About the home

Toad Hall is a substantial luxury stone property with 6 en-suite bedrooms on Eaton Manor Country Estate. It is set in its own grounds with a large private garden and lawns stretching out towards the Wenlock Edge.

Eaton Manor Country Estate offers the perfect rural retreat set in 500 acres of beautiful countryside and, as an award winner in the 2012 national tourism awards for best self catering, we are sure you will enjoy every minute here and have a truly memorable stay.

Toad Hall has been completely renovated by skilled master-craftsmen, using the best traditional techniques and has been graded as Four Star Gold. Features include brick and timber feature walls, a solid oak staircase and extensive use of traditional oak floors and doors throughout.

Toad Hall is a truly beautiful house in a stunning location and can seat up to 28 for dinner.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
Toad Hall is a property full of character and below are a few highlights:
- Oak doors, floors & skirting with all the conveniences of modern living including:
- Widescreen digital TV
- Wi-Fi
- All of the beds have the option of being doubles or twins. The maximum number of single beds is 14 but if you are looking for mainly double rooms the maximum number is 6 with just 2 single beds.

Accommodation:
The Bedrooms: There are six bedrooms which are all en-suite. They are all beautifully appointed with co-ordinated fabrics and oak doors, floors and skirting.

The beds are all 6 ft doubles or 3ft twins, with the flexibility to have either doubles or twins in any room to accommodate your group in the most comfortable layout. Two of the bedrooms have an additional bed to you accommodate larger groups.

The Bathrooms: In addition to the 6 en suite bathrooms (five with showers and one with a bath), there are additional separate shower and toilet facilities on the ground floor to avoid anyone having to wait – we have tried to think of everything.

Dining Room/ Sitting Room: This grand room, with its traditional oak floors, is very large at over 55 square metres or 600 square feet. This is a fantastic family room but can also be used for larger diners or meetings. A large solid wood dining table looks out onto your own private enclosed courtyard which is beautifully lit in the evenings. The easy chairs and sofas look out over the secluded patio and the private garden beyond, leading to fields and trees and sometimes early in the morning deer appearing out of the wood.

Toad Hall is the ideal venue for that special dinner and can accommodate very large groups of up to 28 people for dinner.

Kitchen: This is a fully equipped, modern fitted kitchen. It has a large electric range cooker, dishwasher, large fridge, a separate freezer and a washer / dryer. It has everything you need to help prepare that special meal.

Further details outdoors:
Garden: The large garden is totally private and has a patio and BBQ area, complete with patio furniture, for al fresco dining. The garden is enclosed and is an ideal place for children to explore and play games.

Parking: Toad Hall has secure private parking for up to 10 cars, with additional parking available if required.

“Perfect - "Above and beyond the call of duty"” We arrived in the depths of the March 2013 winter - one of the party got stuck on the road in the snow. Eaton Manor's Nichola and her dad organised both co-ordination with the services AND dad actually did the pick up for the two stranded members of the party. We're talking 3:00AM in the morning - unbelievable support! Not to mention picking up another family member from the station AND collecting the shopping. Gold medals all round here! Fantastic accommodation (en-suites all rooms), very comfortable and spacious. Do treat yourself to catering for at least one night - excellent meal and service, a real treat (and we had a couple of chefs with us who couldn't fault it). I can't think of a group of people this wouldn't suite. The most welcoming and helpful place I've ever been to. We'll be back! Nigel Johnson Response: Thank you for your kind words - it was our pleasure to be able to help your group out, especially given the extreme weather conditions! We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back to Eaton Manor in the future.

“Fabulous!” Enjoyed a fantastic girls weekend at Toad Hall. Would recommend it all - personal chef, cottage dinners, champagne tasting and clay pigeon shooting!! A great time was had by all. Will definitely be back again. Response: It's great that you enjoyed your stay at Toad Hall for your girls' weekend. We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back to Eaton Manor in the future.

“Perfect Christmas” We had a fabulous week in Toad Hall. The accommodation and location were perfect for our extended family Christmas. The house was warm and comfortable, especially practical with all six ensuite bedrooms and large living/diing area. The local area, although not easily accessible as some roads were flooded, had everything we needed including the local church right next door. If only it had snowed! Response: We are so pleased that you enjoyed your family Christmas at Eaton Manor and we look forward to hopefully welcoming you back in the future.

“Wonderful place, very fond memories.” I was looking for somewhere special for my thirtieth birthday celebration with a group of my closest friends. Toad Hall was a wonderful place to go. The rooms were of a very nice, the beds very comfy and the bathroom facilities top notch. The kitchen was great. Had all the things you'd need - even down to spices and other essentials that you're bound to forget. The cooker was great to cook for the fourteen people I had there. The lounge was comfortable and the dining area spacious. We were greeted with a couple of bottles of wine and a wonderful home cooked cake. The location is perfect with some lovely areas to walk and explore. The fact thy I write this review 8 months after visiting and I can still recall the excellent setup is indicative of how very pleased I was with the weekend - with many of my friends saying they'd consider a location like this for their own celebration. Thanks for making my milestone birthday such a memorable one! See you for my fortieth??!! Ben Response: Thank you for your very kind comments. We are delighted that you had such a memorable and enjoyable stay at Toad Hall to celebrate your 30th birthday. We'd love to welcome you back to celebrate your 40th!

“fantastic, really made my weekend.” we stayed in Toad Hall which was arranged for my Hen weekend. as soon as we got there we were noticed the welcome hamper which had a homemade cake, and two bottles of wine (which were lovely) and a personalised letter which gave us helpful info. Everything was there what we needed, the bedrooms were lovely and every bedroom had an ensuite which was very handy when sharing with 13 other girls. the garden was lovely and had a huge table outdside which we all decided to sit at on the summer evening. we walked to the local pub which was only about 2 miles away but was lovely walk as the sun was shining. highly recommend Toad Hall and would definiately stay again and so would all my friends and family that stayed there. Response: We're so pleased you enjoyed your hen weekend staying in Toad Hall and we look forward to welcoming you back to Eaton Manor in the future.

“Lovely weekend in Shropshire” Fantastic house, superb large beds in ensuite rooms and living space just right for large group. Beautiful garden and patio area. Plenty of seating inside and outside for everyone. All basics supplied. On the Saturday night the local chef cooked for us - locally sourced food was superb. Beautiful location, great walks direct from property and games hall located on property. Swimming pool a bit small for adult swimming.

“Superb” It was even better than we expected, very comfortable as well as being relaxed. Atmosphere very good with everything we could want available

“Warm, stylish, comfortable, bright and immaculately clean, a perfect base in a beautiful farm estate” A bright and practical newly fitted-out self-catering base set in an incredibly well - maintained farm estate with delightful gardens, walks, rolling hills and wonderful views. Spacious open dining/living area; attractive but smallish bedrooms with comfortable beds, good furnishings and generous towels and linen. Bathrooms and whole house spotlessly clean. Not much space in hall for dirty walking boots and to hang wet coats etc?
