The Ellesmere Hotel sits in the heart of Shropshire's Lake District, in the Cheshire border town of Ellesmere. It offers a choice of Single, Twin, Double and Family rooms, all with en-suite shower, and guests have the use of the hotel's own car park. Downstairs there's a large public bar with real ales, a pool table, darts and a juke box, with regular entertainment and activities. The hotel has deep local roots, having played a part in the building of the Llangollen Canal, and today it's a lively meeting place for locals and visitors alike. Cafes and restaurants are just a few yards away, and the surrounding area offers plenty to explore, including museums and wildlife attractions a short drive from the hotel.
