Holiday cottages in Warwickshire

As a cottage holiday destination Warwickshire is perhaps best known for Stratford-upon-Avon the birthplace of William Shakespeare, but it has some very picturesque countryside to its north, impressive castles at Kenilworth and Warwick, the city of Coventry, Rugby – home to the game and to the famous Rugby School – and a choice of cathedrals, stately homes and scenic waterways.

If your target is Stratford-upon-Avon and Shakespeare country be aware that Stratford itself is probably second only to London as a tourist attraction, you might be better taking a holiday cottage in one of the many charming villages around Stratford than in the town itself.

Typical Warwickshire holiday cottages

Tudor timber framed buildings are a feature of Warwickshire and you'll find theses on offer as holiday accommodation. If you take one of these attractive, traditional and often thatched, black and white cottages for your holiday be aware of their age and be prepared for low ceilings, beams, steep staircases, uneven surfaces and small rooms. You'll no doubt find that the owners have upgraded them as far as possible to bring them in line with modern holiday cottages, but check what facilities are available before you book.

Many more recent houses and cottages will also be on offer, from Cotswold stone cottages in the south of Warwickshire to barn conversions and farmhouses in rural areas.
