Cadbury World
Cadbury World is a chocolate-themed visitor attraction built next to the historic Cadbury factory in Bournville, the model village the Cadbury family built for its workers in the late 19th century. It combines the history of the Cadbury company and cocoa production with interactive zones, a 4D cinema experience, and, unsurprisingly, chances to sample and buy chocolate.
It's aimed squarely at families and chocolate enthusiasts rather than offering a genuine working factory tour (you don't see the actual production line, which is a common source of visitor disappointment). The Bournville village itself, with its Arts and Crafts-style housing and green spaces, is worth a short wander if you're already out this way.
Tickets must be booked for a specific time slot and tend to sell out during school holidays, so book ahead.
