About this house rental

Wharf Stables sits in the grounds of the private residence known as 'The Wharf' alongside Stratford-on-Avon Navigation Canal in the village of Wilmcote. Mary Arden's House, where Shakespeare's mother lived, is one of the major attractions in the area and is situated some 400 metres from the holiday let.
The village is also conveniently situated for those wishing to explore the Cotswolds, Warwick, Kenilworth and surrounding areas, in addition to enjoying the Shakespearian experience in Stratford-upon-Avon. Warwick Castle is one of the best preserved medieval castles in Britain..
The holiday let is a conversion of an old stone stable block. It was originally used in early 19th century for keeping the ponies used for pulling the carts from the Wilmcote quarry to the quay.
The accommodation consists of 2 bedrooms, one king size bed, and a super king with an option to split to 2 singles. Both bedrooms have en-suites (one with a bath). The holiday let comes complete with necessary fixtures to make your stay enjoyable. Including wifi, dishwasher, 42 inch TV with freeview, radio with USB and bluetooth, freezer and washer/dryer. It is fully centrally heated with heated towel rails and gas effect stove.
Wilmcote has good access to Stratford and, if you wish, the train is 5 minutes walk away. Walk down the towpath or jump on the sightseeing bus that runs regularly between the Shakespearean tourist attractions.
There is a general store in the village, a public house and St. Andrews Church.

This was our third visit here and as before, had everything we needed for a lovely stay. It's situated by the canal in the peaceful village of Wilmcote, with easy access to bus stops, the railway station and the canal tow path.There are lots of local footpaths to explore the area and you can even walk into Stratford upon Avon from here.Would highly recommend for comfort, facilities, and ambience.

What can we say that hasn't been said before? Everything was absolutely top drawer! Attention to detail, beautiful and convenient location, imaculate, comfortable bed and great shower water pressure. We would definitely return, when/if in the area again.

Magical location on canal. Watching the longboats go by the beautiful picture windows is a real treat. It’s very country so a bit of country mud is too be expected. We will happily return
