1. Sandwell Valley Country Park

Reviewed By KEITH M - Wolverhampton, United Kingdom
We were desperately disappointed on the morning of Saturday 30th December to find the toilets locked when there were so many people enjoying the play park and walks in the Sandwell Valley Country Park. As a family group of almost 30 including children we met for a walk having travelled from various directions (Hall Green, Wolverhampton, etc). We (especially children) needed the loo before walking. Surely a popular place like this should have basic amenities open. Be warned - go before arriving.

Visited with some work friends and wanted to be children again! This place caters for mostly young kids and teenagers. We knew that this was going to be the case and didn't really mind.
We found it quite good that there were restricted areas for both kids and teenagers. The 'stunt box' runs off a 1.3M minimum. This was our favourite area as we had a little freedom and kids werent just running wild.
The cafe was pricey for some products but again that was expected at a leisure centre.
3. Black Country Living Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4 reviews
Covering 26 acres of former industrial land, Black Country Living Museum is uniquely placed to tell the story of the creation of the world’s first industrial landscape. Over fifty authentic shops, houses and workshops have been carefully reconstructed to preserve the character of the region when its manufacturers bought worldwide fame to Black Country Towns. Take a trip on the tram to explore the canal-side village, where you can meet and chat to the costumed characters. Explore the underground mine and experience the authentic sights, sounds, smells and tastes from the past.

An amazing day out for all the family. Full of Black Country heritage. Canal trips and a trip down the mines are a must do her. Can also get a ride in the old vintage bus. Perfect traditional chippy and sweet shop and of course the pub. Highly recommend

5. Warley Woods
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 53 reviews
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.

We were presented with this stay as an anniversary gift from our daughter's. What a fantastic experience it was too....
We were greeted and shown around the house...the stairs are a challenge but we had so much fun. There is everything you need here modern facilities cleverly hidden away. The only thing I would change is the t.v...I'd take it out...we were so busy exploring the place role playing and generally living in the past that we really didn't switch the t.v on! We didn't miss it...so close to city we popped out later for a couple of drinks then returned where we were entertained by the revellers coming and going in town. So much fun well worth a stay!

Look for the terrific organ.
Get in out if the rain; gaze in awe and, picnic in ' style '.
Open to the public daily, Symphony Hall, offers a great tour experience, with leisurely indoor picnic space.
Look out for free, mid-day organ recitals; city's organists often play practice pieces - whilst locals and city workers take their lunch break here !

Been coming to bingo for quite a while now and when we started we were amazed at the prices of the food, really reasonable for the portion size! Recently, the prices have been increasing with portion sizes not changing and in some cases looking smaller in. Really disappointing.

Reviewed By Nicola S - Birmingham, United Kingdom
I'm a frequent visitor to this farm as my young child loves it. She's so confident around the animals because she's had the opportunity on a few occasions to feed and pet some animals. The prices mean it's accessible to lots of families on a budget.
