Bromsgrove is a market town well-known for its charming atmosphere and the friendly people that live there.

Here are the top reasons people are moving to Bromsgrove: 

Plenty of transport options 

You can travel conveniently by rail, car or air. The railway station offers hourly services, the Birmingham airport is only 42 minutes away, and traveling by car leaves room for easy access to Birmingham and Coventry – which are only 30 minutes away. 

Thriving with rich heritage 

The Avoncroft Museum and St Peter’s Church are two of many historical journeys people can enjoy while living in Bromsgrove. From exploring the grave site of Mabel Tolkien (mother of author J.R.R. Tolkien) to experiencing an unusual collection of 30 rescued and rebuilt buildings and structures, there is something for everyone in this heritage-rich town. 

Food and drink options galore! 

Little Ale House, Bromsgrove’s first micropub, has seven rotating ales from various breweries. You can also share meals with friends and family at some of the town’s local spots like Casa Med tapas lounge and bar. Indulge your taste buds in some hearty-pub food or fine dining delicacies – Bromsgrove has options! 

Pro Tip: don’t enjoy ale? Bromsgrove also has plenty of real ciders and perries to choose from.  

Hidden gems to experience 

Grafton Manor – the most famous Bromsgrove hidden gem – was the former secret meeting place for Catholics after the Reformation. It also marks the former residence of John Talbot (Earl of Shrewsbury,) who was considered an involved suspect in the Gunpowder Plot. Ironically, Talbot’s original manor burned down in the 18th century, but the new building is still marked as his former residence.

I have dealt with both Selina and Sascha, in person and via email. The service each of them has provided has been excellent and makes me feel that I have made the right decision to use Wigwam's services.

I have used the storage at Cheltenham for nearly two years now and have always been glad I made the change from a large facility in Kingsditch. I recall leaving a glowing review of Casey and his team when I first took on the unit. Just yesterday I left a less than complimentary review but have discovered my frustration at the time was due to misleading info I obtained over the Internet and nothing to do with Wigwam. So that review is withdrawn and I continue to recommend Wigwam as a convenient town centre facility, well run and utilising a high tech, easy to use entry system.

Fantastic idea to use an app to gain entry. Once set up it's so easy to use and saves faffing around with keys and security fobs. My first visit was a revelation and is a definite encouragement to keep going back.
Well done Wigwam!!
