About this property
The Old Rectory Coach House-EAST Suite downtown
A 2 minute walk from Stratford's historic downtown core. We believe the old red brick coach house pre-dates the main house built in 1902 (The Old Rectory B&B)
We renovated the space in 1999 and again in 2021 and 2025 with the addition of new kitchens and bathrooms whilst maintaining the original feel of the old building.
The space features rough plaster walls, high beamed ceiling, slate & rustic pine floors.
The 2 level suite features spacious sleeping quarters, sitting room, kitchen and private garden.
Kitchen fully stocked with treats from our B&B kitchen.

About the host
Hosted by Kevin Gormley and Kim Foster
We both share a passion for good wholesome food. Kevin has worked previously for 15 years at some of the U.K.'s and Irelands finest 'Relais & Chateaux' Country Inns and Hotels in their restaurants before moving to Stratford from Ireland in 1993. Kim is a native of Stratford and has traveled extensively on a private yacht catering to crew and invited guests. Both of us now enjoy life together in the great community of Stratford with our son Conor among family and friends. Together we hope to nourish your body and soul.
We welcome you to our studio suite in historic downtown Stratford. We look forward to celebrating with you as we enjoy our 28th year in 2024
