Solihull has plenty of historic landmarks, cultural experiences and serene countryside but if you hire a car from the town centre, you can also visit many more West Midlands gems, from National Trust manors to Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens.
Solihull’s central location makes it a great starting point for days out in nearby cities too. Birmingham, Coventry and Leicester are all under an hour away by road, while you should be able to reach Oxford and the Cotswolds within an hour and a half.

Driving in Solihull is relatively straightforward. The city is very driver-friendly with easy access to the surrounding motorways and A-roads. However, the A34 around Stratford Road and the junctions joining the M42 are known to get congested during peak hours, so be sure to check live traffic updates before setting off.
Take the M42 and M6 to reach Birmingham’s canals in just under 30 minutes or stay on the motorway to head north for Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield, which are all around two hours’ drive from Solihull.
Want to explore the town on foot or retire to your hotel for the night? There are plenty of places to leave your wheels in Solihull. Both the Touchwood and John Lewis car parks offer 24-hour service at reasonable rates near the town centre, while Church Hill Car Park is another good option for short or long stays.
