Really excellent stay in this hotel, would recommend if you are in this area of the country. Couldn’t do enough for us, excellent on site facilities.
On the Shropshire and Welsh border hills, this peaceful country house sits in delightful English countryside, and has held 2 AA Rosettes for food quality for over 10 years.

Extremely helpful and friendly hosts. Breakfast was delicious and we appreciated everything that was in the room - homemade brownies, a wide selection of teas/coffees and toiletries. The packed lunch was delicious and great value. We were walking the Offa's Dyke path so the pickup and dropoff was very handy. Really big room with a very comfortable bed. Would be happy to stay again.

Sebastian's is a hidden gem, we regularly stay in Oswestry but usually at the Premier Inn, I also used to live literally around the corner from Sebastian's and never knew it was a hotel, if we had known before we would have stayed there every time we were in Oswestry as the rooms are gorgeous, the setting also and if you are eating out next door you can't get a better location. The owners are extremely friendly, lovely people and we will definitely be staying again.
Boasting garden views, Willowdene shepherds hut features accommodation with a garden and a patio, around 45 km from Chester Racecourse.

Lovely location, amazing shepherds hut very clean and comfortable. Brilliant facilities and loved that there is a separate bathroom right next to the hut.

Family have just moved to the beautiful town of Oswestry. The people in the town who we engaged with, were all very friendly and helpful. We have a newborn baby with us and the Fox pub, which is a lovely local pub, saw said baby and immediately lit the fire to welcome her and keep her warm. That is the essence of the people in this town.

Oswestry is a lovely town.
Oswestry is a lovely town. It is an ideal place to stay to visit both Powys Castle and Chirk Castle over a two day period. We found everyone we spoke to very friendly and helpful. There is a nice range of shops and a good choice of restaurants, cafes and pub for food.

Lovely town, with lots of independent retailers and a really nice indoor market. There are the usual empty shops you get in most towns nowadays, some of them really beautiful buildings, so hopefully they will fill up again - or perhaps the local council could have an initiative with pop-up shops to make use of the space?
We were lucky to be staying at Sebastian's, in the town centre, which has free parking. It's annoying to have to pay for parking otherwise, which we've done on short visits before. Even blue badge holders have to pay, although get an extra hour 'free'. We live in West Oxfordshire and all public car parks in Witney, Chipping Norton and Burford are free.
Surrounding villages pretty* but no pubs open lunchtimes that we could find, mainly evenings only. Oswestry has plenty, and we enjoyed the open mic night at the Griffin, and the Bailey Head is brilliant with a huge choice of craft beers and real ales.
Lovely parks right in the centre, including a fully fenced dog park, free for users.
Really nice town, friendly people and would consider moving here.
*Watch out for some of the country roads - on leaving and en-route to Kelsall, attempting to avoid horrendous tailbacks on the main A-road, we strayed into Wales and found ourselves (thanks to sat-nav) on what could only be described as a track - no signage to indicate the road was out of use, and once we were committed, couldn't turn around so had to soldier on for a couple of miles through the worst 'road' I've ever driven on. Don't use Garmin TomTom app, stick with Waze!!

Oswestry is not a tourist town.
Oswestry is not a tourist town. We visited due to my family history research. Still a pleasant little town.
Old Oswestry hill fort just to the north of the centre was the highlight for me.
As in most UK towns, the ambience of the town is spoiled by a few selfish hoons deliberately making noise with cars and motorbikes.

Oswestry is an agricultural small town and as such is quite rare in England so a really great place to wander around. Interesting local shops and plenty of cafes and pubs but beware, after 15:00 there was no food to be had (on a Thursday)! Only coffee and cake! Large carparks which is a mixed blessing. Personally I thought that too much of the town was given over to asphalt and the parking was too cheap! Many would see this as a bonus!

Small town but several pubs and restaurants to chose from, many independent eateries and shops as well as the old favourite for some Wetherspoons, WHSmiths, Costa, B&M etc. lovely indoor market and outdoor stalls on our weekend visit. All close together so easy to cover. No cars allowed in shopping area so safe for pedestrians & families.
British Ironworks was closed on Sunday which was
a shame as planned to drop in. Lovely evening meals in townhouse Brassiere and Sebastian’s, excellent standard of service and decor.
The location was great - right in the town centre. The rooms are set off a central courtyard which in itself is a nice little oasis in the town centre. Room was lovely, nicely decorated and seemed very individual (not a standard chain hotel decor). Comfy bed, lovely bathroom with great shower/bath. Restaurant wasn't open the evening we were there and we didn't have time for breakfast in the morning so cannot comment on that but the room, location and incredibly friendly and helpful hosts were all top class.
Seemed to be no clear check in desk, and no-one around to help. Did not know what to do. Same with paying- were not asked to pay at checkin as expected. Did not end up paying till last day and WE had to do the asking.
No real problem - just a bit quirky, but then that was the what we liked about the hotel.
Large interesting grounds to wander in, but again no one to ask where I could and couldn't walk.
On request they provided a fan which was very handy as it was very warm during our stay.
The location was ideal.
Being a border town, it made it an ideal location to access the beautiful countryside.
We had a lovely stroll around Oswestry, admiring most of its history and buildings.
The apartment was large enough for us to have a get-together with our family. When we looked out onto the rear garden in the evening.......what a treat we had, as it was decorated with lights 😄 .
The security on the property was excellent.
Nice stay, clean, convenient, good host.
Just a few things could be added, there are no sockets on landing at all for a night light, hair dryer or to plug hoover in. No mirror in bedrooms to do make up or hair.
The mattresses in single bedroom were too comfy, thin, springy, I had gran daughter to stay over for a night so slept in single room with her.
Fabulous modern and stylish room with automatic skylights and a lovely bathroom. The owner is delightful and very kind and helpful. The rooms are all situated off a private courtyard (which is lovely) and lead to a private parking area. You should really opt for the breakfast add-on in their superb restaurant...it was fabulous!
Very centrally located, super clean and well kept apartment. Although they don't always, the owner happened to be outside as we arrived and was more than helpful in showing us in. I really liked that it is owned by the Italian restaurant above it, who will deliver their food to you with a 10% discount. That was a nice touch.
Exceptionally friendly, welcoming proprietors. The bedroom, and dining room were both beautifully furnished, with every imaginable accessory thought of, including a delicious welcoming slice of cake. Excellent, freshly cooked breakfast. If you have occasion to stay in Oswestry, Chilton House is a must.
The cottage was spotless, the hosts were lovely, the log burner was amazing and the location was great! There is a lovely walk into Chirk along the canal from outside the cottage! The location is ideal for exploring both Shropshire or Wales! Felt like a real home from home!
Very comfortable bed. Clean, in oswestry Town centre. I have no negatives, all good. I have an idea, I think the TV should be mounted on the inside bedroom door if your watching from the kitchen door open, want to watch in bed close door. thank you for a pleasant stay
The owner was very helpful and welcoming, even met us for frèe from train, the house is really beautiful, the room was extremally clean, well equipped, the bed very comfortable, the breakfast - rich, fresh and tasty. Ideal place to stay in Oswestry. Highly recommended!
Melissa and Rob welcomed us like family. The house is amazing. They have done and excellent job of restoration and used the finest quality fixtures, etc. Breakfast was exactly as we ordered. We especially enjoyed the fruit plate. An excellent place to stay!
I grew up in Oswestry and the Wynnstay was where my sister got married. It’s wonderful to stay there opposite my primary school and the parish church. I love Oswestry and the Wednesday epitomises everything about all the happy memories I have
Beautiful, well-equipped home, with everything we required. Calm and peaceful. Easy access to lots of attractions in Shropshire and across the border in Wales. We could not have asked for more, except maybe some slightly better weather!
Really helpful Staff, gorgeous location, peaceful and with an excellent breakfast. And the restaurant looked great - just wish we’d had time to sample dinner there. But the afternoon tea and supper was lovely.
Great location for exploring Shropshire and Wales. Hotel has great food and cocktails. Lovely outdoor seating and drinking areas around the hotel. The cottage has a fantastic dog friendly enclosed garden.
I received an extremely warm welcome asnd nothing was too much trouble. I absolutely loved their ethos and approach to running the B and B and only a 10 minute walk into Oswestry. Simply superb
