Alison July 2024

“Valentines' Cottage is beautifully appointed.”

Every last detail of the decoration has been carefully designed making every room perfect for a luxurious, special visit to Stratford on Avon. It's very easy walking distance to Henley Street (Shakespeare Birthplace Trust) and to the centre of town and the theatre and yet a haven away from the bustle. Sarah's care for us during our stay was also outstanding, ensuring that arrangements for parking were in place. I cannot think of anywhere better to escape to. Thank you very much, Sarah.

- Alison, July 2024

Thank you Alison. I’m glad you had such a lovely anniversary at Valentines. We would love to see you back soon! Property Owner

“We had a lovely stay at Valentines Cottage.”

Everything was comfortable and really well appointed for a short holiday (including a lovely welcome gift).

Thank you!

Thank you Sarah. It was a pleasure to have you stay with us. Property Owner

“Great cottage in a good location for the town centre.”

We really enjoyed walking along the canal into town, the canal is within a minutes walk from the cottage. The cottage is well equipped, warm, and we had no issues with parking. We used the railway station a couple of times, this is a 10 min walk away. Overall we had a good break.

“Valentine Cottage was a fabulous property.”

From the moment we stepped inside we felt at home and Sarah had kindly left us some gifts to help us settle in and enjoy the start of our holiday. Everything has been thought of in furnishing the property. A big bonus was the location and the town centre was a very short walk away. We wouldn’t hesitate in booking again in the future.

Thank you Brenda, it makes it all worthwhile when we have fabulous guests too! Property Owner

Gillian June 2023

“The perfect place for us.”

Apart from being cosy, clean and comfortable with everything we needed and more, the cottage is also perfectly placed. The railway station is just a 5/10 minute walk, with a large supermarket right next to it to get basic supplies for the week. The town centre again just 5 minutes away with easy access to all of the Shakespeare places of interest, the local shops, numerous eateries and pubs, and the waterside and theatre. Highly recommended.

- Gillian, June 2023
Janice June 2023

“Valentines cottage exceeded all our expectations.”

It offered a comfortable atmosphere and excellent facilities, within easy walking distance of Stratford town centre. What truly stood out were the thoughtful touches, including dog toys and treats provided for our canine companion Minstrel. The hospitality provided by our host, Sarah, was exceptional. She was quick to respond to any inquiries and ensured our stay was comfortable and memorable. Her attention to detail and genuine care made a significant difference. We heartily recommend Valentines cottage and will certainly book another break there in the future.

- Janice, June 2023
Pam June 2023

“Lovely, well equipped cottage.”

Perfect situation for the Shakespear's attractions. We enjoyed being able to walk around the area using the tow paths accessed very close to the cottage. We arrived by train and the station was only a few minutes away and used the regular bus service to reach Leamington Spa and Warwick.

- Pam, June 2023

- Clive, March 2023
Peter February 2023

“The description was accurate, we were able to walk into the town centre and Shakespeare's Birthplace was only about 4 minutes away on foot.”

We drove past a large Tesco's on the main road form the M40 and just yards form the house, one visit took us through the week as there are so many restaurants all within 5-10 minutes from the house. Would recommend to anyone visiting the town or the Theatre; we will certainly return in the future - very highly recommended.

- Peter, February 2023
Laura February 2023

“Really enjoyed our stay very well decorated clean & tidy lovely home feel to the place parking was not an issue always managed to park with the free parking pass.”

Margaret September 2022

“Had a lovely stay in Valentines Cottage.”

Very clean and comfortable, the wine and chocolates etc., were an unexpected bonus. Really handy for sightseeing in Stratford, points of interest and shops a short walk away. We had a lovely Boat trip on the river. Shakespeare's House, Anne Hathaway's cottage, the Mad Museum a little light relief from History. Nice walks along the Canal. Plenty of choice of eateries. When you wanted to put your feet up, Valentines Cottage, was a relaxing place to stay, with lots of little special touches, to make your stay enjoyable.

- Margaret, September 2022
Keith September 2022

“I loved Valentine's cottage.”

We had everything we needed, and it was very close to the town and the River Avon, with some lovely walks. Tesco is just a short distance from the cottage and there are many other stores just a short distance away; and very handy if you have a wet day. We will definitely visit again we loved Valentine's and Stratford

- Keith, September 2022
Lorna July 2022

“My husband and I had a lovely holiday in Valentine's Cottage in mid July.”

Unfortunately the first few days were during the heatwave which did prevent us doing our usual tour of the Cotswold villages. We were pleasantly surprised to find the owner had provided a couple of quality fans in the bedrooms which proved essential. The property was lovely and clean and had everything we required and some lovely welcome items were left for us. The owner very helpful and pleasant - on hand but not obtrusive. We would certainly be very happy to return to Valetines Cottage.

- Lorna, July 2022

- Yvette, July 2022
Bryan July 2022

“A fantastic property in the perfect location for exploring Stratford-upon-Avon.”

Valentines cottage was clean, comfortable and felt just like a home away from home. The property is a very short walk from the town centre - so much so that we parked the car on our arrival and didn't use it again until we were leaving to come home!

- Bryan, July 2022
Jan June 2022

“Beautiful 2 bedroomed house, comfortable, spacious and very well resourced.”

Only a few minutes walk to the town centre and down to the Waterfront. The canal towpath is on the doorstep too enabling a scenic walk to the Waterfront and has a well cared for proper footpath. A parking permit allowed us to park roadside outside the house. Plenty of cafes, coffee shops, restaurants and pubs an easy walk away. We ate in the Dirty Duck at the Waterfront- which was very good . Also ate at the The One Elm which is very close to Valentines Cottage and was also good. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and hope to stay again before too long.

- Jan, June 2022

Paul March 2022

“Valentines cottage had a very welcoming feel as soon as we walked in.”

It is beautifully furnished and very well equipped. Also, all the ‘extras’ - chocolates, wine , biscuits etc was a lovely thought - Thankyou. The cottage is extremely well located , parking was no problem right outside the cottage using the permit provided. Valentines is a two minute walk from Stratford where there are lots of pubs and tea shops etc , lovely parks and river walks . Perfect for a quiet restful break. Would definitely recommend.

- Paul, March 2022
Alexis February 2022

“Cons: Bathroom above eating area not very soundproof but you can relocate to the living room and/or resort to humour :) Pros: Lots of pros.”

Super clean. Very comfortable abode. A welcoming and cozy retreat after the day. Alternatively a cozy nest if you need to huddle down for a rest day. Very attractive and thoughtful decor. All bits and pieces you require in the kitchen for a quiet dinner at home. Easy walking access to the town center...walk about half a block, cross over the main road and onwards. Café eating within minutes. The host Sarah was most welcoming and easily contactable if required.

- Alexis, February 2022

Roger December 2021

“Valentines was a brilliant place to stay in order to access New Year in Stratford on Avon and the wonderful light trail at Blenheim Palace.”

The cottage was spotlessly clean and tidy and very warm when needed. Everything was as listed and all the Christmas decorations had been left up which was very much appreciated. I would not hesitate to book again in the future.

- Roger, December 2021
Gerardine December 2021

“Valentines cottage was an absolute joy.”

It was a difficult time for us as we had to attend a funeral during our stay but from the moment we stepped inside...it was like getting a big consoling cuddle.Every care had been taken to make Valentines welcoming and it was full of festive cheer and festive smells from the pot poured.The Christmas tree was up and all the decorations.Even the doggie basket was festive!There were chocs and wine for us and treats for the doggies too.Most of all the cleanliness was exceptional and this was very reassuring as my husband has a compromised immune system.It was so warm,comfortable and cosy throughout.Just lovely.Plenty of croc,glasses and equipment in the kitchen too which although should be a given isn't always the case.Needless to say apart from the comfort and warmth of the cottage the location of Valentines is great.We parked the car and didn't use it again until we left.Top marks.Thank you.

- Gerardine, December 2021
Sheri November 2021

“We loved our stay at Valentine Cottage.”

The house felt like a real home from home, we were able to relax in comfortable surroundings and despite the cold temperatures outside we were toasty warm. We enjoyed a variety of welcome treats and our host was in touch by text offering support if we needed anything. The location was perfect for our Christmas shopping weekend in late November, a short stroll from the cottage to both the Independent and High Street stores in Stratford itself and the Maybird Retail Park with its larger stores. We left the car at home walked everywhere. Stratford is a lovely town, the house is in a great location, is well equipped and included a parking permit, the host is on hand if we needed anything (which we didn't). We definitely plan on returning.

- Sheri, November 2021

“The cottage was in an ideal location and we really enjoyed our break the one small problem I felt was we had really sunny weather when we went and we could only slightly open the cottage windows because of the positioning of the blinds.”

- Julie, September 2021

“Valentines Cottage was really lovely, cosy, clean and conveniently located for everything you would like to see or do in Stratford.”

Sarah was lovely and helpful and had organised milk and treats for us on arrival. There was even a treat + bed, blanket and teddies for the dog and it was great to find a place that allowed us to bring him along. Nice bathroom with good shower, parking permit for on street parking and Sarah only a phone call away if needed. All the Shakespeare sites, theatres, river, shopping and restaurants are within walking distance but the cottage is still in a quiet location. Lovely stay - will definitely consider again. Thank you!

- Josephine, August 2021
Martin August 2021

“Valentines cottage was in the perfect location, a stones throw away from Shakespeare’s birthplace.”

- Martin, August 2021
Andrew August 2021

“Valentines cottage was fabulous!”

It was such a lovely relaxing place to stay. Beautifully decorated, a home from home. Very well thought out from kitchen equipment, reading books, games for children, a lovely welcoming area for the dog (bed and bowls!). Immaculately clean and fresh, lovely big fluffy towels provided too! Another big plus is how close to the town and main attractions it was, hadn’t realised it was literally 2minutes walk! Great to not need the car, using the permit provided we could leave it outside the property during our stay. We also found the canal was easy to access close to the property for an alternative walk to and from town. Excellent communication from the owner, checked in with us before, during and after our stay to make sure we were ok and had everything we needed. Would highly recommend staying here.

- Andrew, August 2021
Sarah August 2021

“Thank you for a wonderful stay at Valentines Cottage, all of the extra touches really made a difference.”

Great location and beautifully decorated, thank you again!

- Sarah, August 2021
Judith August 2021

“Excellent accommodation, thoughtfully furnished, to a high standard.”

Host left lots of little treats from wine to shortbread and even toys and treats for the dog. It was very quiet, despite being so close to town and proximity to town is another obvious advantage. Host also provided a well stocked kitchen, including washing up liquid, laundry tablets, etc. Would not hesitate to recommend. During our staycation we visited Stratford town, several times, Birmingham for shopping, Coventry for the waterworld, Tamworth for Drayton Manor and the Everyman cinema in Stratford which is amazing.

- Judith, August 2021
Helen July 2021

“We had a wonderful few days staying in Stratford.”

Vicki May 2021

“What a fabulous holiday!”

! Valentine's Cottage was simply beautiful, so well presented with everything you'd need for an enjoyable stay. The treats were so thoughtful, even our dog wasn't left out, and there were numerous small touches throughout the house that showed Sarah and Steve really care about their guests experience. The house itself is just over the road from the town centre and about 10 minutes walk from the waters edge, with plenty of historical places, landmarks, cafes, restaurants and shops within easy reach. Even the large supermarket was less than a mile away so it was easy to stock up on essentials for our stay. The folder of information we found at the cottage was very helpful and we made use of the recommendations of places to see and places to eat. The All Fours was lovely for a Sunday roast! All in all, we had an amazing time and are truly grateful to Sarah and Steve for enabling us to have had such a perfect holiday, which was very much needed and thoroughly enjoyed!

- Vicki, May 2021
Melany April 2021

“Valentines Cottage is a lovely little house right in the centre of Stratford, but tucked away enough to have peace and quiet.”

You are literally 2 minutes walk from Shakespeare's Birthplace in the pretty pedestrianised Henley Street with all its interesting little shops and cafes with the added bonus of street entertainment thrown in. Pubs and restaurants are all within walking distance as is the Theatre and Bancroft gardens down by the river. The cottage is furnished beautifully and is very clean and comfortable. There was only the 2 of us (and our little dog) but a family of 4 would be just as comfortable. All in all, we had a perfect Bank Holiday weekend.

- Melany, April 2021
Eric April 2021

“Valentines is a lovely cosy cottage.”

The wine and chocolates from Sarah the owner waiting for us on arrival were a lovely touch and thoroughly appreciated! Also the dog treats for our dog Daisy! The location met all our expectations as we could walk into Stratford in minutes. We had a great week, loved the cottage and Stratford as there was lots to see and do. The weather was perfect so we got to see Stratford at its best with lots going on around the river. We really enjoyed our holiday and hope to return to Valentines again as it really was home from home and met all our needs.

- Eric, April 2021
Geoffrey April 2021

“Valentines cottage is a stunning property with it's decor and furnishings finished to an extremely high standard.”

It was spotlessly clean and I would be more than happy to live there myself! Sarah, the owner was extremely helpful responding to my emails and was also more than happy to speak to me over the telephone. There was a lovely bottle of wine and some chocs waiting for us on arrival as well as tea, coffe, sugar, milk and biscuits. We thought this was a really kind gesture. The cottage was also stocked with everyday essentials such as cleaning products, tin foil, kitchen roll, and some nice toiletries. The property is a five minute walk from the town centre and we didn't need to use our car at all for the duration of our stay. There were plenty of places to eat and drink as well as various supermarkets all close by. It was our first visit to Stratford-upon-Avon and we will definitely be returning to this lovely picturesque town. Valentines Cottage will be our first choice for self catering accommodation.

- Geoffrey, April 2021
Louise October 2020

“Valentines cottage is perfectly situated for a holiday in Stratford - just a few minutes walk from the centre.”

It's a lovely, well thought out cottage with every home comfort. Spotlessly clean, attractively decorated and very cosy with a well equipped kitchen, lovely comfortable lounge, spacious cosy bedrooms and a very good bathroom. The owner was very helpful and accommodating and very kindly left us some welcome treats of wine, chocolate, biscuits etc. We had a thoroughly relaxing weekend at Valentines cottage and would definitely book it again in future if visiting Stratford.

- Louise, October 2020
Emma September 2020

...is it possible to still claim that discount?

- Barry, September 2020
Brenda September 2020

“The cottage was very nice, homely and spotless.”

Lovely gesture of bottle of wine and chocolates and milk. It was great we could take our dog. It was just nice to chill out on an evening at the end of our day. Only 5 minutes walking into Stratford-upon-Avon. Great pubs, meals. We went to the church where Shakespeare was buried. 12-2 at the moment Monday to Thursday. Different times later. Worth a visit., We also went a boat for 40 minutes. We really had a great time. Definitely go again.

- Brenda, September 2020
Rachel August 2020

“10/10. Valentine Cottage is lovely.”
