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, 2 public houses and St. Andrews Church. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near a hospital - Near the marina ### Things to do - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 753 square feet ## Similar properties ![](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34050000/34050000/34049978/44b4adf5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Heron View Riverside Retreat in Peaceful Rural Hamlet near Roman Town, Alcester Oversley Green, Alcester - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 175 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-26&endDate=2025-11-27&selected=34049978&PinnedHotelID=34049978&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/37890000/37887400/37887356/07ae0db0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Lily Pad Riverside Apartment Bidford-on-Avon - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 104 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-26&endDate=2025-11-27&selected=37887356&PinnedHotelID=37887356&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32930000/32926000/32925951/7ebb73fc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 2 bedroom accommodation in Aston Cantlow, near Stratford Aston Cantlow, near Stratford - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 9.8 Exceptional 10 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-26&endDate=2025-11-27&selected=32925951&PinnedHotelID=32925951&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/43000000/42530000/42520400/42520348/3776c9ea.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Lodge at Kiftsgate Court Gardens Chipping Campden - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor space - Parking available 9.8 Exceptional 29 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-26&endDate=2025-11-27&selected=42520348&PinnedHotelID=42520348&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107760000/107753600/107753599/569df2bc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Poppy Cottage - Cosy 2BD Home, Perfect For Family Clifford Chambers - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-26&endDate=2025-11-27&selected=107753599&PinnedHotelID=107753599&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91950000/91940400/91940303/6d651845.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Light and airy stylish barn conversion set in peaceful countryside.
