West View is an interesting property, built by my great grandfather in 1904. It is a four bedroom double fronted detached house standing in its own grounds with ample parking space. The dining room was once a milliners shop, which was run by his daughters. The house is still much the same as when it was built, some of the furniture is original to the house. There is a shared full bathroom and shower upstairs and walk-in shower room downstairs. Guest will also have shared access to a living room, dining room, kitchen, and outdoor garden with tables and chairs.

Although I'm new to hosting, I have always worked in the service industries, and did run a public house for a few years. I enjoy folk music, both playing and singing, motor caravaning and diy.

Armitage is in the centre of England and is quite handy for many interesting places. The village itself has five public houses within two miles, Royal British Legion, only 50yds away, two ladies hairdressers, Post Office. Grocery shops, butchers, news agents, chemist, there is a fish and chip shop and a Chinese take away about half a mile in Handsacre. Cannock Chase is four miles away, this is an area of outstanding natural beauty, there are many walks, some of which start from the forestry commission, there are a lot of deer here, and also an ancient woodland. Armitage is also only a short walk away from the river trent and the trent and Mersey canal. We are five miles from the city of Lichfield, which is a lovely town, and Lichfield cathedral is well worth visiting. We are 20 miles from Birmingham 12 miles from Stafford. Also, only a 30 to 45-minute drive to Derbyshire, Alton Towers, Drayton Manor Park and zoo. Matlock Bath, Gulivers Kingdom, Conkers, Twycross zoo, Trentham Gardens, Monkey Forest, and many more places of interest.
