We are absolutely thrilled to celebrate a remarkable local success: Goldstone Hall Hotel, nestled just outside Market Drayton in the stunning North Shropshire countryside, has been named Best Small Hotel in the West Midlands Tourism Awards 2025.
Family-owned and lovingly run, Goldstone Hall Hotel triumphed in the Small Serviced Accommodation Provider of the Year category—competing against hotels across the region, from Oswestry to Stratford-upon-Avon. This well-deserved win is a reflection of the hotel’s exceptional hospitality, elegant design, and its stunning five-acre RHS Partner Garden, which has captured the hearts of guests and judges alike.
This achievement is a testament to the dedication of the Cushing family, who have run Goldstone Hall for 40 years, and their commitment to excellence, local sourcing, and creating a truly welcoming experience for every guest. From beautifully appointed rooms and seasonal dishes made with homegrown ingredients to its thoughtfully landscaped garden, Goldstone is a true gem of the Drayton area.
We couldn’t be prouder to have such a shining example of hospitality and garden excellence on our doorstep. Congratulations to the whole team at Goldstone Hall Hotel—you’ve done Drayton proud!
