This was the perfect location for me to get to local appointments. The apartment is well equipped and beautifully presented. Access was easy. The property is set in countryside but accessible to local amenities and plenty to do not far away. Would recommend.
Kate, October 2026
Great flat, comfortable and quiet. Helpful folder of information left. Good quality plain decor, no clutter, heating automatically kept to just right. Kitchen had everything I needed. Very relaxing place to stay plus a bonus basket of toiletries which was very useful when I realised I’d forgotten shower gel! Easy to find with Google maps no problem and easy to get in.
Laura, September 2026
Absolutely fantastic place to stay whilst on my placement would have no hesitation in recommending Sarah’s place, will be re booking for next year once i have my placement dates and will recommend to other students.
Louise, August 2026
An absolutely gorgeous property in a lovely peaceful setting.
The Upper Mews was beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, the kitchen was very well equipped and the bed was super comfortable.
Sarah was a brilliant warm, friendly and very well organised host providing me with check in instructions through to manuals and details about the local amenities. Her communications were excellent and she had thought of everything including extra bottled water, milk and ice due to the recent heatwave.
Thank you for a delightful stay and I would highly recommend this property. I will certainly be back.
Catherine, June 2026
What a find. A great retreat for exploring the beautiful surrounding countryside. A modern reimagining of an old mews and farmhouse, newly decorated with everything you could need. Having stayed in countless airbnbs over the years, this has been one of the best, would highly recommend, and we hope to return soon.
Nick & Trish, July 2026
What a brilliant find! You will not be disappointed with this quirky little apartment. We had an amazing stay in Bromsgrove. We were welcomed by Sarah, who is absolutely lovely, she was very helpful and accommodating. The apartment is furnished to a very high standard and has all the amenities you would want in a home away from home. …All in all, a great stay! Thank you, Sarah. We’ll be back soon! X
Gurj
It is our third time returning to Sarah’s wonderful place and we still can not fault it. It’s a beautiful quiet country escape that we will continue to return to again and again when in need of a last minute weekend away!
Dominique
This place is fabulous. Great communication and prompt response. My weekend at the upper mews was amazing – just the peace and quiet I was craving to get my dissertation finished.
Hosts were hugely accommodating and thoughtful touches such a treat hamper certainly got me through the early hours. Place is amazing with great attention to detail. When can I come back pls?
Yvonne
Great stay. The accommodation is perfect and has everything needed. The host is also really helpful and easy to communicate with.
Highly recommend.
Thank you.
Kelly
A lovely and peaceful place and a great location. We enjoyed our stay
Kevin
Phenomenal place to stay, hosts very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend 5*.
Sameena
I have stayed in a few Air B&B homes now and this outshone them all.
The facilities are what you would expect in an expensive hotel suite.
The kitchen lounge area is cosy and comfy to curl up in and the kitchen is good enough for a full size house if you need to cook a ‘proper’ meal.
The bed is the most comfortable I have slept in for years (including my own) and the shower is to die for!
Liz
Sarah was the perfect host, great communication before our arrival and friendly and helpful during our visit. This is a really great little place to stay, spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable in a quiet private location with off road parking. Would stay again and would definitely recommend.
Gordon
We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay in this apartment, which was well placed for our planned visits to the Avoncroft Historic Building and Forge Mill Needle museums. Immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and comprehensively equipped, this apartment lacked nothing for a totally self-sufficient stay. Highly recommended.
Marc
Sarah’s place is truly brilliant. It’s set in the most idyllic area and the apartment itself is so clean, comfortable and spacious making it very inviting and welcoming. Very modern and furnished fully with a large kitchen including washing machine. Smart TV with apps to enjoy things to watch whilst staying in. Sarah is so friendly and was on hand if I needed anything but otherwise let me enjoy my stay. She wants you to have the best time and that’s exactly what I had.
Susan
The photos don’t do this amazing space justice! Clean, warm and welcoming, the apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay and is amazing value for money. I would definitely recommend to friends and stay again!
Charlotte
A lovely place to stay with a lovely host! When I told Sarah I was vegan, she was kind enough to buy vegan treats for when we arrived at The Upper Mews. Highly recommend! X
Jade
The drive to the property was beautiful itself. Soon as we saw the black front door we knew it had character. Once the door was opened everything was laid out perfectly. Amazing house and surroundings make this a little gem. Furnishings where spot on. Nothing to complain about. Communication was perfect and anything we needed all we had to do was ask. I can see why this place is always booked up. Lived up to the hype. Will be back soon. Thumbs up.
