‘Brassknocker Cottage’ is a delightfully quirky and lovingly restored 17th century stone cottage which has been around since Shakespeare’s time! Having undergone an extensive refurbishment programme, this high specification, characterful holiday cottage is full of olde world charm, enjoying a lovely and convenient location, close to excellent pubs, and many visitor attractions.

The property is situated on the edge of the historic village of Binton; just 4 miles from Stratford upon Avon and is surrounded by open countryside, with wonderful walking right on the doorstep. This beautifully presented, pet-friendly accommodation simply oozes character with original beams, cooking range with wood burning stove, stone walls and flagstone floors – There’s even a well in the garden which used to serve the local hamlet!

As you might expect from a four hundred-year-old property, there are plenty of nooks and crannies, a sloping ceiling or two, a couple of low doorways and barrow loads of character. The cottage’s lovely winding staircase incorporates a rope bannister, so may not be suitable for very small children, toddlers or those who are infirm or have mobility issues. The shower room is beautifully equipped, but due to the limited proportions of the room the shower cubicle is a 700 x 700 corner model (so may be a little snug if you are on the well-proportioned side!)

Refurbished to a very high standard, yet still retaining much of its old world charm, Brassknocker Cottage provides luxurious character accommodation in a convenient location and is just a few minutes walk from the highly regarded historic country pub The Blue Boar Inn, which offers excellent ales and home cooked food in its bar and restaurant.
