The Olde Peculiar

"Standard accommodation and clean"

Saram Lodge Lichfield

10/10 Excellent

"Really nice location, especially as it’s close to the wedding hall. The staff were lovely and very welcoming, the beds were really comfortable, and the blackout curtains were a great touch. The room was also nice and quiet with no road noise, which made for a really relaxing stay. I really enjoyed my stay, thank you!"

Lichfield Cathedral luxury 2 bed Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"This is the 2nd time I have stayed at this property and for good reason. The host is responsive, there is off road parking for 1 car, the property is in a quite location but in easy reach of the town centre. The property itself is clean, spacious and has plenty of amenities. Ideal for our 4 night stay"

Premier Inn Lichfield City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first premier in stay. Upon arrival there was signage out front “kids stay for free” which made us feel like we chose a family hotel since we were staying with our 2 young children. The first evening (7-8pm) when arriving home from dinner we had a knock on the door from staff. A noise complaint… we had been in the hotel for less than 5 minutes. It was quite off putting since our kids were at the normal volume of any guest. Other than that, hotel was clean, well kept and a great price for our stay since we were visiting for a few days."

Sandy Hill Farm - Luxury Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"We have had a fabulous stay for our Sons Wedding at Alrewas Hayes.The accomodation was magnificant for us to be able to host the Groom and the Groomsmen and partners - we could not have asked for more. It was comfort & luxury personified.The owners kindly accomodated our requests and the house was brilliant for activities in a lovely setting.The surrounding area is very pretty, with canal walks and a nearby local pub.We can not recommend Sandy Hill Farm highly enough.Candice & Martin"
