Other things to note

Summary: A fantastic property, even better than the photos! Great location and walking distance to all the sites we wanted to visit in the town. We fell in love with Stratford Upon Avon and its history and the house completed this. Wonderful hosts who were very responsive and went out of their way to help us find accommodation as we had decided to stay an extra night but unfortunately the house was booked for the additional night. We highly recommend.

Summary: The property was complete with all modern appliances even though a period cottage.Great heating.Easy to walk to shops and attractions of Stratford. Bath was quite a climb for less athletic members to try but a great experience.Some of lower beams could do with having warning toggles hanging down to alert you.

Summary: Staying in this beautiful historical home was a dream come true! I only wish we could have stayed longer! The house is gorgeous, the garden is wonderful (who knew we would be able to enjoy it in early April?). The way Carl & Rachel updated this house to honor it's history but also add elements of modern fixtures elevated it beyond any place I have ever stayed! Please read the manual - it has everything in it you might want to know and even more! The location is incredible. You can walk everywhere and anywhere! The suggestions in the manual for restaurants, etc were very appreciated and spot-on! I absolutely plan to come back again! Thank you so much for hosting us!

Summary: Where do I even start? Upon entry (which was clearly explained and easy to find), we opened the 15th century garden door with an old fashion key. There we found a gorgeous, newly remodeled kitchen with every amenity. There was also a bottle of wine and a box of gourmet cookies waiting for us. Entering the dining area, I felt like I had stepped into the Weasley's house meets Game of Thrones. Literally the place of dreams. It was like a movie set. Then into the family room with a WORKING wood stove. The downstairs bathroom has a bronze soaking tub and toilet. Up the stairs, you find crooked beams and curving walls that have been reinforced yet plastered into the home to reflect its history. The bed were so comfortable and there wasn't a single touch overlooked from the decor to the plush towels. Upstairs there is a modern shower and toilet. Everything about this place is magical. My entire family was sad to go but excited to share the experience. Absolutely a core memory stored....thank you to the incredible hosts for sharing this bit of history with the world.

Summary: My family and I had a lovely time staying in this gorgeous property. It was very well furnished and equipped, and the owner had even left us a bottle of wine. It's perfectly located - very central in Stratford in striking distance of the RSC and lovely restaurants, but not in a noisy area. I would wholeheartedly recommend this property.
