What our customers say about their holidays

  Overall it was a really nice place, and friendly and helpful owners.

  We really enjoyed ourselves. Just a few suggestions for the future: Having a really good internet connection is so important these days, especially with the covid-19 pandemic. People want to work from home and when on holiday, and some will rent a place simply to work the whole week, as a break from home. So while we eventually got the internet to work, (the difficulty was that the security password wasn't written down accurately) we weren't sure how reliable it was. I would put some effort in to make sure it is reliable and fast and can then be advertised on the listing as a feature. We had to ask if internet was available when booking - it should be seen as a key feature. A clearer and cleaner sign at the entrance to the farm would make a better initial impression than the current one, and perhaps a few arrows as you near the buildings to direct you to the cottages. We found them OK, but it was a bit of guesswork the first time. But overall a great place to stay

  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.

  We had a really wonderful week in this lovely, clean, well appointed cottage.

  Very comfy chairs & footstools in the lounge. There was everything in the kitchen that you could possibly need, with quality cutlery/crockery etc.& a lovely welcome tray. The bedding & towels, were beautiful, all top quality. A nice bedroom, overlooking the garden with a very comfortable bed & separate spacious dressing room. A beautiful bathroom & shower. A lovely quiet, well looked after garden, with new garden furniture for dining outdoors, & dappled shade if needed. It was a quiet area, with a short cut through walk to the river Avon & Stratford town centre. Lovely walks along the river, lots to see & do. Parking on the driveway. This is the nicest self catering holiday accommodation we have ever had, a very pleasant surprise. If we could give this cottage higher than 10 we would. Thank you for a lovely holiday. Sandra

  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.
