Villas In Stratford Upon Avon

What our customers say about their holidays

  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.

  Beautiful view, cosy and clean cottage.

  Warm welcome after no answer to the door, but he is a busy farmer so was understandable. Really enjoyed the dawn chorus and peace and quiet.log burner was lovely and plenty of kindling and logs provided by owner. Comfy bed with crisp clean sheets, fabulous waterfall shower and good reliable WiFi. Nothing we did not like. If I was to nit pick them welcome milk and some basic essentials would have been nice, miles from the nearest shop and after a very long drive the ability to make a cuppa would be appreciated by people less organised than us (we had taken our own). And instructions on using the oven etc( we figured it out after some faffing as we don't cook on electric ast home. Otherwise perfect and will visit again

  A lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and a warm welcome on arrival from the owner.

  Well equipped and plenty logs and kindling supplied for the woodburner which was fabulous. The bed was super comfy with crisp white linen and very warm and snug. Even though the cottage is on a working farm it is a very peaceful and relaxing location. The pub in the village at Clifford Chambers did a great carvery Sunday lunch but we preferred The Bell Inn at Welford for a couple of evening meals out. Plenty to do round and about or further afield. Bourton on the Water a favourite for us aswell as Stratford-upon-Avon itself and all things Shakespeare. The nearby garden centre made a great place for breakfast on our last day before our journey home. Overall an excellent cottage and on our "must return" list.

  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.
