This was a great place for our overnight stay in Stratford. It was much nicer than staying in a hotel. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. The room was very spacious and beautifully kept. It was very clean. The breakfast was very good.We were able to walk to the downtown area and were just a few minute walk from the Avon Theatre.We would definitely book the room again.

For my parents Anniversary my dad took my mom to Stratford for some shows, her favorite. They stayed at this B&B and both of them have been raving about it since they returned home. The family was so kind and wonderful to talk with. The home was immaculately kept. The family dog was a pleasure to have around. The owners thought of everything! A cute delicious chocolate dessert, from a local shop, awaited them in the bedroom’s refrigerator. Definitely a place they’d come back to. They thoroughly enjoyed their time there.

Excellent Stratford Stay

A comfortable and convenient B&B with excellent hosts and great breakfasts. The home and property are beautifully maintained and the hosts very friendly and helpful. Our only note is the tight flight of steps up to our room on the second floor.

Great hosts, great location, great property! Only possible question was the number of stairs leading up to the room - just a little challenging for some... Would definately recommend it.

We enjoyed our two-night stay at Hathaway Cottage. Our room was clean and comfortable, the breakfasts were delicious, and the hosts were kind and helpful. The property was convenient to shopping, restaurants, and the theaters. Our only regret is that we didn’t have more time to interact with the friendly house dog Nyla. Great stay.
