Arden Park

Redditch offers a genuinely useful mix of town convenience and Worcestershire countryside, with Birmingham city centre roughly twenty miles north. For families, there's a good spread of primary schools in the Winyates and Church Hill areas, with Trinity High School, Tudor Grange Academy and St Augustine's Catholic High among the secondary options locally. Redditch railway station runs regular cross-city services to Birmingham New Street via Bromsgrove and University, and the M42 at Junction 2 puts Solihull, the NEC and Birmingham Airport within easy reach. Day-to-day shopping is covered by the Kingfisher Centre in the town centre plus Sainsbury's, Tesco Extra, Asda and Morrisons stores dotted around town. For eating out, Redditch has a solid range of independents and chains, while nearby Alcester, Studley and Henley-in-Arden add country pubs and restaurants. Arrow Valley Country Park, with its lake and trails, is a short drive away.
