Bromsgrove. I collected my aunt and we allowed ourselves some extra time as the
direct road to Bromsgrove was closed. After zipping through the town centre’s
traffic, we climbed a hill to its peak then turned right onto a narrow road
which soon became a dusty gravel path. A large lawn lined with trees was placed
in front of the manor house, and a few tables and chairs had been set up in the
courtyard to accommodate the bar. Our first task however; was to check in.
There was a bit of confusion over how many people were booked; what the
sleeping arrangements were and the price of the room. Once that was resolved,
we climbed a large carpeted staircase up to a narrow corridor where our room
overlooked the courtyard below. There was a large bathroom, a sofa, a TV and a
large wardrobe together with a small desk holding supplies for tea and coffee.
