The Property — Forget-Me-Not B&B
A quiet, floral-themed B&B on Stourbridge’s edge, with bay-windowed rooms and a back garden where you can have breakfast when the sun’s out. The lobby smells of linen and floor polish; the owner hands you a key on a brass fob and points you to the lounge's bookcase. It suits independent travellers who want a proper base—no concierge theatrics, just decent beds, tea trays and a cooked-to-order full English. You get on-street parking and a 15-minute walk into town.
Chronicles of Stourbridge
Stourbridge grew from a medieval market town on the River Stour, booming in the 17th and 18th centuries on glassmaking and coal. Its Victorian expansion left a legacy of red-brick terraces and civic buildings like the Town Hall (1886). The glass industry declined post-war, but the Red House Glass Cone (a Grade II listed former factory) survives as a museum. Today the town is a commuter hub for Birmingham and a gateway to the Severn Valley countryside. Culturally it balances pub-rock gigs, antiques shops and a quiet canal-side charm.
Best Time to Visit
Full Stourbridge guide →Best months
June–August. Warm enough for Stourbridge Canal walks and pub beer gardens; crowds are light because this isn’t a tourist magnet. July and August offer peak daylight, with sunsets after 9pm.
Peak / festival surge
No major festival month; the Stourbridge Lion (classic vehicle rally) draws crowds in late September. Hotel prices rise modestly (+15–20%) during school holidays and Christmas market weekends. Summer weekends fill B&Bs like Forget-Me-Not fastest.
Budget shoulder season
May and September. Room rates drop 20–30% from summer highs, weather is mild (15–20°C), and you avoid school-holiday families. Book for quieter garden seating.
Weather & packing
West Midlands weather is famously fickle: a 20°C June day can turn to drizzle by teatime. Pack layers and a lightweight waterproof jacket no matter the forecast—also bring sun cream, because clear spells here saturate UV fast.
Live City Briefing — Stourbridge
- The new Stourbridge Interchange bus-rail hub opened in May 2026, improving links to Birmingham New Street (journey time 35 minutes) and reducing town-centre traffic. Check West Midlands Railway for weekend engineering works near the B&B.
- The Red House Glass Cone museum is running a summer exhibition on 18th-century glass-blowing techniques through to September – timed-entry slots now bookable online.
- Several sections of the Stourbridge Canal towpath have been resurfaced this spring, making the 2-mile walk to Wordsley easier for visitors on foot.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jun 2026Before you check in to Forget-Me-Not B&B, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room at the back of the building overlooking the garden or car park — less street noise than the front facing the main road.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms directly above the breakfast room or bar if the B&B has one — early morning clatter and evening chat can carry.
