About this property
Welcome to Shakespear's Shoes, a lovingly refurbished, single-storey barn conversion with outstanding views of the Warwickshire countryside. Offering boutique style luxury accommodation as well as the opportunity to have 5 star catering when you need it, makes this a perfect rural retreat for couples and families to enjoy all year round.
This stunning, family run barn conversion has been tastefully and lovingly restored to provide a luxurious boutique feel throughout. Dating from circa 1870, exposed beams and vaulted ceilings seamlessly merge with a modern, fully fitted, well-equipped kitchen and a lavish bathroom complete with slipper bath and large walk-in rainfall shower. Egyptian cotton sheets on pocket sprung mattresses ensure a good night's sleep after a day exploring local attractions of The Cotswolds, Stratford-Upon-Avon, Warwick, Leamington Spa and Cheltenham, to name but a few.
Each window in the barn offers outstanding, uninterrupted views across the Warwickshire countryside and french doors from the open-plan living area lead out to your very own private enclosed rear garden, ideal for small children and dogs.
Guests also have exclusive access to a covered barn with furnished living and dining areas, a hammock, outdoor wood burner, ceramic egg barbecue, fire pit and pizza oven so you can enjoy alfresco dining or just simply relaxing, whatever the weather.
For those who want the ultimate 5 star experience, your host Adam offers guests the option of having a full or partially catered holiday. A fully trained chef with over 30 years experience, Adam can prepare anything from afternoon tea to a six course fine dining experience. For the more adventurous, if you would like to improve or extend your culinary skills, why not treat yourself to one of Adam's bespoke cookery workshops which can be booked as a full or half day experience.

We have a fabulous stay at Shakespeares shoes. Sonia and Adam were both very welcoming and helpful and gave us lots of suggestions of local things to do. The location is beautiful and private but also close to both Stratford upon Avon and the Cotswolds. We would happily return and recommend to family and friends as a great place to stay. Even for little ones we took our 16 month old and Sonia and Adam had prepared a cotbed and highchair for him. Thanks for being a great host.

We have just returned from a fabulous long weekend at Shakespeare Shoes. Sonia and Adam could not have done any more to make our stay absolutely perfect Shakespeare’s Shoes location is quiet and tranquil while also being central for stratford upon Avon and local shops and farm shop. The welcome we received from Sonia and Adam was second to none, they went out of their way to ensure that we felt at home. The conversion is expertly crafted the kitchen, bathroom are all well equipped and the seating areas and bedroom are all decorated exquisitely. The outside areas are again amazing from the lovely open barn with bbq pizza oven heaters, lights log burners, relaxing music there is no reason not to stay chilled out there all night. For sun lovers there is the south facing garden all fenced in (perfect for children and dogs) not that we had either but everything has been thought of by Sonia and Adam. The bonus is not having to worry about anything everything has been thought for the most perfect break. On the Saturday evening we experienced Adam’s professional Michelin restaurant BBQ I cannot begin to describe how exquisite and tasty the whole menu was, Adam is passionate about food and this is apparent when you enjoy all the exceptional dishes. Definitely experience some of Adams culinary delights whilst staying at Shakespeare’s shoes. Thank you Sonia and Adam you are the perfect hosts we will definitely be visiting again, the complete experience was 5* and more.

The barn is super comfortable and the pizza oven, bbq and outdoor space the cherry on top. We had a great stay and enjoyed making the most of the facilities.
