Excellent property. Spacious, family able to spread out and relax. Comfortable with ample seating and dining areas. Most rooms had ensuite facilities or access to a spacious family bathroom. Nice location on the outskirts of Alvechurch village, quiet, but well positioned for transport links. M42 a couple of miles away giving access to M5, M6, M40. Alvechurch Railway station within walking distance. House is at the end of a short private road near the Birmingham Worcester canal. Day boats available from nearby Alvechurch marina. Henry and Annabelle were excellent hosts, and left a lovely welcome pack. Highly recommend. Would definitely stay again.
