About Stratford-upon-Avon


Take a trip to Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare and a market town rich in history. This riverside spot in Warwickshire is full of timber-framed buildings, traditional shops and cosy tea rooms.  

A break here blends heritage with ease, as everything is walkable and well-kept. On your coach holiday, enjoy the journeys with no stress over traffic or parking – you’ll roll straight into the heart of the town ready to explore. Whether it’s a short break to get a flavour of its charm or a slightly longer stay to delve deeper, Stratford-upon-Avon works well all year round, from summer strolls by the River Avon to quiet winter visits. 

We select hotels for their great comfort and handy locations, giving you a good base with the practicalities you need. Expect welcoming en-suite rooms and easy access to local sights, so you can fit plenty into your stay without long walks or extra travel.  

In addition to that, our breaks often include your breakfast and evening meal, meaning you don’t need to     worry about finding a place to eat.
