Had a lovely night at The Fox Much Wenlock. Not the best room we’ve stayed in but it was really clean , nice comfortable bed and nice big fluffy towels. The food was excellent and freshly cooked and nothing was too much trouble . Worth a visit just to meet the owner and her lovely daughter who made us feel very welcome. We also found the village welcoming and interesting and a good base to visit other places.

Large room but a bit bland, a table would have been nice.
and a light above the tea/coffee area would have been useful. Food good, I had pie which was very tasty! Love the area, people very friendly!

A very warm welcome
We've just stayed for a short break and can't recommend it too highly.
A very warm welcome which continued throughout our stay, nothing was too much trouble.
There is a good varied breakfast menu and the evening meals were delicious and very reasonably priced.
We will be returning!
