Rectory Cottage
Welcome to Rectory Cottage, a brilliant countryside retreat just outside of the historic town of Stratford-upon-Avon. Sat in the heart of Shakespeare country, this fabulous cottage is surrounded by gorgeous countryside and is a perfect getaway for four.
An inviting open plan living space welcomes you as you enter, complete with a fantastic Smart TV and a cosy wood-burning stove for the winter months. The sitting-room itself is beautifully decorated, with luxurious wallpaper and wooden features surrounding a gorgeous centrepiece fireplace. A charming dining-table is tucked into the corner of the room next to some fabulous period decorations. This spot is perfect for cosy suppers after a big day out and about.
Next door you'll discover the homely kitchen which has everything you'll need to cook up some delicious meals while you're on holiday, with an electric hob and oven, microwave, fridge/freezer and a dishwasher all tucked into the kitchen's delightful cabinets. In the mornings enjoy a warming cup of coffee on the lovely wooden table before setting out on your adventures for the day.
Downstairs you will also find a hidden door behind a curtain that leads through to the helpful owners' house which is next door. However, rest assured, this door is locked and the owners will always respect your privacy.
Upstairs there are two fabulous bedrooms provide to rest your weary heads after a busy day exploring. In the centre of the main bedroom sits a luxurious king-size bed which guarantees a great night's sleep. Wake to the crisp morning sun creeping in through the charming window and wander over to the fabulous en suite bathroom, which is accessible and shared by both bedrooms. The other bedroom is a delightful twin room that is great for little ones and adults alike.
Also at the top of the stairs, overlooking the stunning countryside, is an adorable little snug which is perfect for losing yourself in your favourite book when you need a little peace and quiet.
Outside is a wonderful outdoor seating area providing the ideal place for a spot of al fresco dining in the summer evenings. There is also private parking for two cars.

Colonel (R) Horne
Restful stay, hope to return. Great cottage with full amenities, restful setting, lovely views, the welcome cake on arrival was a delightful surprise. Highly recommended.
Ms Stoneman
Rectory Cottage is a lovely place to stay, The cottage is very comfortable and very well-equipped. We would recommend the cottage as an excellent holiday destination for a couple or a small family group.
Mr Miller
A lovely cottage in a lovely village with good footpaths leading around the countryside and into Stratford too. The owners were lovely and very helpful. The cottage itself seemed more spacious than it looked from the outside photographs. Although in the real countryside with sheep looking over the fence, it was only a minute's drive to a Waitrose Supermarket. The Bell Inn, a couple of miles south, was a really lovely pub for a meal. The cottage was comfortable and well-equipped. We really enjoyed our stay.
Mrs Rhodes
Very well equipped and located close to Stratford on Avon.
Mrs Hill
Would thoroughly recommend Rectory Cottage as a place to stay. Warwick and Stratford are within very easy reach and lots of places to explore nearby - we would certainly stay again if returning to the area.
Mevrouw Robben
Ontzettend leuke en typisch Engels ingerichte cottage, van alle gemakken voorzien! Leuke en goede tips van de eigenaar gehad om de omgeving te verkennen! (Very nice and typical English furnished cottage, fully equipped! Nice and good tips from the owner to explore the area!)
Mr Bradbury
This was our first stay at Rectory Cottage and we’d love to return. The cottage is very well equipped, the overall cleanliness is excellent and the the owners took the time to chat to make sure everything was good and were on hand with information but were not intrusive. There was a lovely cake waiting for us on arrival and the kitchen had plenty of condiments allowing us to selfcater for our first night although the nearby New Inn also does very nice meals and is within easy walking distance. The log fire was most welcome to return home to after chilly days out during some chilly January weather. The location is good for visiting Stratford and some interesting National Trust properties.
Mrs Mokes
Warm and cosy cottage, good location for travelling to the local villages, Pub a 2 minute walk which serves good food and they allow the dog in the bar area. Secure parking and easy access.
