This picturesque 17th century cottage feels like stepping into another world. Set across three floors, its original Tudor facets like the timber framed façade, wooden beams and exposed brickwork have been preserved, alongside antique furniture and hanging tapestries. Right in the heart of Warwick, just a six minute walk from the station, you are perfectly placed to explore all this beautiful market town has to offer. Stroll ten minutes to St. Nicholas Park, where you can rent pedalo boats to float along the River Avon, surrounded by postcard-perfect scenery. Warwick Castle is just down the road, and after a spot of culture there are plenty of traditional pubs serving excellent food to stop for lunch in. When you arrive home you will be drawn to the warm glow of the sitting room – spend a cosy evening on the sofa, watching Netflix or curled up with a book. The master bedroom will transport you back in time, save for its squishy king size bed. The super fast Wi-Fi is perfect for those who want to work remotely. On warm summer mornings, the back garden is a sun trap and the perfect spot for al fresco breakfast, or sundowner drinks after a day of exploring.

About Stratford-upon Avon
