Stratford upon Avon Holiday Cottages

What our customers say about their holidays

  The accommodation was in a great location and the house itself felt relaxed and comfortable.

  We had also told the owners it was our honeymoon and we were left a bottle of wine and chocolates which was a nice touch! The terrace is a lovely place to relax at the end of the day or sit in for morning coffee and it felt private and contained. At the end of the day, I do like to read before going to sleep and this was a little tricky as the only lights in the bedroom was the main light- a couple of bedside lamps would really help this. Additionally, whilst there is use of the TV and Netflix, you do need your own account (which we did) but I feel this could be a bit clearer on the advert. There is also no other TV options and you cannot access the free view TV as there was no aerial (or we couldn’t seem to get it working!) We did have a really lovely week away and the owners have made good use of the space.

  We have very much enjoyed our stay in Stratford-upon-Avon.

  We stayed in a well presented mid-terrassed property in a quiet and nice area at short walking distance from the city centre. Thanks to the parking license we could park our car in the street. The property has recently been refurbished to a modern holiday cottage with a well equipped kitchen and a nice bathroom with a shower. Descending from the stairs is not always easy. This property would benefit if a handrail was to be fitted over the entire length of the stairs. Also the height of the door opening of the second bedroom was limited for someone of my length of 6 feet. Upstairs we missed a wardrobe for our clothing. The cleanliness was in general good, but more detailed attention could should be given to the windows, the shelves in the kitchen and the inside of the waste bin in the kitchen.

  It was a spacious cottage with all that you needed for your stay, apart from a freezer compartment in the fridge.

  I had brought several frozen items with me, so a freezer of some description would have been useful. Ideally situated for visiting Stratford upon Avon or Warwick Castle. Outside the cottage is a fenced grass area ideal for sitting in or for children . There were a few leaflets, but it would be useful if there was more information on what was available in the local area. In addition there was no information about what to do with the sheets/towels at the end of the stay. They didn’t provide information regarding waste/recycling, so you didn’t know which bin was appropriate. About 5 minutes away is a Waitrose with a cafe, vets, pharmacy and a Costa. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

  Shirley's really was the ideal holiday rental for me and my 2 Teenage Children.

  The area was lovely and quiet and we enjoyed the short walk to the Centre and back each day of our holiday. The house is beautiful, comfortable, really tastefully furnished with a well equipped, roomy kitchen, 3 amazing bedrooms with warm, comfortable beds and has everything you need for a fantastic stay. We really appreciated the little extra/personal touches too such as toiletries, fleece throws, board games, tea, coffee, salt and pepper and also being able to contact the owner so easily (and get a prompt reply!). I would definitely stay with you again and recommend you to other people, we had a really lovely holiday and were sad to leave! Thank you so much xx

  Beautifully styled and very comfortable holiday home in a great location in the Old Town, within easy walking distance of Stratford Upon Avon's main attractions and eating places.

  Easy to park outside or near the property with the inclusion of a parking permit which took away any parking worries. The property has everything we needed for a weeks stay and there is also a handy launderette on the corner of Bull Street. Only suggestion would be to extend the time on the automatic bathroom light sensor as the main light goes out far too soon which could have safety implications with the steps that go down into the bathroom and when in the shower (we used the bathroom mirror light as backup). Really enjoyed our visit and looking forward to staying again.
