Discover this beautiful open concept home, with grande front entrance with 12 stone steps, that are lit up with tinkle lights at night to guide you home. Explore treasures along our garden paths (be it waterfalls, gazebo with hammock, corlourful perenial flowers or picnic tables). Soak in our Indoor hot tub, or relax by the fire.
With living in Stratford for over 42 yrs, & B&B owners for 30 yrs, we are extremely knowledgable about Stratford and Area, the Festival's playbill, local events. Also find out insiders knowledge about the behind the scenes aspects of the Festival Theater. Lively conversations with us and fellow guests at the breakfast table frequently ensues.
Stratford is a popular destination for those attending the Stratford Festival, and we are just a 15 minute walk from the main Festival Theatre, a straight walk down a residential street and then through parkland. We are also only a few blocks from the local shopping and other conveniences. Our neighbourhood hosts houses from the 1950's to the 2020's so it certainly makes for an interesting stroll. Our street also parallels the Stratford County Club's wonder 18 hole Golf Course, and overlooks the Avon River where it is only a stream.
