1 Bed Cottage in Wellesbourne

About this property

Set on the fringe of the fine Charlecote Park in the historic town of Stratford-upon-Avon, this inviting couples' retreat is a dream for culture seekers and romantics alike. Just over 4 miles away, explore Shakespeare's Birthplace before settling into a velvet seat at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre for world-class performances. While you're here, Stratford's streets brim with boutique shops and independent galleries, while its pubs serve hearty game pies and ales from a celebrated Warwickshire producer. Ryton Pools Country Park (16.5 miles) offers long woodland walks for the outdoorsy guests, alongside blankets of wildflower meadows, kingfisher sightings and tranquil lakeside paths. For something a little more lively, Birmingham is just 45 minutes by train and sports a wide variety of shops and food outlets, including the famous Bullring Shopping Centre (30 miles).

Travel up the tree-lined drive to discover an attractive cottage for two. Step inside to find a compact yet functional kitchen/diner with Shaker-style cupboards and all the equipment needed to rustle up a meal. Unwind at the table for two with a crisp beverage and a game of cards. Through the hallway, come across the bedroom, where a studio-style design presents a king-size bed. This cosy room offers garden views from its beautiful chapel windows, and overhead beams provide a comfortable, lived-in feel. Here, you can relax on the sofa or have a great night's rest after a day of adventures. Freshen up in the modern shower room.

Outside, the small patio is ample for romantic dinners courtesy of the handy BBQ. Watch the wildlife and soak in the peace as you sip a cup of tea or read a few pages of your book. The property benefits from two parking spaces and can be booked alongside three other properties that sleep a further 11 guests.
