Birmingham

Cool Birmingham
Helena Thompson braves the chill...

Blossoming they may be, but Birmingham botanical gardens are not for the thin skinned. The authentic Japanese Teahouse doesn't offer much shelter from the cold, the greenhouses are locked and even the 150 hybrid roses look like they're shivering.

So it's time to desert those sunny Southern flower borders and lush vegetable gardens in search of warmer comforts. Those who leave behind the benches and swings, and sneeze at the zoo will not be disappointed by the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Birmingham Royal Ballet. To the tune of Carmina Burana and the Dante Sonata, these cultural hot houses steam with heady tales of love and war.

Other potential sell-outs offering plenty of body heat are Birmingham Repertory Theatre and the City's Alexandra Theatre. The pre-Raphaelite collection in the city's museum and art gallery is also a pretty steamy affair. But if you're looking for a way to stay warm at night, step into Ronnie Scott's club, winner of the Birmingham Nightlife Award.

Hotel Notes:
We feature the Copperfield House Hotel. This elegant mid-Victorian house dates back to 1868. Located in the exclusive residential suburb of Selly Park, Copperfield House is an expertly run establishment following in the upstairs-downstairs tradition. For details of this hotel see:
