Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area. Really interesting little museum and gorgeous leatherwork throughout. Staff there were lovely and really helpful too - even offering to help my son make his own personalised leather key ring, which he loved. Beautiful, quality leather items in the gift shop too!

We are regulars at the the casino and are always greeted pleasantly and enjoy our gaming experience. We would like to highlight the work of Hayley and Marie in particular, they are outstanding members of staff who always brighten our experience and bring warmth to the casino. The only improvement I could suggest is that there is some sort of bell/alert for bar staff, we only visit at non peak times and it can be quite some time to get served at the bar. See you soon :)

Really enjoyed my visit to Walsall Arboretum. Very short walk from the train station and a big park to have a nice afternoon walk in. The augmented reality app they have is great fun too, we don’t even have kids and still enjoyed it!

Lovely house and forge in Willenhall. Good for young and not so young visitors. ???? Story telling by the open fire, roasted chestnuts and knowledgable members of the team to talk through the history. Lovely example of a house from years gone by. Easily spent a couple of hours here.

I am amazed with the new glow up of the library it is very spacious and has endless facilities I love going weekly to revise as it’s nice and quite most of the time. Also love the new kids section however I would’ve preferred if they did that on a seperate side or room as it can get super noisy when they have the toddlers / kids events on and there’s people trying to work, would appreciate if they included a water fountain /bottle filler so people can fill up their water bottles other then that I rlly love the Walsall library and highly recommend everyone pops down as theres something for everyone as they have now included a good few areas in the library which they didn’t have before including the teenage section!! ????????????????????????
