  Quaint,very picturesque Tudor property.

  Extremely well presented.. All the amenities of home. parking space to the rear with plenty of room. A short walk around the corner you enter a short gated walk way into a well laid out. sunny patio area. In through the front door The kitchen and living area all together as you enter. All you need for any home cooking. Plenty of pans and dishes and a few nice touches like small pails for egg cups and patterned cups.. Modern fitted kitchen with electric hob and oven, Small fridge freezer ,microwave cooker and washer/dryer.. Nice sharp knives and decent cutlery. The living area had a 3 seat leather sofa and 2 soft fabric chairs facing the chimney breast. A nice stock of books ,games and local information in the book case. A table and 4chairs that can be extended underneath the leaded window.. Up the small staircase to the carpeted hallway with loads of storage and head room. Bathroom facing, again modern with a bit of classic thrown in. Nice big shower and separate free standing cast iron bath, sink and toilet , leaded window. Large bedroom to the right with wardrobe side tables and chest of drawers. Very comfortable bed. Angled ceiling to the front. leaded window. across the landing , bedroom 2. large room with hanging rail and chest of drawers. Single bed underneath the window and another underneath the eves.. Loads of headroom upstairs, not so much downstairs with character original beams and white painted plaster throughout. Well planned, out and very clean in every aspect . Near to all the history of Stratford. Shops and pubs/ eateries within walking distance. We only used the car once while here . I would recommend this place to anyone .Communication with the agent was excellent. Everything you could wish for in a short break or longer at any time of year. Thankyou for a great vacation home.

  There is no doubt that Masons Court is a wonderful historic building in a very convenient location.

  The courtyard was a bonus, and safe for our little dog, as long as other resident’s didn’t leave the gate open. I’m afraid I have to agree with the previous reviewer about the level of comfort. The bed is the most uncomfortable I’ve ever slept in! The kitchen area is very small, which I didn’t mind, but it was so cluttered that it was difficult to prepare even the simplest of meals (usually breakfast, we ate out most nights). Also, I had to wash one of the oven trays 3 times and cover it in foil before I could use it. All of the taps wobble, and need attention. Not major issues, but none the less need to be addressed. This is the 4th. holiday cottage that we have stayed in this year, in different parts of the country, although we love Stratford-upon-Avon, (we lived here in the early eighties), I’m not sure that we would stay at 1, Masons Court when we next visit.

  We have stayed here before and the property is lovely, but a few things let it down this time.

  The patio area was unavailable because the building work at the adjacent property had damaged the fence and made it inaccessible. This was one of our main reasons for choosing the property so we notified the management company but heard nothing back. The heating was set uncomfortably high (22C) and we kept turning the thermostat down but couldn’t reset it, and so each time it was timed to come in, it whizzed back up to 22C. I kept meaning to call the housekeeper, but was only reminded when the heating got hot (5.30 am or when we got home in the evening, so too early or too late to call).The bathroom ceiling is peeling, understandable with such and old property, but not very nice. Grateful for the season ticket for parking, but had a bit of trouble working out to to put it in the machine, would welcome some clearer instructions next time.

  Absolutely superlative.

  Perfect if you really want to be away from it all. The roads are narrow, but largely without traffic, Pubs and Shops are a car drive away. Kington about 8 minutes away has fresh fish, veg and a delicatessen, All brilliant and The Swan Inn and The Boat good Pub Grub. Brilliant walks everywhere and really recommend Westonbury Water Garden. Ludlow and Ha-on-Wye well worth a visit. But the Mill itself is comfortable and extremely well appointed, first place we have ever been where we didn't have to buy a cork screw, it even had a toast rack! The hospitality extended by Grace and Dick was exemplary, But all this is crowned by the abundance of wildlife on the bank of the river right outside the door! You must go to belief it.

  The property was beautiful and excellently located.

  Being the oldest dwelling house in Stratford, it had character, charm and many interesting details. The beds were comfortable and both the bath and shower were easy to use with plenty of hot water. The ceilings were very low which might be worth considering for those who are tall. The fridge unfortunately did not work well and leaked water and the ice box did not work at all. We had very hot weather during our stay and so would have felt the benefit of a more reliable fridge. Overall we very much enjoyed the week. Parking was well arranged and we were able to leave the car in the parking provided and walk around Stratford. Would recommend this cottage to anyone visiting Stratford for a break.
