May 2024 Trip to Stratford

This home is the perfect place to stay to experience Stratford Upon Avon! It is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located to everything. Judy offered all of the extra touches and treats that made us feel at home… including coffee, sugar, and milk in the refrigerator upon arrival. The area was safe and the parking was close to the home. We were able to walk to all of the historic sites. The garden patio was a delightful place to unwind before and after dinner. We highly recommend!
