The area is steeped in literary history, with Mary Arden's House, the childhood home of Shakespeare's mother, just a short 400-meter stroll away. Guests can immerse themselves in the Shakespearian experience while also enjoying easy access to the scenic Cotswolds, the historic towns of Warwick and Kenilworth, and other local attractions.
This vacation home is a beautifully converted stone stable block, originally used in the early 19th century to house ponies that transported goods from the Wilmcote quarry to the quay.
