“It was a beautiful experience it was my first time there and it was clean spacious and it had a beautiful calm feel to it and it was well organised with signs on doors saying what they are. It was a great experience this might have to be my new mane Masjid and it has great parking space.❤”

“David - what a hero! I spent years searching for the right treatment and getting nowhere. It wasn’t until I turned to private treatment & found David, that my journey to recovery has finally begun. When I first sought help for my health issues, I trusted the NHS to guide me through what I assumed would be a straightforward process of diagnosis & recovery. But what began as a search for answers soon spiraled into a series of missteps and misunderstandings that left me physically & mentally broken. Passed around different departments , I received conflicting advice and was misdiagnosed multiple times - leaving me trapped in a perpetual cycle of confusion, fear and anxiety. Unable to find the support I needed, my health continued to deteriorate and I was signed off work for six months, at a life threatening low weight and battling severe anxiety and stress. I was referred to an eating disorder unit, where I was boxed into the label of ‘anorexia’ - a condition far removed from my actual issues. Treatment was one-size-fits-all treatment and completely wrong for my situation, making matters even worse. This fundamental misunderstanding left me feeling isolated, invalidated, and like I was failing every week when no progress was made. The treatment plan lacked nuance and didn’t provide therapy or practical tools for improvement. Instead, I faced judgment, threats of hospitalisation, and no actionable support. Admitting my case was too ‘risky’ for them to handle, they resorted to hospitalisation—a step I knew would only worsen my food-related fears and mental health issues. Recognising this would be wrong for me, they initiated a mental health assessment to detain me against my will. This was one of the most terrifying moments of my life. With an existing phobia of hospitals, following a traumatic experience involving complications & a blood transfusion growing up, the prospect of being forced into this environment petrified me. I felt powerless, and my family was left scrambling for alternatives. That’s when we found David - who within days had taken me under his wing. Having been let down so many times before, we were hesitant to seek private care and skeptical about therapy after so many failed attempts. But from the moment David responded to our inquiry, everything felt different. He was professional yet compassionate, and his genuine concern for my wellbeing shone through from our very first conversation. For the first time in years, I felt seen, understood, and supported. He is so positive and encouraging, and his approach is filled with techniques and tools that are completely personalized. He’s helping me regain control, relax, and make meaningful changes at a pace that works for me. David listens intently, adapts to my individual needs, and creates an environment where I feel safe to explore and grow. (And not to mention he’s bloody hilarious!) after just a few sessions, my mindset had shifted and I’m already able to eat more freely than I have in years. It’s a long journey, but for the first time in five years of suffering, I’m finally on the road to recovery and can see myself coming back every day. I cannot put into words how grateful I am for David’s constant care and encouragement. He’s not just a therapist— he’s a partner & a real friend. I would recommend him to anyone feeling misunderstood or looking to gain back control of their life and take steps toward a healthier, happier future.

“Leanne and the team did a beautiful job with the flower arrangements for my dad's funeral, including quite a few bespoke items which they were able to meet our ideas perfectly. High quality, great service and reasonably priced.”

“Some say C&M has lost its appeal, truthfully we didn’t see one supercar in the 2 hours we were there on Sunday afternoon, so can confirm the rumours. That aside, we had a fantastic drive out and the food was super tasty. Huge thank you to Ed, a star employee, he really impressed us with his professionalism and can do approach. We had issues with the food ordering app, it was no drama for Ed he came out and took our order then delivered the drinks, very polite and a credit to C&M.”

“Such an amazing Christmas grotto experience! My self and my son really enjoyed all the performances, how everyone was involved and Santa was fantastic. The little extras like the making of the reindeer’s food and the chocolate treats were a lovely little extra touch on the experience xxx”

“Beautiful woodlands, nature at its best! The trees were absolutely fascinating and added to the charm. Great for peaceful strolls, picnics and relaxing in the fresh air. The car park was easy to find and reasonably priced. A perfect spot for nature lovers.”

“We had our Christmas party last night, the atmosphere in this place is sensational!!! Highly recommend having your Christmas do here or in fact a special birthday or occasion. The food is amazing and the staff are so attentive. Everyone was up singing and dancing! What a night!”

“This place and the staff are amazing ! We called in after finding on google on the way to collect a motorbike this morning - would have been happy to spend all day there ! - nice place - nice food - nice people a must visit if your near !”

“I really enjoy an occasional evening in here, real ales, real ciders. No TVs and no kids, bliss.”

“This place is really cool. We stumbled across it when heading to Warwick Castle for a gig. The place looked quirky so we thought we would have a pint. The decor is a little hap hazard but has the feel of an old pub with none of the yellowing from fag smoke. There are different casks on constantly. We tried a sour that nearly caused my lips to bleed I pursed them together that tight and a blood orange cider which went down way too easily. The young lad was friendly and allowed us to try a couple of beers before buying our drinks and the overall atmosphere was very friendly with our small group talking to multiple other groups of people in the hour we were in there.”

“Amazing scout campsite really glad I came here with SSAGO. The trek from the station isn't too bad however I don't recommend it with a very heavy rucksack. At the campsite you can hear the planes and trains but there is no shortage of wildlife sounds and sightings. Facilities in good condition and overall it's a great place to take your group! I forgot to take photos of the place in general but here's the night sky from the brownie field. Despite being so close to towns and cities the sky is very very clear!”

“Not to big so can see the stage great. Watched shrek the musical was quite good funny at times”

“Very intimate venue. Seats are steeply tiered with little leg room and not for the faint hearted but comfortable. Drinks and ice-creams are sensibly priced. Toilets clean. An enjoyable evening and a venue I would happily visit again.”

“Daughter plays football here, great bar and food inside”

“Wife recently used this florist for a bouquet of flowers for both my mum and sister, have to say they looked fantastic and both were very happy. The flowers were exceptional and some are still going strong after two weeks. Will be using them again and happy to recommend to others.”

“Broken washing machine.... Called at 9am on the 27.12.. so a rubbish time of the year.... No problem for Owens, 3 integrated In stock, life is now back to normal, and I've kept the wife busy. Winning.”

“Delicious food and drink with excellent service! I fully reccommend as few visits to have lunch if you'd like a perfect meal!”

“Good social space for the village nicely linked to the Cement works heritage. Excellent talk at the club last night about the history of the works. Need to be a member for a very modest fee if you are a regular.”

“Went to Common Ground for the first time this more. Lovely space, warm welcome. Love the mid century furniture. Flat white was perfect. Attend a mum and baby yoga group- thank you for letting us use your space. My daughter loved all the plants. We’ll be back!”

“I ordered some flowers for my Aunt's 93rd birthday. She was over the moon and said they were beautiful. Thank you very much for making her day.”

“Greatest place in the world. Spent a semester at Wroxton College in Fall of ‘99. Met my future wife there, as did several others.”

“Excellent food and very well priced. Lovely friendly atmosphere and all staff were very polite. Will be going back soon and would highly recommend. Keep it up guys!!”

“We have been watching the Christmas pantomime at the Belgrade Theatre in Coventry for the last six years, and as always, this year was absolutely fantastic. The cast is amazing and we had a great night, just as we do every year. Iain Lauchlan as Nanny Fanny McWheeze and Craig Hollingsworth as Muddles the Jester, are particularly brilliant. We love watching them, especially when things don’t quite go to plan, which always adds to the fun and laughter! We visited on Thursday 18th December and had another wonderful experience. The Belgrade Theatre continues to deliver a truly magical and memorable pantomime year after year. Highly recommended!”

“The all process from start to end was smooth and easy. Staffs are very supportive especially Joanna. She update everything on time. The process was quick and finished before they said. I’m really happy with all process and rented through cloud 9.”

“Lovely location Went for a woodland walk and granddaughter enjoyed the playground The first car park, you come to get really busy, but there’s tons of parking further on £3.20 for two hours, Parking”

“I was very lucky to find myself at the Coundon House for an evening. I stayed in Room 1 double with an en-suite and it was bliss! Everything I could have needed and a very relaxing and homely stay. Breakfast was wonderful and Regina was very welcoming. Thank you for a fab stay!”

“Headed to this beautiful park for a concert July 2025 with a friend. The stage was set up near the tennis courts. The entry area near the stage was very chilled out and overall I really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere seeing a relatively little known band (by UK standards at least). If you are thinking of seeing a performance at this park, I would absolutely recommend!”

“Lovely kurkure park with exceptional cafe!”

“Best pub in Rugby. Great choice of beers and ciders and very well kept. Friendly and cheerful bar staff. The landlords Lisa and Graham definitely know how to run a pub.”

“Absolutely love it here! They get everything spot on. Proper home cooked Sunday roast, really generous portions too. We’ve been as a couple, a family and then for a big birthday too - staff are so attentive. Relaxed and informal setting and they have 3 teles so often showing different sports which is ace. My partners veggie which is really tasty. Drink and snack selection is brilliant too. Our go to Sunday location”
