Bridge at the Telford Hotel, Golf Resort and Spa

Join us for a relaxing staycation in the scenic Shropshire countryside. Located in an acclaimed region of natural beauty and overlooking the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ironbridge Gorge, the Telford Hotel, Golf Resort and Spa is the perfect venue to play Bridge, enjoy a few rounds of spectacular golf, and unwind for a few days.

The Hotel grounds overlook the Telford World Heritage Site and, in the right conditions, it is fun to see who can spot the famous Ironbridge deep in the gorge. If you stay at this hotel, a visit to Telford is a must. It is a charming town steeped in our industrial history and the bridge is surrounded by fascinating museums, restaurants and bars.

Ideal for Golfers

The Telford course is a championship layout and it is a very beautiful piece of English countryside. It is very playable and most enjoyable.

The 18-hole golf course is all about strategy, with just enough distance and water hazards to challenge a seasoned player, and the scenery to make it your new favourite. Overlooking the Severn Valley and Ironbridge Gorge, the views don’t get more spectacular than this. The tree-lined fairways and greens have been thoughtfully designed after the home of the US Masters course, Augusta, so that they are on a suspended water table system.

Why not add a golf package on your booking to take full advantage of this fantastic venue?

What to expect from this Bridge Holiday:
Make your own way to our hotel where, if numbers will allow, we will offer an ‘Early Bird’ afternoon session on the day of arrival.

At the start of your Bridge holiday you’ll be invited to join our Bridge director and host for a welcome meeting in the hotel. Any single travellers will have the opportunity to find a partner for the Bridge room.

Our Bridge programmes will vary according to the length of your break, and, in addition to playing Bridge, we try to include interesting Bridge seminars, hosted by your Bridge Director.

Your duplicate Bridge will be available every evening between 7.45pm and 11.15pm and we endeavour to vary these evening sessions, balancing between teams and pairs.

Bridge will also be offered most afternoons between 2.30pm and 4.45pm. These sessions are normally given over to open pairs/teams.

During your Bridge holiday nothing is obligatory and you can play in as many, or as few, Bridge sessions as you wish. We don’t forget you are on holiday and our Bridge programmes also allow time to relax and the opportunity for you to explore the surrounding area.
