'Basils' menu is a constantly changing selection of Shropshires finest produce, presented as savoury and sweet dishes.  You may choose as little or as many as you like, its up to you, and we will serve them to you in the order we think best.  For private functions we always offer a bespoke menu based on your preferences.

Dinner Testimonials...

Dear Mel and Martin - I would like to complain about last Friday…….. I just couldn’t fit anymore in!!  What a fantastic night.  Everyone was so impressed with the evening.  My colleague said it was like having a lovely meal in a friend’s house!  My thanks to Martin, the chef, and just to say the Brownie was really appreciated!  You two have managed that magic again, combining fine dining, ambiance and excellent service into an enchanting dining experience!

Many thanks again for making us feel a little special!

Jacquie Thomas-Clemson, Business Manager

Just a note to say thank you for a wonderful evening on Saturday.  Richards birthday was made very special.  Church Farm Guest House is such a perfect setting for such occasions and your personal service is so much appreciated - especially by me - all the enjoyment and none of the hard work!  Martins choice of menu was perfect, much enjoyed by all and especially the added treat for my son!  Our guests spending the night there were really impressed. Looking forward to the next time. Thanks again to you and all your family. Richard & Tess Smitherman & Co.  October 2009

Great hosts... Cracking food... we'll be back only this time with the golf clubs ! (?)  Thanks for a fabulous weekend.  Sue & Gus Mansfield. Bristol. September 2009

This is an excellent B&B, one of the best we have stayed at on our John O'Groats to Lands End journey!  The suberb 4 course evening meal was of the highest standard, but we still managed a huge breakfast and all in beautiful surroundings.  More like a country house hotel than a B&B. Would be great for a family gathering or walking week with friends... Peter & Jane Harris. June 2010 www.macjogle.co.uk

A warm welcome with a pot of tea on the patio after a long hot day was just what we needed!  Lovely comfortable well equipped room. Dinner was superb, especially the beef wellington & we appreciated being able to bring our own wine.  After a restful night, breakfast didn't disappoint - the yoghurt with granola & eggs benedict were fabulous.  Wish we were staying longer!  Barry & Janet Sharp May 2010
