We love coming to Coombe Abbey, it is for sure one of our favourite outdoor places in the area. We’ve been coming here for years since we moved to the area. Our kids love to scooter here, all of the pathways are flat & accessible. They also love to; generally run around & explore, climb trees, go digging in the loose soil, watch the bunnies & sheep at the fields at the back, feed the ducks/geese/swans/pigeons, play stick or pinecone races in the streams. There are two play areas, the first by the visitor centre is mainly aimed at younger children, so we tend to head to the one at the back of the park near the ‘top pool’ which has bigger equipment at it. In good weather, there are plenty of open spaces to sit on a blanket to have a picnic etc. You could also happily play games such as kicking a ball around, rounders, frisbee etc. If you’re wanting to spend a bit more money, the recently opened Go Ape climbing centre is good too, but I’ll review that separately. When the visitor centre is open, the shop is lovely with lots of different outdoor toys for kids to enjoy, alongside general gift items, all at reasonable prices too. They also have other units in there supporting local craftsmen too which is really good to be supporting small local business. The food at the cafe is also good, when it is open. Definitely recommend to anyone ????????

I visited Santai spa on Monday and was greeted by Antonia who was extremely friendly and made me feel very welcome. The pool area is very serene with a good offering, sauna, steam room, experience shower and heated loungers. But the WOW factor was the Jacuzzi outside on the terrace. Later in the day i had my treatments with Keeley who was very professional and made me feel at ease. Overall a brilliant spa day and i will definitely be returning.

Winterbourne House and Garden

The Garden, tea room and shop are open daily 10.30pm to 5pm (last entry 4.30pm). The House remains closed until further notice. Restored to its Edwardian Arts and Craft splendour, Winterbourne House is a unique heritage attraction – set within seven acres of beautiful botanic gardens. Only minutes from Birmingham city centre, Winterbourne is a hidden gem – home to beautiful antiques and over 6,000 plant species from around the world. Wander along the woodland walk, stroll through the hazelnut tunnel, cross the 1930’s Japanese Bridge or simply soak up the tranquillity of this perfectly English Edwardian home.

Went here around four months ago with my friends. It's so beautiful and peaceful here. No noise from the city, it's in an almost countryfied area. Really lustrous, colourful gardens, with various little areas that are a little bit different and unique to each other. They have an orchard, a gorgeous Japanese bridge over a small pond, glass houses full of succulents and cacti, some really exquisite sites there, and all in its just a relaxing, pleasent walk through that you can take your time strolling around in, for as long as you want. House we couldn't see, but had some afternoon tea there and sat outside, good prices for tea and cake, really delicious as well. Not sure if the cakes are made there or bought in, or if they have the same cakes through the year or change the options around, but they have a good selection to pick from. Definitely will try and go back there when they're able to open the house to the public.

Amazing day and such a relaxing experience that I slept all the way home. Food is gorgeous. We arrived to a breakfast of hot croissants, fresh fruit (fresh chunks of pineapple and melon most definitely not tinned) with all the cereals and granola plus endless tea and coffee. Spa facilities were lovely and clean. Robes and towels thick and fluffy. I liked that you got 2 towels and could replace further if needed but I didn’t need to. We had the Elemis paper party which came free with our package. Lovely lady comes with all the kit where you can try all the expensive products. Really enjoyed that with the hot face mitt I felt like I’d had my own facial. Lunch was lovely again. Delicious choices of cold meats salad and hot roast potatoes. Afternoon warm mince pies and goey chocolate brownie. No bland rabbit food here you get fed well with quality food. We were about to buy a glass of fizz with our lunch then realised a winter fizz came free with our package! Didn’t even have to ask as 2 glasses of fizz arrived at our reserved table. We didn’t have time for treatments but would love to come back snd try some. It’s so nice to be able to spend a day on yourself doing something relaxing in this busy world of work and fast paced life. The people we got friendly with said this place beats the big names like Hoarcross so if I did another spa day I would definitely come back here. In fact we loved it so much and the staff and atmosphere of the main hotel with beautiful bar and restaurant we booked afternoon tea for 2 for the new year. A bit more expensive than a lot of other places but we know it will be worth it.

This was a sophisticated hen party for my art deco- mad daughter - it was a perfect experience from start to finish. Service throughout was exceptional; our phenomenal afternoon tea went on well into the early evening, then we enjoyed wonderful cocktails. We had intended to have bar snacks later but we were all too full. We demolished the gorgeous biscuits from my daughters minibar instead. The bar snacks will have to wait for a future visit - which is a MUST! Bedrooms were fabulous My only disappointment was that the pillows are quite hard, but I found out afterwards that there were more "fluffy" pillows in the wardrobe but hadn't been aware of this. Also I would have liked a magnifying mirror in the bathroom. Breakfast was divine... really sad to leave, I'm having afternoon tea at the Ritz later next month and I can't imagine it will be half as good as the afternoon tea experienced here.
