1 Bedroom Cottage in Stratford-upon-avon

Characterful features blend with modern comforts in this beautifully converted former barn set deep in the Warwickshire countryside. With flexible sleeping arrangements and open-plan living, it’s an ideal base for families and their four-legged friends planning days of walking and adventure. Just 3 miles away lies historic Stratford-upon-Avon, world-famous for its links to William Shakespeare; visit the playwright’s birthplace, his former school, and the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy numerous local trails, including a riverside footpath to the charming village of Clifford Chambers (2.5 miles). For even more Warwickshire heritage, the county town of Warwick (11 miles) offers its impressive medieval castle, along with St Nicholas’ Park and St Mary’s Church. Other nearby highlights include National Trust Hidcote and Stratford Butterfly Farm (both within 7.5 miles). The North Cotswold towns of Chipping Campden, Broadway, and Stow-on-the-Wold are all within a 30-minute drive.

The redbrick barn conversion sits alongside one other holiday retreat on a working farm. Kick off muddy walking boots as you step inside to discover a beautiful ground-floor living space where whitewashed walls combine with modern amenities, all soaked in natural light thanks to the glass doors. Eco heating, made extra cosy thanks to the soft seating opposite a TV in the lounge area – perfect for restful movie nights. The chic kitchen sits at one end of the living space and offers everything needed for cooking up Warwickshire feasts, to be enjoyed at the wooden dining table that sits in the light of the glass doors. At the end of each day away, head up to the first floor and find a spacious open-plan bedroom set beneath a vaulted ceiling with exposed wooden beams. This room boasts a king size bed and two singles, served by a stylish en-suite shower room for long morning soaks.

While there is no private outdoor space at the property, guests are surrounded by countryside walks and riverside trails, perfect for morning walkies and post-dinner strolls. Dogs will benefit from a handy washing station outside, while guests can come and go with ease thanks to private parking complete with dedicated EV charger.
