We had a really lovely stay - the cottage suited our needs perfectly! Very central to town, with great walks along the canal - we will definitely return.

We have had the most wonderful week and even the weather has been kind. The cottage was perfect, Stratford and the surrounding area is packed with lots to do and we had some lovely walks along the canal towpath to Wilmcote for lunch. We will definitely be making a return trip!

We stayed at Kerns Cottage for a week and loved every minute. The house is so well cared for, clean, and well equipped. The location is perfect for exploring all that Stratford has to offer - we would especially recommend Tudor World, Magic Alley, and the Butterfly Farm. Every pub/restaurant we visited was dog friendly with lovely service. By the end of our week coming back to Kerns after days out felt like coming home. If we visit Stratford again then we won't hesitate to book here - thanks so much!

Guest review on TripAdvisor


We would have stayed another week at Kerns Cottage, had we had the time! We were delighted with the cottage. The layout and decor were brilliant and everything was clean and well cared for. Could not believe how central it was and yet so quiet. The Canal walk was a bonus for my husband and Mr. Spike who walked it every morning. It was so nice to be able to relax in the lounge after a hard day of sightseeing or shopping. The courtyard garden was a lovely sun trap and we sat out and relaxed there with our coffee on a few occasions. A bonus was on-site parking and everything felt so safe. The staff at Exclusively Warwickshire were efficient and helpful as was the owner. We would not hesitate in staying again when we are in the area.
