Cottage vacation rentals in Old Stratford

Lovely, homely cottage in a great location for exploring the rest of the Cotswolds. The Killingworth Castle (cosy local gastropub) is just a 5 min walk away from the property. A perfect base for a long weekend in the country.

We had the most wonderful stay. The garden is absolutely amazing. If you have little ones, this place is the one! Adam was a wonderful host, so responsive and helpful. The house was super clean, everything was so easy to work/find. We would hesitate to stay here again. Brilliant value for money, we had the best time. Thank you again Adam and Hannah.

An absolute gem of a getaway, perfect place to rest and relax in idyllic countryside surroundings. Very comfy bed and such a cute little place. Wood Fired hot tub made star gazing pretty special. Would definitely book again.

Sally’s place felt like going through a portal into a magical garden. The house was so cozy with beautiful vintage decor and an amazing fireplace. The highlight of the trip was eating breakfast outside by the river and watch the ducks. And can’t forget about the lovely host Sally is! Always responsive and helpful with lots of good food and nature walks recommendations.

I can not recommend highly enough. My son and myself stayed for 3 nights, everything was exactly as described. We felt instantly at home. We shall be returning, many thanks for having us in your lovely lodge.

Peaceful, relaxing, removed but not remote, 40 minutes but home but felt like a proper little holiday. There were instructions on how to care for the property so you don't damage anything, and recommendations for places to go / things to see. I'd suggest my own for future visitors, Maxey's Farm Shop. This was a lovely place as a home base for adventures and relaxing afterwards, we will be bearing it in mind for future short breaks.

Home from a 1 night stay with my partner for his birthday and our 1 year old. The cottage is beautiful and so homely. Gorgeous interiors as if from Pinterest. very clean throughout. The hosts kindly accommodated a slightly earlier check in. Cot and linen provided for the baby. The bed is super comfy. Hot tub very clean and private garden is lovely, with a little fish pond which our daughter loved to watch. Ideal location for a relaxed stay with an excellent pub a couple minutes away.

This is a great base to explore Lincoln, Newark and Sherwood Forest. Lots of walks and history in the area. Philip recommended 2 great pubs, Prince Rupert in Newark and Hare & Hounds in Fulbeck. We also really enjoyed the Alpacca Farm and Doddington House. Philip lives close by and came to greet us on arrival. He is very friendly and helpful. The hot tub was great and accommodation very clean.

We really enjoyed our stay in Crich. The cottage was as described and had a real cosy feel to it. Great communication from Jo, who contacted us the day before to ask if we needed the cot bed etc. as we were travelling with our daughter. Clear instructions on check-in and overall a great stay. We would book again if we needed accommodation in the area.

Honestly one of the most beautiful places we have stayed, we had everything we needed and more and the personalised touches were just lovely! So cosy, clean and we felt so at home - we are already planning a trip back! 🩷

Our stay was lovely, the cottage was even better than shown in the images and very cosy - the place is beautifully furnished and very well set out. The paddock was well kept and our dog loved to have a run around in it. Communication from Camilla was perfect, quick to reply and very useful information given. The breakfast bits left were also a lovely touch, Thank you!!

This was booked a few weeks before we stayed and suited us to the ground. Bicester Village was the perfect place close by to get to Oxford by train. Easy to get to Blenheim Palace for their opening Christmas Weekend and Festival of illuminations. The Property had everything you could wish for, air Fryer, Washer, Dryer, Dishwasher, Fridge etc Christmas really did start early for as we were leaving with over an inch of snow on the Green and then 2 hours driving home in a Blizzard.

A beautiful cottage situated in a small, picturesque village. The cottage was warm, homely and comfortable, I really did feel as though I was in a home away from home. Host communication was exceptional and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks for hosting this charming property!

It was a lovely stay at a beautiful cottage. The cottage was everything we hoped for a little two day get away. We spent time on local walking footpaths and getting to know the local pubs. Our recommendations are; The Falcon, Ye Olde Reine Deer Inn and The Blinking Owl over the road. The owners of the Blinking Owl were lovely hosts, really traditional English pub and great food from Sylvia! We spent our New Years Eve there and it was a lovely evening. Couldnt have asked for a better stay. Mary was super helpful and responsive on the run up to the stay. We hope to visit again soon.

A beautiful and very cosy cottage in a lovely little village. Elizabeth was fantastic from the moment of booking, really friendly and helpful. The hamper was a really nice touch and bringing treats for the dogs was very thoughtful, they definitely approved! Ample parking, very easy to check in. The cottage was absolutely immaculate. Reclining sofas, very comfortable beds, a great shower. Well equipped kitchen. The garden was perfect for our dogs. There was not one single fault with our stay and I was rather sad to leave! We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you so much 💕

Louise’s cottage was lovely. I had a wonderful two day break there with my dog and it was very comfortable and homely. Well equipped and located centrally. Louise was very helpful.

Jill’s place was lovely. We had such a cosy, peaceful weekend. The property was super clean. It had everything you’d need. Every room was interesting and comfortable. We’d definitely come back.

Very good stay. We arrived a day late, of course this was not an issue and the place was exactly as described. We have 3/4 week more work in the area so will be looking Debbie’s house up again

Lovely house and perfect for a small family, Orla was very accommodating and provided information about the local horse riding activities in the local village for our children which they loved. Would stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at Caroline’s beautiful barn conversion. Everything was immaculate, lots of space, well equipped and furnished and so comfortable in every respect. Caroline was so welcoming and helpful and had provided so many very thoughtful extra touches, from all the ingredients for a delicious full breakfast with bacon and amazing fresh hen’s eggs, chocolate brownies, sweets to toiletries and so much more. Caroline really had anticipated all any guests could possibly need. The setting is so peaceful and just a short stroll to all the amenities of this lovely village and so easy to explore Cambridge from too. We were all very sad to leave at the end of our stay.

This was our second week staying here, after a brilliant experience the first time staying here, we had to come back again. Thank you for hosting us during our stay.

The cottage was beautiful and very cozy. The beds were very comfortable and the robes were a nice touch. Alex provided very clear and helpful instructions for check in and tips for local places to eat after our long journey! We very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Olive Cottage. Thank you for a lovely stay x

Lovely place and the owner was very friendly. We also saw some animals in the garden which was nice : )

We had a lovely stay - the cottage was a good size and it was very peaceful. It was a great base to explore Stowe, Bletchley Park and Waddesdon Manor, with delightful villages all around. Lovely countryside walks from the cottage too.
