Welcome to our beautiful 1703 townhouse, lovingly restored in 2026.

Step back in time without compromising on comfort in this beautifully refurbished Grade II listed townhouse, dating back to 1703 and nestled in the heart of Shipston-on-Stour.

Full of historic character and thoughtful modern touches, the house combines original period features, rich colours and stylish interiors with everything you need for a relaxing and memorable stay. Whether you’re gathering with family, catching up with friends or exploring the Cotswolds or Stratford upon Avon, it’s a wonderful base to make yourself at home.

Arranged over three floors, the house has plenty of space for groups of up to 10 guests. Expect charming period details, beautiful wooden floors, cosy corners and a welcoming atmosphere, with contemporary comforts throughout.

The heart of the house is the inviting living space, where the characterful inglenook fireplace creates a lovely focal point. It’s the perfect place to put your feet up after a day exploring, enjoy a glass of something delicious or settle in for an evening together.

The kitchen is well appointed and finished to a high standard, providing a lovely space to prepare breakfast, cook a family meal or gather around the table. There are smart TVs in the kitchen and living room (you will need to log in to your usual streaming services) and a Bluetooth speaker in the kitchen for use during your stay. With fast Wi-Fi and the practical essentials for a comfortable stay, the house is equally suited to a weekend away or a longer visit.

The house has four bedrooms and a pop up ‘bed in a box’ in the living room.

* Bedroom 1: A comfortable king-size bed on the first floor.
* Bedroom 2: A comfortable king-size bed on the first floor.
* Bedroom 3: A comfortable king-size bed on the second floor.
* Bedroom 4: Two single beds on the second floor.
* Living room: A small double sofa bed provides additional sleeping space. We can set this up before your arrival, or leave the bedding so that you can make full use of the living room during the day - just let us know your preference.

There are two bathrooms in the property, finished to a contemporary standard to complement the character of the house. The ground floor bathroom has a large walk-in shower and heated towel radiator. The spacious first floor bathroom houses an elegant freestanding bath and large walk-in shower.

One of the loveliest things about staying here is the location. You’re right in the centre of Shipston-on-Stour, with independent shops, cafés, traditional pubs and local amenities just a short stroll away.

The town makes a wonderful base for discovering the North Cotswolds, with its picturesque villages, countryside walks, historic market towns and excellent places to eat and drink. You can enjoy the convenience of being in town while having the wider Cotswolds and Warwickshire countryside within easy reach.

A few things to know before you arrive:
This is a genuine historic townhouse, so part of its charm lies in its original character. The house is arranged over three floors, with winding period staircases, so guests should be comfortable using stairs. Many of the rooms retain their beautiful original elm floorboards; as you might expect in a 300-year-old property, some floors are uneven and can feel a little draughty underfoot, so we recommend packing your favourite slippers for a cosy stay!

As with many historic town-centre properties, the layout and features reflect the age of the building rather than a modern, purpose-built house.

We want you to feel at home from the moment you arrive, with the perfect balance of historic charm, stylish comfort and a fantastic town-centre location.

We hope you love staying here as much as we love sharing it with you.
