These
holiday cottages are situated in the middle
of the pretty village of Exhall. Parts of
the farmhouse date back to Tudor times and
for centuries it’s been the home of the
local clergyman who both cultivated the land
and preached in the tiny church next door.
William Shakespeare is alleged to have
referred in a poem to ’Dodging Exhall’ and
the tag has remained ever since. If you wish
to dodge the hustle and bustle of the 21st
century, you could do no better than stay in
this delightful place, for although peace
and quiet is in plenty, a 10 minute drive
will take you to Stratford-upon-Avon, 40
minutes to the National Exhibition Centre in
Birmingham, or Broadway in the beautiful
Cotswolds Hills. All this, plus plenty of
local country pubs serving good food and the
many historic houses and castles that abound
in the area, make this an ideal holiday
location for exploring the Heart of England.
Shops 2 miles, pub ½ mile.
