About this property

Resting in an enviable position within the market town of Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, is this well-presented, end-of-terrace cottage, Touchstone Cottage. Accommodating up to four guests, this splendid home makes a wonderful base for those looking to tour Warwick, Royal Leamington Spa and The Cotswolds. As you arrive at your home-from-home, you will be greeted by a permit parking place for one car that sits at the front of the property for your convenience. Upon entering the property you will immediately find yourself in the rustic kitchen, a well-appointed space that includes all the essentials to prepare a hearty feast, which can be enjoyed at the stylish dining table. Make your way through to the living room, a light and airy space where you can socialise in the evening, flicking on the Smart TV and deciding on a good movie to watch. From here, step outside to discover the quaint, enclosed garden, offering outdoor furniture and a barbecue to enjoy alfresco dining when the weather is warm. As the evening comes to a close, a charming bathroom awaits upstairs; prepare for the night with an overhead shower or enjoy a soothing rest in the tub. Both bedrooms feature sumptuous double beds, whilst the master is slightly larger in size and provides delightful views of the garden. When you’re ready to explore, there’s so much to enjoy within walking distance; tour the 16th century timber cottage of Shakespeare’s Birthplace, as well as his final resting place, Holy Trinity Church, before stopping at a local pub for a refreshing pint. There are also plenty of well-established restaurants and bars to sample, alongside independent cafés where you can enjoy a sweet treat and coffee. Head to Warwick and take in the many sights and attractions, including the historical Jephson Gardens and Lord Leycester Hospital, plus there are many fantastic shops and markets to browse. Head to the lovely town of Royal Leamington Spa, home to stunning Georgian architecture, a fantastic golf course for outdoor enthusiasts, and a wonderful spa where you can spend the day relaxing with luxurious treatments. With plenty to fill your holiday to-do list, choose Touchstone Cottage as your next retreat to Warwickshire.

  • Jane

    Parking was easy with the parking permit and once parked up, we didn't need to move for the duration as you can easily walk anywhere in town from this house. The two double beds were comfortable and the downstairs living and dining area were particularly pleasant. We really enjoyed Becky's attention to arty details and little curiosities throughout the cottage. Exceptionally clean and well maintained. Excellent communication too. A really lovely stay and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

  • Pamela

    ). Everything thought of. Beautiful, clean, comfortable, welcoming. Couldn't fault it. Very quiet but just a short walk for shops, restaurants, the river and, of course, theatres. We hope to book again in the summer. A delightful cottage.

  • Charles

    This truly is home from home. Everything works like it should and is of the highest quality throughout. The location is very peaceful and within easy walking distance of everything Stratford has to offer. The owner Becky is so helpful and has done everything to make your stay perfect. We wouldn't hesitate to return. Thanks for everything.
