Vacation rentals in Selly Oak

Free street parking as advertised. All the amenities were there. Good showers (always important!). The host Charlie was responsive and helpful. The garden wasn't suitable for much else than hanging up up clothes, but other than that, all photo's and descriptions were accurate. And there are parks in the vicinity where green space would be better enjoyed anyway. The conveniently located A4040 provided a smooth on-ramp to all destinations by car. From a Dutch perspective, the Birmingham drivers drove fast, but were generally willing to provide space when needed as well. "Good flow." The Gravelly Hill or Erdington stations take you to the inner city by West Midland Railway for a couple of pounds. Tickets available online. Recommended inner city walking/exploring: Victoria Square and then the Birmingham Canal Old Line north-westward. Recommended food: purchase cosmopolitan ingredients in Erdington High Street and cook your own. (Avoid Tesco Express if you value your money.)

Fantastic property and lovely host. Great communication and very helpful!

The property is lovely and homely. Very modern. We cooked a lot and the kitchen had everything we needed. The reception rooms were both great to gather in with smart TVs. The neighbourhood is peaceful with convenient shops across the road. The host was very responsive if we had any additional queries. The property is far from the city centre and was quite costly via cab.

House was comfortable and perfect for what we needed it for.

We had an amazing stay! The apartment is clean, modern and just like the pictures. The hosts were very responsive which was so helpful when we had questions about car parking. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Booked Sophie’s place just a couple of days before our trip and it was the best choice we made. Sophie was really helpful and the stay at her place felt like I was staying over a friend’s place. Would definitely recommend to anyone

Great Place to stay would Definetly recommend

Highly recommended as a venue and a host. Really nice and spacious house relatively close to the city centre (between 5 and 10 mins in a cab). Great facilities and well-appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. Our schedule meant we didn't have time to take advantage of the pool table / table tennis table or PlayStation, but they'd be a definite bonus for anyone booking and needing entertainment. Stephen is professional and responsive, sending clear instructions about check-in, check-out, how to access the property, etc. He was a pleasure to deal with. One observation: I think the estate might be a relatively new-build, and so the postcode brings cabs to an adjacent street. This will probably improve over coming months and is not a great hardship, but just be aware in the meantime that you'll need to get cabs / Deliveroo (and similar) to drive on a bit further to find the house. Would highly recommend both the house and the host to anyone looking to stay.

A home away from home... thank you for a great stay.
