Location

The house is perfectly located with an abundance of cafés, restaurants, and shops nearby. The theatre and Shakespearean places of interest are just minutes walk away. You will not be short of things to do and The River Avon is perfect for an evening stroll or taking in the sights by water.

From the moment you leave the property there is plenty to do and see. Go back in time as you visit the Shakespearean houses to see where the Bard was born, grew up and went to school. Be mesmerised by the black and white Tudor buildings throughout the town centre or simply stroll along the river banks of The Avon. There is always the opportunity to hire a boat or take a river cruise and explore the waters around Stratford.

relaxation

The canal also provides great waterside walks and an opportunity to hire narrow boats and try your skill with the locks a real tourist attraction. You may instead choose to simply relax and people watch in the numerous cafés and restaurants. Enjoy the delights of Stratford market which was awarded the best private market in 2014 and attracts many visitors either in town on a Thursday or riverside on weekends with the Christmas markets opening later into the evening. The RSC theatres - as well as plays - also offer tours behind the scenes, and costume workshops throughout the year.

For those with more energy we have plenty of cycle routes with a traffic free 5 mile route known as The Greenway taking you to Long Marston with two cafés en-route for refreshments, and where you can also hire bikes. Stratford also has a number of golf courses: Hallmark Welcombe, Stratford Oaks, Welford, and Stratford's most prestigious club - Stratford On Avon Golf Club - on the Tiddington Road - Stratford Upon Avon Golf Club.

Childrens entertainment

The Butterfly Farm is a real hit with children (and adults too!) as is the Mechanical Art and Design Museum. There is a large park next to the river which has fabulous play areas for children and tennis courts and if the weather turns there is also the newly renovated leisure centre with a wide variety of sports on offer and Olympic size swimming pool. We also have an Everyman Cinema in the new Bell Court development .
