STRATFORD UPON AVON

Steeped in culture and history,  the birthplace of England's greatest poet and playwright, Stratford-upon-Avon is still an important market town in Warwickshire. Many of the original houses from Shakespeare's time are still in excellent condition, being preserved by the Shakespeare organisation. The fine old buildings, the characteristically wide streets and the tranquil flowing River Avon make Stratford-upon-Avon a delight to visit.

BROUGHTON CASTLE

A local gem, still the home of the Fiennes Family and occupied by the 21st Baron Lord Saye & Sele and his wife. Located just 10 minutes drive from the Hotel & well worth the visit.
