VENUE HIRE - SOLE OCCUPANCY & SMALL GROUPS
With a range of accommodation options, including small cottages, glamping, camping and large residential centres, we offer sole occupancy in beautiful locations. Our comfortable accommodation provides a simple base for families and friends - and when the time is right, small functions and groups - to finally spend some quality time together.
Stay in a beautiful location and have the place to yourselves; enjoy and share your own special space, and let us help you to get the most from it.
The mountains, lakes, beaches and castles of Snowdonia; the Wyre Forest, Bewdley, safari park and Severn Valley with its canoeing and railway; rural Shropshire with the Ironbridge gorge and museums, Shropshire hills, cycling walking and golf; or the beautiful setting of Ingestre Hall and estate near Stafford; which would be your choice?
All venues offer sole occupancy for your stay.
A choice of small cottages, glamping, camping, residential centres and even a mansion!
Self-catered, with use of our professional kitchens.
Book with confidence - we are owned and managed by Sandwell Council; if your visit cannot go ahead because of COVID-19, you can amend your visit or get a full refund.
