Sure, all the floorboards creak, it’s well worn round the edges and there’s no air conditioning, but they’ve got all the important stuff right and it’s got bags of charm and history.

- We (my husband Scott & I) just spent a week in England and the weekend in Shrewsbury, a beautiful old town full of a lot of history. We stayed at The Lion Hotel Shrewsbury and have good and bad feelings about the place. The hotel itself needs a major refurbishment as it’s clearly neglected by whoe
