Church view farm
A lovely place to stay, our room was very cozy and clean and smelt lovely. The breakfast was very good. What you have to take into consideration is, it is a working farm so not everything is going to be squeaky clean. I enjoyed my time there, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

Camilla is a lovely host, very welcoming and pleasant to talk to. But guests should know that the farm house is directly (or very nearly directly) below the flight path for aircraft taking off or landing (I don't know which) to and from the nearby International airport - a mere two miles away. So from 5am in the morning, every 5 mins one hears the very close roar of aircraft above. The same applies late at night, but seems to stop at midnight. The flights aren't so frequent at night. Otherwise the farm is delightful. Th rooms are converted stables so a bit small, but perhaps this doesn't matter if staying only a night or two. Dinner is not served, but the breakfast, especially the full-English, is superb. There's no cover when going from one's room to the house for breakfast, so if it rains, make sure you've got your umbrella with you in your room !

Clean but unwelcoming
Room was clean but very cramped the shower only dribbled out so not possible to use effectively and towels incredibly small ( I am only a size 12 but it would not go anywhere near going round me). Plane noise directly overhead made sleeping disturbed. Was asked on arrival what time I would like breakfast as I had no idea at that point I said around 08.30, I arrived for breakfast at 8.50 was not greeted just sat at a laid table then given a jug of warm orange juice and milk from another used table asked if I required tea or coffee said I preferred fruit tea (had to supply my own as none available) was then presented with a plate over extremely overcooked bacon, a burnt dried sausage and a fried egg and told I was late and it had been cooked for 8.30. The toast was one round of what could only be described as warm bread it certainly was not toasted, there was no napkin, side plate or knife, other guests of which there were two were offered poached eggs and generally checked on and spoken with. I was just ignored throughout my stay I felt as though I was an imposition and most unwelcome. 0

Lovely English breakfast. 10 minutes drive to NEC. Great pubs locally recommended to eat in evening. Would definitely stay there again when exhibiting at NEC.

I didn’t spend as much time as I would have liked as I was busy at the NEC, but it was really cosy and I had a fabulous welcome. It is under the flight path and has working stables, but I loved it.

A unique farm house with still functioning stables and horses. In general the location is quiet and secluded. Unfortunately it is on the Birmingham Airport flight path, so there are noises from planes during the day, but it is not a problem at night. The location is close to the NEC Birmingham, and is relatively easy to get to by car (about 5 minutes drive), making this suitable for exhibitors or visitor of NEC.
