The Bothy restaurant at Beaconsfield Holiday park in Shropshire

Couldn’t fault the meal or service. Food was lovely and we had two very attentive girls serving us. Pleased with our experience.

Beautiful views as i was entering The Croft Restaurant I would give 5 stars just for the views. About 3 weeks ago when we entered the croft we was greeted by a young lady who seemed kind at first appearance but once we sat down without asking us what we needed she then started talking what looked like the chef at the bar (unhygienic). She came back to us about 20 mins later asking if we're ready to order food without even asking if we wanted drinks. We then ordered our food as the lady gave our order to the chef who was still at the bar as they both entered through another door. I was delighted when our starters arrived. Looked and taste delicious we was please. Then our mains arrived and most of our mains had to be returned. Cold, burnt and my dad's tikka had no sauce. While we was letting the waiter know the chef came back to the bar as the lady returned our food and our food came back how it should of been in the first place perfect. All this time the chef was still at the bar so I'm unsure who maked our food but thank you. We didn't have desserts as we was all full so I couldn't comment. We was delighted with the outside but 50/50 with the inside. Would we return? Probably just not with that chef cooking.

We'd heard good things about The Croft. Walk in and there's large, interesting pictures on the wall, that grab your attention when we should be reading (lower down) to wait to be shown to a table. In an almost empty restaurant. We chose a table next to a window, with an outside view to one side and the staff in the bar on the other side. Looking at us. Five minutes later they still cast the occasional glance our way. I take a couple of menus back to the table and, as we choose, we still warrant only the occasional glance. At the bar: "is there something I need to know - about getting served?" I need to know that we wait to be shown to a table. (Well, we're here now . . .) Usual drinks, nothing special. We both ordered the fish and chips. The chips seemed to be heated up - could be wrong. Not too thrilled with the home-made tartare sauce, to be honest. At least the apple crumble and (lots of) custard were top-notch. The meal was not cheap, not expensive, nothing special (but it was only f&c :o) Our summary: the ambience (mid-afternoon) was laid-back and pleasant; the two young women (girls?) were friendly and capable enough but those first impressions took some shaking off. Would we go back again? With so many alternatives in the area? Unlikely.

Afternoon tea with friends. Not the best, bread on sandwiches was getting dry had obviously been prepared earlier but not covered. Was supposed to have mustard on side of ham sandwiches but that never arrived. Only had 3 slice of cake instead of the actual number in party. Very disappointing a shame because previous visits have been very good. Note to anyone booking afternoon tea a £10 deposit is taken and is non refundable in any circumstances. Customer service was not the best

Lunch for 3 responsible ladies in their seventies. Lovely meal and service was great. However, after eating, we asked if we could move to sit in the lounge area to round our meal off with our coffee to be told of course, no problem. We went over to sit in the window only to be reprimanded, in no uncertain terms, by one member of staff for turning one of the chairs so that we could all be included to enjoy our coffee and conversation. We were told we had moved the furniture and ignored the signage on the tables, which incidentally we had not noticed, asking customers not to do so!! We apologised explaining we had not noticed the sign and had only turned one chair round 45 degrees to be able to include our friend, only to be told “Well, this furniture has been damaged in the past by people moving the chairs! We tried to explain we had literally just turned the direction in which the chair was facing not physically moving it any distance, we were told “ Well, the chairs are not up to being moved and the legs had fallen off some of the chairs when people had tried to move them! We questioned that if that was the case then why the chairs were being used in the first place if they were likely to be damaged and could cause somebody an injury. We pointed out that if they were perhaps not fit for purpose perhaps they should be replaced, to be told that it was not only that but the carpets in the lounge area had cost over £800 and were constantly being damaged by customers moving the furniture! To say the least we were flabbergasted! Bearing in mind we were 3 ladies, all in our seventies and certainly could not have dragged furniture around willy nilly. A lovely meal, warm welcome, good and attentive table service spoilt by being made to feel we were vandalising the furniture and be possibly culpable of damaging a costly carpet !

Large party, so not all options available. Customer service was not great - couldn’t move chairs to enable group waiting for pre-booked meal to sit together. Asked to leave by staff, just after 10.15pm, although it was Friday night. We were a large party, who had spent at least £32 a head for 2 courses.

Had a table with colleagues for lunch. Food was delicious. Impeccable service with a smile Beautiful restaurant Definitely recommend

An impressive menu, delicious meal, incredible venue and friendly and efficient service. Would wholeheartedly recommend. Thank you.

Each time I have been to the Croft I have never been disappointed - great meal, fabulous place/location and lovely staff. What more could you want! Would always recommend 😊

First of all overall the food was excellent. Made Christmas Day very special. Staff were amazing. Nothing too much trouble.

Christmas Day meal. We have been out for Christmas Day dinner for over three decades. The Croft is far the best ever Christmas meal and atmosphere we have ever had over all the years we have been going out. It was so relaxed and not rushed. The staff service, nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was amazing. From the starter to the coffee at the end. Would recommend everyone to go and have a meal at the Croft anytime of the year. A fantastic Christmas meal and day We have already booked for next year. Would like to go for my mums birthday as well. More than five star. 10/10 for everything.

Came to the croft for Christmas day lunch ,the setting and the food was lovely ,the service was great ,well done to all the staff for a lovely day many thanks steve@ sue

A family member booked for 15 of us to celebrate an 80th birthday at The Croft. I had heard good things about it so was looking forward to it. BUT…although the food was ok, there are a few things which we were unhappy about. Firstly, they would not split the bill and allow us to pay in groups. Bearing in mind we paid for our drinks at the bar, it would not have been difficult as we all had the 2/3 course festive menu. This meant one person had to pay the entire bill and we had to send over money afterwards. When asked about this the owner said it was because they were charged for card payments - every other restaurant I have ever been to can do this so it’s just a nonsense. Secondly there was no children’s menu and although Children were charged half the set menu price, and as it was only 2 or 3 courses, you have to order a starter and a main (which is too much for children under the age of 10) or pay a dessert price for 1 scoop of ice cream which is a rip off. Thirdly the veg choice was very limited - soggy red cabbage, sprouts & carrots. They could definitely do with adding green beans/broccoli/peas and serving adults either more than 2 small roast potatoes. Lastly and most importantly, they charge £2.50 per head to serve, cut and allow you to eat a bday cake whilst there!! When I asked about this, I was curtly told that to allow people to bring their own cake would be like allowing people to bring a picnic! I think the fact 15 people have all had at least 2 courses and drinks should be enough to justify eating a bit of cake. She said “oh lots of places are doing that these days” but I have never experienced that anywhere else - ever! To sum up, the waitress service was good, atmosphere was nice (although they failed to seat our party on one table) but the food was average and the management attitude was poor. We won’t be returning.

All the times we have been to the Croft it never disappoints! A warm friendly relaxed atmosphere with lovely food! (100% check out the puddings too) The Sunday roast is top tier! highly recommend

Family lunch, all had different meals which were freshly homecooked which were all delicious. Friendly staff, especially front of house who greeted us with a smile and took care of our requirements. We love going for meals here. Salt and Pepper Squid was a divine starter!!

Six of us went for dinner recently and apart from the poached pear we voted it a success. When asked to suggest somewhere five of us could go for lunch on a wet Wednesday I suggested the Croft. The experience could not have been more different and difficult to replicate how bad it was. One of our party had to go and find menus, I had to find someone to take our food order, the crayfish and lemon butter sauce for the sea bass was with the pork, the honey glaze apple for the pork was on the sea bass, the red wine sauce for my duck failed to materialize and tomato and chilli - where was the chilli? - soup was going cold and the croutons had sunk into it and were disintegrating. Six of us are booked for the Christmas menu - here's hoping!

We took a trip back to Croft after many of months keeping away due to the experience of bad tasting food. We started off by walking into the restaurant thinking we would have had a nice greeting but instead we had Lucinda the ‘owner’ hiding behind the till on her phone making it clear she doesn’t like greeting people/facing her own customers. Whilst other members of staff were running round like headless chickens near enough running her business for her. We were finally seated after she made out that she didn’t see us and we were asked if we would like a drink to start. The only good thing to say was that there was a good range of drinks, as we got to the menu nothing took our fancy. We just had the basic, fish and chips. Which we could have had from a chip shop closer to home. The food was okay, a little crispy and also greasy, but nothing that put us off. The staff checked up on us making sure everything was okay, and to see if we would like anymore drinks which I think is excellent service. We went up to the bar to pay and there was no surprise to see Lucinda doing nothing. It’s a shame the staff do all the work whilst the owner stands behind the bar. Seeing how the place gets ran, we won’t be rushing back anytime soon

What a fabulous place !!!! We had a fantastic Sunday lunch yesterday food was amazing and service fantastic staff very attentive. Will definitely be back for sure !!!!! Thank you so much for a wonderful meal 😊 I would highly.recomend

Visited The Croft at Beaconsfield for the first and last time today. I can honestly say I have never had a worse main course. The site is apparently owned by the Poole family. Well, they should get their fingers out and replace whoever has been let loose in The Croft kitchen. Two of us had starters which were good but when my main course came it bore no resemblance to its description on the menu. The menu described it as Pan Roasted Cod Wrapped in Serrano Ham with French style peas with ham hock, sauteed potatoes, Champagne sauce. Everything on the plate was over-cooked. The Serrano Ham was burnt to a crisp and inedible (see photo). The cod inside the ham was cooked to a point of being dry-straw like, the French-style peas (green beans) were boiled to within an inch of their life and the Champagne sauce was an over-set bechamel gloop which I very much doubt had ever seen a bottle of Champagne let alone contained any. The ham hock was cubes of ham of the type you get in a packet from a cheap supermarket. Normally I would have told the waitress I was unhappy when she asked if everything is alright but she never bothered to ask. In fact we didn't see her again and had to go to the bar to pay only to find her folding napkins. More training perhaps the Poole family? We are local having moved to the area a year ago. We eat out frequently but I'm afraid you have had my one and only sixty quid guys. There are local pubs and restaurants working incredibly hard to produce high quality meals. The Poole family should try them and then try your own restaurant for comparison maybe!

We went for the first time yesterday after a recommendation by my nephew who lives in Hadnall. What a pleasant surprise ,we had not even booked ! Food was gorgeous and most important the staff were very attentive ,polite & helpful ,nothing was too much trouble. Beautiful tranquil surroundings .We will certainly be back again soon !

A lovely welcome on arrival. The Croft is very cozy, and a lovely atmosphere. Our waitress for the evening Anyia was absolutely brilliant, good fun, and always around to serve us. Food was amazing, and served prompt. Thank you to the team for great night, can't wait to come back.

Popped in after hearing such good things about the food and service at this place to be greeted by fed up looking staff that looked stressed. Got a very cold welcoming due to having no booking even though the place was empty. Despite the bad start, the food made up for it even though we had to ask several times for a dessert menu but we didn’t let that spoilt our visit.

A fantastic visit with great service, food & drinks 👍 As soon as we arrived we were greated, we asked to have a drink before dinner outside due to the nice weather and then came in for dinner later, the Duck I had & my...

Great lunch sat outside. Great service, staff very attentive and amazing food and drinks. Would recommend their chilli wrap so tasty.l and the pork belly bites wow. Never disappointed here and we live locally so a great location to visit often.

Myself and family had a beautiful Sunday lunch here, quick and very attentive staff. Food was delicious and lovely cocktails.

Prebooked Sunday lunch and ordered mains and sweets. Arrived early table was ready, looked a good start to. Family gathering went downhill from there. Long wait for main course that was served far from hot. No difference between Child portion and Adults . At no...

Father's Day Breakfast was a bit mediocre with items missing and underwhelming ingredients. We mentioned it to the waitress and missing items were brought out. They offered us a free drink as an apology but a family get together was spoilt a little. Especially in...

Me and my mum popped by for lunch, first of all the place is absolutely stunning. The staff are so friendly and the food was absolutely delicious, great value for price and will be returning.

Disappointed with Sunday lunch, roast potatoes hard and leathery on the outside and not much potato flesh on the inside, everything cool temperature, beef tough, have had much better in the past, not tempted to return

Lovely afternoon tea for Mother’s Day. It was gorgeous, had several cakes and they were all delicious. The sandwiches were lovely and had warm sausage rolls with dip. Will definitely go back for another one.

Good food in pleasant surroundings. Regular menu with a good variety of choices which is of consistent high standard.

Visited here last week for lunch with family. Some family members having travelled a very long way to see us all we were looking forward to spoiling them and showing off some great food at the Croft with it being highly recommended. Sadly, we were...

I had the pigs in blankets to start, they were tasty and plentiful but unfortunately that's the only course I enjoyed. I had the duck breast which when it came out honestly looked more like beef. It was completely brown, so overcooked, and extremely tough/chewy...

My husband and I went with friends for dinner. The presentation of food was very poor. Garnish was on all plates except mine. Chips were more like chunks of soggy potato. Onion rings cheap. Minimal custard on desert so very dry. Plus they had added...

Hidden Gem the Croft at beaconsfield lovely setting great food great atmosphere the prime beef was so tender and tasty and care taken in the food prep to make it look really nice

So, let's start with some positives; Pleasant setting, in a large, bright, airy restaurant (though a little lacking in atmosphere, especially once dark outside). Attentive service from the staff who were all lovely. Unfortunately it was the food that really let the place down on...

Came for lunch with friends. We love this restaurant. The food was excellent as always and the staff are very friendly but efficient. There is a lighter bites lunch menu which is great for those who don't want a large meal for mid-day.

Great food and fantastic service from the staff. Plenty of room aswell which is important when you have a wheelchair user in your party.

We visited the Croft for a family meal it’s a lovely location in rural shropshire just outside Shrewsbury the restaurant was very clean lovely atmosphere helpful staff and the food was so tasty we will be back without a doubt

I was surprised with a weekend away to Beaconsfield Holiday Park. The croft was an added bonus! They were fully booked for Mothering Sunday, but squeezed us in. We ate there Fri, Sat and Sunday and were blown away. The venue itself is stunning, minimal...

Treated a friend to afternoon tea and a glass of fizz. Attentive and efficient staff, very pleasant surroundings and super clean. Sandwiches, homemade sausage rolls, scones and a selection of cakes arrived quickly. My friend had phoned ahead to warn them she was allergic to...

Fantastic setting and staff were amazing. We have visited the Croft many times and always enjoyed the food and surroundings. now that Andy the chef has returned the food is even better.

A party of eight celebrated my husband's 80th birthday at The Croft. The weather was wintry but the welcome inside was warm and friendly, We enjoyed our meals and can't thank the attentive staff enough. Birthday boy thoroughly enjoyed his day.

Thanks Team Croft for our lovely meal on Thursday a journey of 120 miles round trip to have our meal to celebrate my wife’s 70th Birthday. We had a 3 course Lunch nicely prepared and presented and once again friendly staff looking actually Thanks Guys...

We had Sunday lunch, the food was cold, the roast potatoes were leathery on the outside, not much potato on the inside and tasted stale as if they had been reheated several times, lamb was tasty but disappointing overall because the food was cold

Although there was a power cut as we arrived the service and food were very good. There 48 of us and all received great service.

Lovely atmosphere,very good food,and helpful staff very impressed, good for for both families,couples

My first time here with family for Sunday lunch... Wow how lovely, beautiful food, excellent service. Very clean and easy access as i am disabled ... Excellent value cannot fault. Definitely will return.

The food was delicious and the whole menu tempting. Portions very generous indeed. Waiting staff were very attentive and friendly. The restaurant is surrounded by beautiful fields with prizewinning Suffolk sheep grazing in the fields.

What a hidden gem of a place. No under 12s after 6pm, people with dogs must eat outside. So calm and peaceful. Never, ever have our group of 4 had such a great meal for all 3 courses and coffees and we all agreed. NOTHING...

Never been before, recommendation from a friend. We had been wanting afternoon tea, but they don’t do this on Sundays. Had roast pork, which was lovely. As someone else has commented the roast potatoes weren’t the best. Everything else was great, especially the Yorkshire pudding....

We visited again last night and enjoyed yet another superb meal. This restaurant is a real gem and since opening last Autumn has proved to be a great addition to the Shropshire food scene. Can’t recommend highly enough.

The Wednesday steak night is great value. The steak was delicious and cooked perfectly. The young waiting staff are professional, friendly and helpful.

Food here is excellent and would highly recommend you visit. Very COVID aware. Plenty of room between tables and staff are excellent and mindful of social distancing and guidelines.

What a great place. Friendly professional staff, lovely location and facilities. Our Sunday Lunch was excellent in every way. Plenty of choice on the menu, prompt service, piping hot food (even the plates were piping hot which gets 5 stars from my other half). Food presentation was very good, it was not just plonked on the plate. Drink prices were a revelation for once, not rip off prices at all, compared with most other restaurants.All in all, a great Sunday Lunch, well done everyone, keep up the good work.P.S You don't need to be staying at the holiday park to eat here, anyone can, just make sure you book because you may not get in.

This is a new restaurant with an identity crisis. It is called the Croft and is in the village of Hadnall, but appears on the listings as The Bothy at Upper Battlefield and it may be in the Beaconsfield Holiday park, but you wouldn't know it when you are there. You sweep up a long farm drive and park outside a very modern barn type building and find a light and modern interior waiting for you inside. Lovely comfee setees and armchairs for those pre-drinks and then we were shown to our table by the waitress. There was only one other table used, so not busy, but we were made to feel at home and the menu was a good one, especially the game pie, on special. My advice to go while it is still new and fresh!
