Masons Court is a remarkable example of a medieval Wealden Hall, situated in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, within the picturesque region of the Heart of England. This historic property, built in 1482, is recognized as the oldest house in the town and retains many of its original features, including two stunning 16th-century wall paintings. Visitors will appreciate the prime location, just a short walk from notable attractions such as Shakespeare's birthplace, the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, and the scenic River Avon, alongside a variety of restaurants and bars that enhance the vibrant atmosphere of this lively market town.
The property comfortably accommodates up to six guests across three beautifully refurbished bedrooms. The modern amenities include a well-equipped kitchen and two bathrooms, complemented by contemporary decor that harmonizes with the home's historic charm. The interior boasts a flagstoned dining room with 16th-century oak paneling, a spacious living area featuring an Inglenook fireplace with a wood-burner, and original oak beams that add to the character of the space. The bathrooms offer luxurious touches, including a freestanding copper bathtub and a large walk-in shower, ensuring a comfortable stay for all visitors.
Each bedroom has its unique charm; the master bedroom features a 16th-century fireplace and a raised wooden platform area, while the second bedroom is a cozy oak-beamed space with a double bed. The third bedroom, also small and inviting, includes an original mullion window and has a private entrance from the landing. Although these rooms are separated by a historic wooden panel wall, guests should be mindful that sounds may carry between them. Outside, the enclosed walled courtyard garden, highlighted by a 200-year-old Mulberry bush, offers a serene space for relaxation and dining.
Masons Court provides guests with private access to the entire home, which is part of a larger Wealden Hall divided into four distinct residences. While the courtyard garden is a shared space, each property has its designated area. The host is available for assistance, with local contacts nearby to help address any immediate needs. Guests should note the property's medieval character, which includes low doors and uneven floors, potentially posing challenges for those with mobility issues. To ensure a peaceful environment, noise should be minimized after 11 PM, and a strict no smoking policy is enforced, with battery-operated candles provided for ambiance. The location offers a blend of cultural experiences and outdoor adventures, making Masons Court a unique and inviting destination for visitors to Stratford-upon-Avon.
