Named 'The Armadas' Rest' due to the beams having been salvaged from the wreckage of the Spanish Armada, the flat, built in the 14th Century is part of the second oldest building in Coleshill, the church being the first. This is a cosy characterful, historic retreat situated in the heart of Coleshill High Street. Nestled among restaurants, pubs and independent boutique shops, metres from the stunning 14th century church which is surrounded by a picturesque croft; all a moments distance by foot.

Full of character and completely unique
Stayed overnight for a party at Heart of England events center. Fantastic to find a breakfast basket we could use and milk, tea,coffee and coffee pods. Property is very old and has uneven floors and steps, but this was not an issue for us. Folder with guest info is informative. Very homely.
