Tris C left this review about Charlton Arms Hotel

A return the other night to what is a restaurant with modern interior rather than traditional pub, albeit one with a lovely view over the Teme.
The car park has to be one of the most chaotic ever devised, with at peak times absolutely no space to manoeuvre and customers who think it’s acceptable to park their car in such a manner that your departure cannot be guaranteed.
The staff are lovely, the food’s decent – at a price – but there are better ‘real’ pubs in the town centre – though Ludlow is hardly a hotbed of quality hostelries – but if you’re thinking of driving with a Friday or Saturday night visit planned, park in the town centre where it’s free after 18.00.

UPDATE: A fantastic return. As it more or less was before, with an excellent Hobsons Bitter on the terrace overlooking the river. A must do.
*************************************************************************
[July 2014] A detached riverside hotel, restaurant and pub, with patio area. It is mainly in undressed stone, but has a coach entrance above which is in timber and yellow daub. It also has a nice oriel window, The interior is generally open plan and most is given over to dining, not surprising as it is ran by a restaurateur. There is a small bar area just off to the left on entry, isolated by a hearth feature from further dining tables. It is in coffee and wood, has bench seats and a wood floor, as well as lots of fish jugs! There is no TV and the music was soft and general. The service was friendly and the clientele consisted of a few locals in the bar area and diners everywhere else. Beer; usual taps with Hobson's Bitter, Ludlow Stairway, Gold and Wye Valley Butty Bach. The Gold was fine. A nice visit, just a little to restauranty for my taste.

A very smart hotel right on the river at the lower end of Ludlow. Several adjoining rooms, most with great views of the river below and the incumbant wildlife. Very friendly and chatty staff and a good selection of 3 local ales. We tried two of them and they were very well kept. We were staying at The Cliffe at Dinham, which was very good, but I think next time we'd stay here.
