke up to an excellent English breakfast in the hotel pub. One of the other owners greeted me as I walked downstairs in the morning and took my breakfast order. A few minutes later, bacon, hash browns, toast, and tea were sitting in front of me, easily the best free hotel breakfast I have ever had. This even beat out the Embassy Suites breakfast. There aren't many times I've had a hotel room with better value than this. The Booking.com rate could have been paid with 15 British coins and many places would have charged at least 4 of those for a breakfast like was offered. If I'm back in the Telford area, I don't know why I would stay anywhere other than the White Horse.
