When Michael Fabricant opened the new Broads Travel Group shop in Bird Street, Lichfield on Saturday 8th July, there were free giveaways, exclusive holiday offers, refreshments and the opportunity for people to win a £250 travel voucher. Broads Travel Group is an independent travel agency which has been established for over twenty four years in Mere Green Sutton Coldfield where there is a specialist holiday, cruise and business travel department.

The Managing Director of Broads Travel Group, Chris Parlour, says: "We are delighted with our new city centre travel shop which gives us the opportunity to extend our service to the people of Lichfield. Unlike many high street travel agencies we are not tied to one holiday company so we are able to offer a very wide choice of travel options, from city breaks and last minute holidays to the sun to tailor made itineraries to far away destinations. What’s more, our travel consultants are experienced travellers themselves so they are able to personally advise customers on the best resorts and hotels throughout the world".

Broads Travel Group is part of the Moor Hall Group of companies which consists of The George Hotel in Lichfield and Moor Hall Hotel & Spa in Sutton Coldfield.
