The Central England / Cotswolds / Warwickshire region


With easy road, rail and airport access, it is the perfect place for a vacation or short break. Using the lodge as a base, you can enjoy the delights not only of Shakespeare’s home town, but also the nearby surrounding shire counties of Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire. Enjoy Blenheim Palace and the Cotswolds to the south, Worcester and the Malverns to the west, Warwick Castle and Henley-in-Arden to the north, and all within easy access of Stratford itself.
There is a whole wealth of enjoyable scenery and fascinating places to visit in the Stratford areas. Stratford is a small town surrounded by glorious rural countryside, the colour of which changes from deep greens of spring and winter to the golden harvest yellow of summer and autumn.There are many beautiful small villages each with their own charm and history. The roads and byways are quiet, the natives are friendly and the inns plentiful.
To the South – The Cotswolds. The hills of the Cotswolds of Gloucestershire start just south of Stratford with Chipping Campden, an historic major town. This is the old market town, where woolen merchants traded for hundreds of years. Unaffected by the industrial revolution, you can enjoy old England as it was since the 1700’s. The Cotswolds are famous for the honey-blond stone buildings. The whole town of Chipping Campden is built of it, and is a typical example of the entire district.
The Stratford upon Avon area
In the lodge there is an events calender for you to browse with all details and phone numbers of everything going on in Stratford and surrounding areas, including fun things for the children.
Apart from being steeped in history, Stratford-upon-Avon boasts a fantastic shopping, dining and entertainment experience.
From designer boutiques to home made craft and souvenir shops. Restaurants and Bistros to Riverboat dining, and of course the world famous National Shakespeare Theater featuring legends of stage and screen.
Whether you are after a light lunch or classic cuisine you will find many alternatives to fine dining in and around Stratford-upon-Avon. There are many award winning restaurants providing a wide selection of food to suit all tastes, with a price range to suit every pocket. There are great restaurants such as:- Barasset Barn, Bensons of Stratford, Strada, George Town & Quarto's.

I first stayed here with family in 2007 and we've been back every year (apart from 1). I have only positive things to say about River Haven lodge. The lodge has everything and more that you could need for your stay. The owners are extremely welcoming and there is always cake and a bottle of wine for your arrival :0) It's close to the town which is lovely in itself but we were just as happy to sit out on the decking (weather permitting) and watch the world go by. I would recommend the lodge to anyone and I hope to go back again next year. Response: Thank you for taking the time to send a review, it was great to see how much you enjoyed our lodge over the years. It makes all our effort worthwhile to see you had a great holiday |

The Davis Family in Cheltenham- Wonderful Lodge all you could ever need. So peaceful on the river. Extremely comfortable. Will be back again.
