Exchange vows in New Hall Hotel & Spa

A fine example of late Medieval architecture, New Hall Hotel & Spa in Sutton Coldfield began life as a manor house, built by the Earl of Warwick as a hunting lodge in the 13th century, but today it stands proudly as one of England's oldest listed moated houses. At 800 years old, this luxurious property is regarded as one of Birmingham's finest hotels, boasting 60 elegant bedrooms and 26 acres of luscious pastures. When guests enter The Great Chamber, they'll be blown away by the craftsmanship that gives this room such character. The oak-panelled walls, intricately painted ceiling, and pretty leaded windows showcase every bit of this venue's period history, with space for 75 guests.
