Located in the West Midlands, Solihull is a market town that offers a quieter way of life than its neighbour of Birmingham. Solihull has been named one of the top places to live in the UK several times, probably because it really is a country town. Throughout Solihull, you'll find historic architecture and timber-framed Tudor houses amongst the countryside backdrop, with nearly three quarters of the borough being defined as Green Belt. With over 1,500 acres of parks, there is so much space to run, play, cycle and enjoy the outdoors to your heart's content. Brueton Park sits just on the edge of the town centre, whilst Olton Jubilee Park has its very own BMX track, and the Parkridge Centre has 5.5 acres of nature reserve.
