The fairly small village of Welford-on-Avon is a charming settlement to reside in for a country cottage break due to its picturesque location on the river. With three friendly pubs to settle into in the evenings which also serve food, a village church and lots of Tudor and thatched cottages, there is a wonderful Olde English and old-fashioned feel to Welford-on-Avon, and if you like history and exploring a quiet yet interesting place, then renting a self-catering cottage here may be a fantastic idea for a holiday in this part of Warwickshire. 4 miles from the town of Stratford-upon-Avon, it is ideally located to discover other delights of the county with your friends and family.
