Join us for a weekend away to visit not one but two fantastic Christmas Shopping destinations!
Day One - Birmingham
Departing South Wales we take you to the centre of Birmingham and on to the Ibis Birmingham City Centre Hotel. Check in for your overnight bed and breakfast stay here will be available later on in the afternoon so drop your bags at reception, head out and explore what's on your doorstep before checking in at your leisure later that day.
With so many of the top attractions nestled next to each other your only worry is where to begin!
The main shopping centre is the Bullring, with it's disc clad futuristic building....but don't forget the Mailbox and Grand Central centres too. And if you fancy a nibble then pop along to the Independent boutiques of Great Western Arcade where places like Miss Macaroon and the cheese shop, Anderson & Hill will lead you into temptation...
And if eating out is your thing then Birmingham has it all! From street food to world famous curry houses and even Michelin Star restaurants... you definitely won't go hungry!
Then you have the Jewellery Quarter.. the Canals... the Custard Factory where arts, street food and live music all come together and so much more.. you'll wonder why you hadn't already been to this fabulous Midlands marvel before.
Day Two - Merry Hill
After breakfast and checking out from the hotel we’ll take you over to the Merry Hill Shopping Centre. This former steelworks site is one the UK’s leading undercover shopping malls. With well over 200 shops it’s a great place to do some Christmas shopping. From high street brands to designer stores, and a food court with all your favourites… who cares if it’s cold outside!
Departing later that afternoon for an evening return home.
We have a number of pick up points available for this break as shown below...
