Overview: Following several requests Steve & Arlene Dell have developed a new social weekend in the historic Stratford upon Avon.
Stratford upon Avon is a market town famous for Shakespeare, but there is so much more to Stratford than the Bard. It’s a pretty riverside town with many historic buildings and tourist attractions which just oozes culture and heritage.
We stay in a lovely 4*, central Stratford upon Avon; the Doubletree by Hilton which gets 4.5 out of 5 on Trip Advisor. The hotel has a car park but is also walking distance from the railway station.
The weekend is designed to be flexible and relaxed - over the weekend there will be several coordinated activities and visits to Stratford upon Avon’s attractions (see below). You can either do all of these activities or dip in and out as you please, you may want to go to other attractions in smaller groups or you may want to do some shopping! There will be group meals on the Friday and Saturday evenings.
Stratford upon Avon has some great tourist attractions and some of the more popular ones are listed below. Steve will develop an itinerary of coordinated in advance of the weekend. When these are finalised, they will be added as events on the website for you to book.
And of course, many unusual shops
