A quieter alternative to NEC event hotels
The hotel strip around the NEC gets busy during major events — and Arnold Sports is one of the biggest. Springfield House offers a genuinely different experience: a Georgian B&B in the quiet village of Coleshill, just far enough from the crowds to give you proper rest.
Ensuite rooms, free WiFi, and peaceful surroundings mean you can wind down properly after long days at the festival. NEC hotel prices regularly exceed £700–£900 during major events — Springfield House offers a competitive alternative without the chain-hotel premium.
