Location - Romsley is a small rural village in North Worcestershire situated approximately 3 miles south of Halesowen. When asked to give a description of Romsley for this guide our Lex Allan Grove staff's comments were 'It's really, really popular'. Romsley has an eclectic mix of houses of all shapes and sizes from small bungalows and pretty cottages to substantial country homes, quite literally a house to suit almost anyone. It retains it quite rural charm and yet you can be in Birmingham City Centre within 20-25 minutes and to either junction 3 or junction 4 of the M5 motorway within 10 minutes. The village has its own popular Primary School St Kenelms CE and historically has been in the catchment area of Haybridge High School in Hagley, one of the most oversubscribed schools in the local area and rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted. Romsley has a small selection of shops but is more well known for Romsley Country Store and Jackie Roberts Saddlery , both excellent equine stores. Two village pubs The Sun and The Swallows Nest both serve food and are popular weekend destinations for people outside the area. Romsley offers easy access to stunning Countryside, and is close to the picturesque Clent Hills a keen favourite for walkers, dog owners, and cyclists.
