You don't need a week off to feel like you've had a proper break. Some of our most contented guests are those who arrive on a Friday evening and leave on Sunday morning — rested, well-fed and surprised by how much they managed to fit in.
Friday Evening: Arrive and Unwind
Check in, drop your bags, and let the quiet of Himley village do the rest. Our conservatory restaurant serves evening meals in a relaxed setting — or, if you'd prefer a pub supper, The Crooked House (rebuilt) and The Vine in Kinver are both within a short drive.
Saturday: Choose Your Adventure
A full day gives you time for one major attraction and one slower activity. Here are three combinations our guests love:
- Culture & countryside: Black Country Living Museum in the morning, canal towpath walk in the afternoon
- Family day out: Dudley Zoo & Castle, followed by fish and chips at a local favourite
- Relaxed explorer: Morning walk around Himley Hall Park, afternoon browsing Stourbridge's independent shops
The best short breaks aren't about rushing to tick things off. They're about slowing down just enough to notice the things you'd normally walk past.
Sunday Morning: A Proper Breakfast
Before you head home, sit down for a full cooked breakfast in our restaurant. It's one of the things guests mention most in reviews — and it's included in your room rate. Take your time. You've earned it.
