Stayed 1 night while at a conference at the Motorcycle Museum. It's a 20 minute walk to the museum or a 10 minute round the world drive! The village is very pretty and the pub very pub like. So its not a luxury hotel. The room I had was very adequate but not big. Reminded me of french hotel rooms... More

A group of us stayed here for 3 nights whilst at an exhibition at the NEC. Overall the experience everyone had could not be faulted. The owners and staff were very friendly and the meals were superb. I personaly stayed in room 7 which was one of the larger garden rooms - very nice. Would rather stay somewhere like this... More

I stayed here because there was a show that I had to visit at the national motorcycle museum. This pub is in a beautiful little village only a few minutes from the M42 and near Birmingham Airport and the NEC. The pub seams to have been recently refurbished to a high quality. The room was small but clean. The quality... More

This pub/b&b is very well located just off the motorway and 10 mins from Solihull. The breakfast was first class. The restaurant whilst some items on the menu weren't available was also very good and well priced, compliments to the chef. Then we come to the accommodation and this is where it whispers. Yes the room was very small, no... More

I stayed here for a work trip, at first glance the accommodaion seemed basic but tastefully done. After a few minutes I realised there was no main light in the bedroom, only bedside lamps which weren't bright enough to be able to do my hair and makeup. So I thought I'd use the bathroom to straighten my hair but there... More

Our second stay at The White Lion, we gave it a second try as the location is convenient to the NEC. Our first stay was clouded by staff not turning up to serve Breakfast, leaving us with the option of no breakfast or arriving very late for a business meeting. Our recent visit started with no heating in our bedroom... More

We are very sorry you have felt the need to make this review ,but,we feel that we must point out that the failed thermostat battery was replaced within 20 minutes and not two hours. Unfortunately batteries have a finite lifespan and that they must expire at some point during a 24 hour day !! With regard to your other comments... More

We booked on the strength of some good reviews on Trip Advisor. Perhaps our ideas of ‘Very good’ or ‘Average’ are not the same as the majority. I feel almost disloyal in writing this review as the staff and owners are really lovely, they were attentive, friendly and welcoming. It actually wouldn’t take much effort or expense on their part...

Firstly ,sorry for the delay in responding to your comments. We take all reviews seriously. We are sorry you did not appreciate the decoration of your room.The wooden flooring in the outside rooms where you stayed are not just for fashion reasons,but for practicality as well . Fitted carpets would become filthy in no time at all and require replacement... More

The three of us arrived after seeing a show at the NIA and I was disappointed not to be given the two rooms in the pub that I had asked for and been allocated by the member of staff who took the deposit.

I've been here a few times before and I love it. I came here for the same reason Smithy goes awol in Gavin & Stacey. A bit of solitude and time to contemplate...and to sketch.
