Guide to Stratford-upon-Avon

map
Close to the Cotswolds, around 22 miles from Birmingham lies the picturesque town of Stratford-upon-Avon, with a population of over 25,000 people. Most famous as the birthplace of Elizabethan playwright William Shakespeare, the area is a postcard-perfect assortment of exposed timber frame houses and quaint thatched roofs. Don't miss a trip to Shakespeare's house, Ann Hathaway's cottage, then soak up some of his work in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.
