Banks's Sunbeam at the Hopwood House, Hopwood

This pub is nestled in the beautiful Worcestershire countryside in a green belt section between Redditch and the outskirts of Birmingham. It’s directly alongside a canal which has a towpath for pedestrians, though the major link road that runs outside keeps the pub very busy. The pub’s built on a hill which gives s very steep climb up the steps from the pub’s car park, or you can avoid this by climbing the hill up the road and entering the pub through its traditional porch entrance on the other side. There’s a large variety of tables to suit all groups from couples who fancy a quiet meal in the corner to a family meal and there’s even bigger sections for those who want to make a night of it. Towards the bar area there’s two large snugs for. Ore groups; and just round the side of the bar is a space reserved for drinkers to meet up.
