Accommodation Near Stratford-upon-Avon

Planning a trip to Stratford-upon-Avon? Whether you are seeing a show at the Royal Shakespeare Company, exploring Shakespeare's birthplace, or using Stratford as a gateway to the Cotswolds, our serviced accommodation in Coventry gives you the perfect base — at a fraction of the cost of staying in Stratford itself.

Why Stay in Coventry for a Stratford-upon-Avon Trip?

Stratford-upon-Avon is one of the UK's most visited towns, and accommodation there reflects that with premium prices. Hotels and B&Bs in Stratford typically charge £120–£200+ per night for a single room. With Maine Stays, you get a whole house in Coventry for less:

• Entire house, not a B&B room — multiple bedrooms, a living room, and a full kitchen
• Save 50%+ on accommodation — a Stratford B&B double room costs more than our entire house
• Free parking — Stratford parking can be expensive and hard to find, especially in summer
• Cook at home — make breakfast before heading out, or supper after a late theatre show
• Space for families — kids can play and relax properly after a day of sightseeing

Perfect for RSC Theatre-Goers

The Royal Shakespeare Company is one of the world's most renowned theatre companies, and their Stratford-upon-Avon theatres draw visitors from across the globe. If you are catching an evening performance, you can drive to Stratford in 30 minutes, enjoy the show, and be back at your comfortable house in Coventry within an hour of the curtain falling. No expensive Stratford hotel required.
