Business Travel, With a Little More Space
When a team is travelling to Staffordshire for work, accommodation is often treated as a practical necessity. Somewhere to sleep, somewhere reasonably close to the venue, and ideally somewhere that makes getting to and from the day as easy as possible.
But it doesn't always have to feel like a business trip.
For businesses arranging corporate accommodation in Staffordshire, Blacksmith Cottage offers a practical alternative to booking several separate hotel rooms. For teams visiting St George's Park for a course, conference, event or training, staying together in a private cottage offers a rather different experience.
One cottage. Four bedrooms. Your own space.
Blacksmith Cottage is a luxury 4 bedroom cottage in Staffordshire giving everyone their own room while keeping the group together under one roof. Located in the village of Hoar Cross and just five minutes from St George's Park.
There's a kitchen for preparing food, comfortable living spaces for unwinding at the end of the day and the freedom that comes with having the whole property to yourselves.
There's no meeting in a hotel lobby. No deciding where everyone can sit together. No retreating to separate rooms as soon as the working day finishes.
Just space to relax, catch up and spend time together.
A space that works during the day too
A work trip doesn't stop when you arrive at the cottage.
With fast Wi-Fi and plenty of space around the orangery table, there's room to catch up on emails, make a few calls or sit down together to go over the day ahead.
It means the cottage can work as more than just a place to stay. There is space to get things done, before closing the laptop and settling into the more relaxed side of the property.
A convenient base for St George's Park
Location matters when you're travelling for work.
Blacksmith Cottage is just five minutes from St George's Park, making it a convenient option for teams attending courses, training sessions, conferences and events at the national football centre.
And once the working day is over, you don't have to go far.
The pub is right next door, while the surrounding countryside offers the opportunity to step away from screens, meetings and schedules for a while.
A more relaxed way to travel for work
There is something quite different about returning to a cottage at the end of a busy day.
Make a coffee. Prepare something to eat. Sit down together in the living room. Head out for a drink next door. Or simply have some quiet time in your own space.
It gives a work trip a little more room to breathe.
For colleagues travelling together, it can also make the practical side of a trip simpler. One property, one booking and everyone in the same place.
The practical details matter too
For a work trip, the little practical details can make a big difference.
Blacksmith Cottage has parking for up to four cars, making it easy for colleagues travelling separately to arrive and park at the property.
There is also an EV charger, offering a convenient option for guests travelling in electric vehicles.
Combined with the cottage's proximity to St George's Park, having your own parking and charging facilities means less time spent worrying about logistics and more time to focus on the reason for the trip.
And the cost can make sense too
Blacksmith Cottage is available for corporate stays from £200 per night for up to eight guests.
With eight people sharing, that's potentially £25 per person, per night.
Instead of booking four separate hotel rooms, a whole cottage can provide four bedrooms alongside shared living and kitchen space, without losing the privacy of having your own room.
For teams travelling to Staffordshire
Whether you're travelling to St George's Park for a course, conference or event, arranging accommodation for a team, or simply looking for a more comfortable base for a midweek work trip, Blacksmith Cottage offers a different way to stay.
Four bedrooms.
A private cottage.
Space to work and relax.
A convenient location.
And somewhere that feels like your own space at the end of the working day.
