About the home
This 3 star graded studio apartment is an ideal base for anyone wishing to enjoy Stratford's many and varied attractions.

Guestbook for 4 Bancroft Place
We had a lovely time. Thank you. A real home from home with better equipped kitchen than ours! Made lots of bread and shared some each morning with the ducks and swans out of the window! Best self catering we've ever stayed in.
(H&JS Cornwall)
This is our first time in Stratford. Firstly our apartment, what a fantastic location, everything within 10 minutes. One of the BEST equipped, comfortable apartments we have stayed in. No matter what the weather, you can never be bored. Beautiful-wonderful Stratford. We will be back! (P&J K Lincolnshire)
Fantastic base and location to visit the area. We enjoyed the apartment as it is one of the best equipped we have been in, compact and effective. (A. & C. S. Orpington, Kent)
My wife's verdict on the apartment was "fabulous" - high praise indeed. We could not have imagined how near to the shops we were and with the canal providing a break it seemed we were insulated from them as well. Another treat was your sofa bed, a very good choice. (J.& J. F. Scotland)
I've been coming to Stratford for many years, but I've never found lodgings so convenient to the theatres! The flat is lovely: clean, bright & well equipped and with a charming overlook. I never plan to stay anywhere else in the future- Thank you! (C.W.Nevada USA)
We were able to fulfil our hopes of relaxing in Bancroft Gardens watching the world go by.The apartment is great and it's location is perfect. We will certainly visit again. (H&R.W. Uckfield U.K.)
We loved the location, all the thoughtful amenities and comfortable flat. Thank you for making our last British Christmas our best! (D&M.R.transplanted from Colorado Springs USA)
Whilst compact and bijou we found number 4 to be well equipped in an ideal location in the heart of Stratford. Ideal for us as we could stroll out to the theatre and enjoy some of the local eateries. Nice touch with the "kitchen supplies" cupboard - most handy.
(T&J.J.Newcastle-under-Lyme)
Wonderful stay, a perfect base. Very thoughtfully provided items in the flat to make life so easy. I want to live here
forever, so I'll be back.(E.S London - now booked for 22nd stay)
What a lovely flat in a wonderful place. Everything is charming.(R&A.C.Brussels)
Location of your apartment makes it a jewel for Midland tourists. We had a wonderful time.(J&C.L Veracruz, Mexico)
We are looking forward to Stratford very much, we almost feel at home there. We are glad we can again enjoy the lovely sight from the bay window of your cosy apartment. By the way, we bought the same sort of bed here in Germany for our guest room - liked it so much.(C.L.Germany. Now booked for 8th stay)
