This was my second time staying with Chris and Phil, they’re always so welcoming and easy-going and treat you like royalty😄. And Izzy the dog is a sweetheart! Although in Sutton Coldfield, they are practically adjacent to a train station with direct connections to both Lichfield Garrick and Birmingham Alexandra.

“A home away from home” sounds like a cliche, but few digs have come closer to achieving it than this one. Supreme comfort in a spacious, immaculate house,, with some wonderful mod cons. (I think my favourite was the kitchen bin that you can open just by waving at it 😂.) My hosts could not have been more welcoming, nor more helpful. Beautiful parkland walks practically right outside the front door. Easy, 20 minute drive to Lichfield Garrick. Adorable pooch called Issie. In short: amazing digs!

Chris and Phil were so warm and welcoming! Absolutely stunning house, and a very cute dog. Perfect location for getting to the Garrick with a train station 2min walk away. I would highly recommend staying with them if you are looking for a place in the area.

Wonderful wonderful digs; an absolute home from home. I stayed here while working at Birmingham Hippodrome... and it was so easy to get the train into New Street, 2 minute walk to station and 20mins to centre of the City. Chris and Phil are the perfect hosts, and their home is beautiful and spacious. Wonderful shower too! Couldn't have asked for a more welcoming stay. Izzie the dog is well behaved, quiet and super cute! Thank you so much for the best chats and a perfect stay.
