Warley Woods

Warley Woods is a 40 hectare (100 acre) community park; a mix of woodland, open meadow and a golf course. As a result of its historic plan, designed by Humphry Repton. Although a little more than 3 miles from the centre of Birmingham, Warley Woods is in Smethwick in the borough of Sandwell. Warley Woods is a registered charity and is committed to the long term improvement, maintenance and management of the park. A third of the park is woodland, mostly native species such as oak and beech. The Pavilion is located on the entrance off Lightwoods Hill and is home to the Trust's shop, office, public toilets, and the cafe.

Reviewed By TheCouturedTraveller - Birmingham, United Kingdom

The park is deceptively big and is joined on to a golf course so you can't really tell the size inside. However when you walk through it has woodlands which open up to really large fields and spaces that are very picturesque and you wouldn't believe you are a few miles out of the city. Great place for exercise or hanging out with friends and family. Glad it's my local park.

Fixed Wheel Micro Brewery

Reviewed By RobO87 - Dudley, United Kingdom

Went with a friend last weekend and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Faye, the tour guide was excellent (an ex-employee apparently) and made the whole experience fun. The free flowing beer was wonderful and we tried many different and varied cask and keg varieties. Very good value for money, especially as there was bread and cheese on offer, also free flowing! Would definitely recommend.
