Stratford-upon-Avon: Guide

Stratford-upon-Avon is an historic town on the river Avon in the England|English county of Warwickshire, best known as the home town of the great English playwright and poet, William Shakespeare. As such, it represents one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country.

Understand

Stratford-upon-Avon has its origins in the Saxon culture of medieval England (the name "straet-ford" indicates that it was a river crossing). For many centuries it was little more than a small market town on the road to London; even today, it has only 24,000 permanent residents. Though it has developed some industrial capacity, Stratford is now known mostly for its association with Shakespeare. The city benefits tremendously from the resulting tourism and cultural activity, and has gone to great lengths to preserve those buildings that have survived since Shakespeare's time. As a result the center of town is quaint and attractive, drawing many thousands of tourists each year to its cultural and historical amenities.

Get in

By car

To get to Stratford-upon-Avon from London, take the M40 motorway and get off at Junction 15. Distance 102 miles (164 km), journey time approximately 2 hours.

By train

Stratford-upon-Avon train station is located around half a mile west of the town centre. The town is easily accessible by foot from the station. There are regular services to Birmingham_(England)|Birmingham Snow Hill station (around an hour), Warwick (England)|Warwick (around 30 minutes) and London Marylebone (around two and a half hours). If travelling from London, you might need to change at Leamington Spa station.

See

Shakespeare's Birthplace , Henley St. A can't miss for tourists. Probably the location of Shakespeare's birth, and definitely the home of his early years. Restored with 16th-century decor and many authentic items. Also includes gardens in the immediate area.
Ann Hathaway's Cottage . Romantic cottage located in the hamlet of Shottery, approximately a mile from the town centre. Hathaway, later Shakespeare's wife, lived here as a girl until her marriage with the playwright (meaning that their courtship occurred here). Restored with many family heirlooms on display, and surrounded with scenic gardens.
Holy Trinity Church . Site of the burial of William Shakespeare, and therefore a place of pilgrimage for his admirers. Though the church itself is ordinary by British standards, the playwright's tomb (and those of his immediate family) is well worth the effort to visit. Be aware that the church is not a "tourist attraction"; services and other functions take precidence over other considerations. Entry is free, but those viewing the grave are asked to make a donation.
the Falstaffs Experience , Sheep St -
the Royal Shakespeare Theatre

Do

Hire a rowing boat and take a trip up and down the river.

Buy

Almost needless to say, Stratford is one of the best places to stock up on your Shakespeare memorabilia and paraphernalia... Many town centre shops do a brisk trade in general English souvenirs as well.

On most summer Sundays there is a craft-market on the Waterside. The produce isn't particularly local though.

Eat

Check-out the Fish & Chip Shop, across the road from the RSC, down by the river. The food here is as good as the more expensive restaurants, though obviously there is a more limited range.

Drink

Cox's Yard a pub, theatre and live-music venue in the town centre.
