This was our first stay at Wharf Stables but I'm sure it won't be our last! The cottage was very well equipped, clean and comfortable and ideal for two couples sharing. The canalside location is stunning and perfect for nature lovers with rabbits, squirrels, swans and even munjac deer all seen in the garden. There are numerous places of interest to visit and good pubs/restaurants within a few minutes drive. Excellent!

From beginning to finish, we enjoyed our stay at the Wharf Stables so very much. In fact, so much that I cried when it was time to leave. Alan and Liz, Thank You for your kindness, for your detailed directions and additional information which helped us greatly. This trip has been a dream of ours for a long time. I would say our dream came true. The atmosphere was a dream all in itself. Loved the birds singing, Bertie the dog, the stunning setting and chatting with Liz. We loved it all!!

We had a wonderful time at this cottage, which was equipped with all we could need and more. It is situated in this quiet village, with the canal on one side as well as the local railway station. We loved walking along the towpath and seeing all the wildlife as well as visiting local attractions. Thank you to our hosts Liz and Alan for letting us share their amazing piece of paradise....

We had a lovely stay at Wharf Stables in Wilmcote. Quiet area directly on the canal. It was close enough to get to Stratford for sightseeing and shopping and not too far from Birmingham where many of our family are located. While I did not get to meet the owners my father met Liz and he said she was lovely. Everything was as posted in the listing. I will caution that for those from the US, there is a dryer but it only gets the clothes dry enough to hang and dry quickly on the line. We thoroughly enjoyed our visits from Bertie the golden retriever. He was a joy to see in the morning for a quick head scratch and he made sure to say good night when we were around in the evening. The cottage itself was perfect for two couples or a family of four. The bedrooms are on each end separated by the kitchen and living area. This worked well as we have some snorers and no one was bothered. The canal path was a short walk on the road and we were able to enjoy a walk along the canal often. Be aware that the coffee shop down the road is not always open but the little store has an excellent selection of food and drink. There are many places to eat just a short drive away. If I lived in England I would surely stay again. Thanks for a lovely stay!

We really enjoyed our first visit to Wharf Stables, it is a beautiful property in a lovely location. It had everything we needed for a short break. Alan was very responsive and more than helpful on the occasions I needed to contact him. The train station was a bonus just a five minute walk from the property. We will definitely be back in the future.

The cottage is one of the nicest we have stayed in. It is well looked after and we cannot recommend it enough. The location is perfect with abundant wild life in the garden and swans on the canal.

We had a fabulous 5 night stay at Canalside Cottage. The accommodation was hard to fault and worthy of a five star rating. The smallest of niggles were pillows that we found quite hard and a TV that lacked smart functionality. The weather was poor, so we found ourselves wanting to watch Netflix or Prime in the evenings which wasn’t available. These were very minor niggles and didn’t detract from what was fabulous accommodation made even more special with regular visits from the owners wonderful dog Bertie. It made our daughter’s week along with the wonderful array of wildlife present in the grounds. We would happily book again.
