Clare: Business Owner
I first had the idea for Monkhouse Granary in 2003. The doors opened in 2004, after a ‘makeover’ of what was the garage, log-shed and a general storage room – once a Granary and Coach house. We have many regular guests, who have been visiting us since we first started the business. We keep welcoming new people who have just discovered us, from all over the UK. Jo will look after your every need but I am always here to make sure that every guest is happy with their experience at Monkhouse Granary.
Jo: Events and administrative executive
Jo joined Monkhouse Granary in September 2025 and has over 25 years of PA and Admin experience.
She is local to the area and helps Monkhouse Granary with their bookings and email enquiries.
She enjoys running, yoga and road biking through the Shropshire countryside.
She is super organised and will answer any enquiries you may have!
“Today we have evolved, still providing what we set out to when we opened in 2004, enabling guests to make themselves truly at home and to feel relaxed in our unique off-site environment”
