AA Rosette-winning restaurant with rooms in historic Ludlow
Dining & Distillery
The Clive Restaurant holds an AA Rosette and is listed in the Michelin Guide, serving seasonal menus built around ingredients from local farms. The on-site distillery offers tours and gin-crafting experiences for guests. The bar stocks ales from Shropshire brewer Hobsons alongside an extensive wine list, and a courtyard space is available for dining and socializing.

The hotel offers 17 rooms with individual designs, located in converted outbuildings adjacent to the main Georgian building. Each room includes a flat-screen TV, a desk, and tea and coffee facilities, with en-suite bathrooms that feature baths or walk-in showers and botanical toiletries.

It lies at the edge of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering direct access to cycling routes and walking trails. The town hosts the annual Ludlow Food Festival each September, and local markets sell crafts and regional produce.
