About Barnt Green Travel Lounge

Say hello to our team!

Meet the faces of Barnt Green Travel Lounge that make your dream destination happen.

Mike

Launched in 2011 as a home worker with a vision of moving into a retail premise, I wanted to offer something different to other agents so after 2 years we opened an office/shop in Astwood Bank which increased business and reputation almost immediately.

As well as being customer focused and working with our customers to ensure they had the trips they were looking for, we started to offer airport and port transfers which have also gone from strength to strength.

After 3 years in Astwood Bank, we relocated to our current location in Barnt Green with a rebrand and a new name but with the same customer focused ideals when I first started while working from home.

Our reputation has grown within the local area and as such the referral for new business continues to increase.
