About this property
Welford-on-Avon 1.2 miles and Stratford- Upon-Avon - 3.4 miles. Nestled just outside of Welford-On-Avon, Warwickshire, is this bright and spacious, mid-terrace barn conversion of The Wheat House. With three bedrooms sleeping up to six guests, this dog-friendly dwelling is suitable for families hoping to explore a historic region of England, whilst having everything they need for a self-catering holiday. Enter through the gated entrance to find yourself in lovely, rural surroundings where your home from home awaits with off-road parking. Inside, a contemporary kitchen is ready for you to prepare your best home-cooked meals with an electric oven and hob, microwave, and fridge/freezer; there's even a dishwasher and washing machine, so cleaning up will be an easy task! Set up the breakfast bar for four to tuck into a hearty breakfast, whilst a formal dining area for six is close by in the open-plan living/dining room. Why not follow with a cold beverage in your private garden overlooking the surrounding fields in the evening sun? The space is fully enclosed and dog-friendly for canines and kids to play on the lawn. When it's time to relax, retreat inside where leather seats invite you to unwind with a family-favourite on the Freeview TV and the ground floor has a handy cloakroom, whilst upstairs you can hang your towel on the heated rail and soak in the tub or step under the shower head. You'll find three beautiful bedrooms, a king-size, a double with a walk-in shower, and a twin, each with original beams and contemporary furnishings. Start your holiday by exploring your surroundings, whether that's a round of golf at Welford-On-Avon Golf Course, or wandering into the picturesque Welford-on-Avon for dinner at the Shakespeare Inn or The Bell Inn, a 17th-century property with open fires and a bear garden. The medieval market town of Stratford-upon-Avon is a short drive away or a shorter cycle ride away where attractions such as Shakespeare's Birthplace, Anne Hathaway's Cottage, and Stratford Butterfly Farm bring tourists in all year-round; the little ones are sure to love Magic Alley, a quirky shop with plenty of curious items for Harry Potter fans! If you're looking for a day in the great outdoors, you'll have the Cotswolds within easy reach. Discover the 20th-century gardens of Hidcote, climb to the top of Dover's Hill for scenic views, and be sure to stop at Chipping Campden. This picture-postcard, Cotswolds market town is home to a historic Market Hall, St James' Church, and plenty of tearooms and rustic pubs. The Wheat House is an ideal base for anyone looking to explore the Heart of England and the Cotwolds. On the door step Straford-Upon-Avon offers a fantastic range of cafe's and street restaurants as you walk down to the beautiful river Avon. Also near by is the amazing Stratford -Upon-Avon garden centre and the antiques barn which offers light bites and proper coffee.

Nice views and perfect for the dog with access to own and communal garden. Kids liked seeing the local sheep and cows! Great location near to Stratford and pubs. The layout was nicer than I expected with open plan living and dining across the back, so lovely big room for everyone to be together. Would go back.
