We had a fab time stay in Alcester. The house was well equipped with an incredible location. House was large enough to house 4 adults and 4 kids no problem. We will be coming back .

We are so glad you and your family had a wonderful stay at our home over the Christmas holidays. You are correct about it being so well equipped and strategically located. We look forward to your return in the near future.

Stone House, being situated on the High Street, is near convenient amenities, and Alcester has good links to places to visit. The house itself was clean, with lots of character, and space. The garden was quiet and peaceful, and the addition of the hot tub was perfect. Parking at the property was private and convenient. Matthew was responsive to our questions before, and throughout our visit - thank you!
