Living with Host
You have a room with a king size bed with an amazingly comfortable vi-spring mattress. There is a tv and kettle in the room although you are most welcome to use our kitchen.
The room is warm and cozy and the bathroom has both shower and bath.
Guest Parking
There is parking but it is on-street parking so you may not be able to park right by our house.
The Area and Transport
We are a 15 minutes walk from the theatre and 15 minutes from town. We have a local shop and pub very close by. There are many shops and restaurants within a 15 minute walk. There is a pay-as-you go gym within walking distance and there is also a swimming pool.
Please note we do not have a microwave (but we do have electricity and running water so not completely in the dark ages)

Heather and Jeremy are welcoming, kind hosts who took excellent care of me when I fell ill for the last few days of my stay. The room is big and peaceful with a very comfy bed. The bathroom is right next door and has everything you need. Lovely big window for lots of natural light with a blackout blind. 15 min walk to Theatre Severn. Definitely recommend!

It was a pleasure to host you
Heather and Jeremy made me feel so welcome in their home. The bed was really comfy, and the room had everything I needed! Would really recommend for a stay in Shrewsbury. Easy walk to the theatre and town centre. Thank you so much!

It was a pleasure to host you
Although I was I only stayed with Heather and Jeremy for a few nights, I couldn't recommend them enough. They were so incredibly welcoming as soon as I arrived and made me feel right at home. The house is beautiful, and the room itself is great, with lovely bright windows, and one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. The commute to the theatre is only a short walk down the main road, and parking just round the corner from the front of the house. Can't recommend enough for Shrewsbury!

Heather and Jeremy are, quite simply, the best hosts I have ever encountered. They just get it; warm, welcoming & understanding of when needing to switch off and recharge. Everything was spotless, Heather left out teas and treats for me, the theatre is a lovely 15 minute walk away and the bed is so comfy. The bathroom is for your own use so it really is a gorgeous homely hideaway. I hope I return to Theatre Seven again and stay! Thank you both.
