I loved my stay with Judith and Colin - I had the attic room which was spacious, airy and very comfortable. If you want peace and quiet or fancy a chat these home away from home parents are very understanding to your needs. It can get toasty or cool in the room with two big windows and quick to heat radiators and the bed is great. If you have a car the distance to rep is 10 mins with free parking around. I am actively looking for more work in Brum so I can stay here again! 10/10

Omar was great - intetesting and entettsining yet tespecting our space. Most highly recommend. Thank you Omar, were still missing you
Lovely place to stay in Birmingham. Was working at the Hippodrome, a decent 30 minute bus ride but definitely worth it for the price and amenities you get. Free parking, en suite shower and all essential kitchenette equipment. Thanks for the lovely stay.

Thanks Gorgia you were a pleasure xx
I stayed with Judith and Colin for 3 (three!) months. Suffice to say, I would absolutely stay with them again. Lovely lovely people, and I had a nice big attic room with everything I needed (en-suite, fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle, TV etc) plus a weekly cleaner.
I was at The Rep Theatre and there are two different bus route options nearby, so in case of diversions there’s always an alternative. Taxis are usually cheap too.
Top marks from me - next time I’m in Brum I’ll be in touch!

Thanks Cameron - look forward to seeing you again - sometime xxx
100% enthralled with this wonderful house and perfect stay. Judith and Colin are the perfect hosts, kind and attentive. I could not have asked for more. The house and room were comfier, cosier and so much more spacious than I ever could have expected. I truly enjoyed the bed so much, so comfy, I would come back just to stay in the bed. 100%. Thank you so much to Judith and Colin. A home away from home.

Looking forward to seeing you again xxx
I had a wonderful stay with Judith. Warm and loving home. Great room with fridge, kettle, microwave and utensils, and access to the kitchen to use the oven. Had both the privacy to keep to myself when needed while also feeling welcome to say hello to Judith and her family. Great location - regular 20 minute bus into town with a nearby park and shops within walking distance. Would highly recommend.

Thank Mowenna - and you are always welcome xx
Judith and her partner were very pleasant, the room was cosy and warm. There was adequate space to park and bus routes direct to the city centre at the end of the street.

Thanq Joseph glad you enjoyed your week here and in Birmingham. All the best xx
Judith was very welcoming and helped me get settled into the room, which is really more of a self-contained flat. I couldn't have asked for a better sanctuary after busy days, everything you need was provided - fridge, even chopping board, tupperware etc-- so I could just come in and prepare anything I needed. The bathroom was quite spacious and again had everything you might need. The privacy was fantastic, very quiet at night and easy to sleep, and overall very comfortable. Thank you!

You were the perfect guest Emily I'm so glad you enjoyed the room. All the best till next time(:
I booked this room for a fellow company member and they said - 'When I first arrived, the room and bathroom were very clean, and I really appreciated having some cooking amenities in my room. The area was relatively calm and quiet, and I felt very welcomed by my hosts. Thank you for being so accommodating, I had a lovely stay!'

Room left clean and plates washed up on drainer. I would welcome any of Ben's dancers again. Thanks xx
I booked this for a fellow company member who said that 'Colin and Judith's house was a lovely place to stay, homely and eclectic. Having my own kitchenette meant after a long day surrounded by people I was able to hide away, but not have to order takeout in order to avoid more conversations when my social battery was already empty which is a definite plus'.
27th Jul 2025
Thanks Ben your dancers were very quiet (: xx
Thank you Judith, A lovely room with everything you could need. I will book again.
11th Jul 2025
Thanks Adrian - see you again - go well
I stayed in the new attic room and it was brilliant, had everything I could’ve needed including a fridge and microwave kitchen / diner setup! It’s quiet and private with its own key. Very easy to get to Villa Park on public transport but also lots of street parking. Judith was the perfect host, kind and attentive. Would thoroughly recommend staying here if you’re working in Birmingham!

I really appreciate the room offered here. Judith and Colin are lovely and helpful. It’s about a 15-30min drive depending on time of day. I didn’t do the bus. I’m glad I found Judith again.
