Are you bored while in the Stratford-upon-Avon area? Well don't worry! We have some interesting things fo you to do!

 
The Baraset Barn is proud to be in a picturesque spot in Stratford-Upon-Avon, one of the most luxurious and beautiful spots in the Midlands. With the winter and festive season about to pick up and winter breaks sure to be on your mind, we wanted to showcase some of our favourite scenic spots in Stratford-Upon-Avon, a winter wonderland in the heart of the midlands.

Winter walks along the Avon

Frost covers the cobblestone streets of Stratford-upon-Avon, transforming it into a winter paradise, while the River Avon takes on a brilliant sheen. We advise taking a lovely stroll down the River Avon to make the most of your winter staycation in Stratford-upon-Avon. There are some amazing sights and views along the walk, which winds through lovely gardens, breathtaking homes, and passes by the Holy Trinity Church, where Shakespeare is buried.

Take a cosy stroll alongside the river when the weather is chilly. You will be led on a loop back to the centre along the riverside path, but for more experienced explorers, there are other more difficult ways available.

Check out Magic Alley

The historic town of Stratford-upon-Avon is home to a number of antique shops and diverse, independent boutiques that make for an interesting shopping experience. Spend your winter break in Stratford-upon-Avon discovering wonderful vintage collections of apparel, art, and antiques at stores like The Barn, Stalls Lifestyle, and Stratford Antique Centre, as well as Sims Vintage Antique Centre and Henley Street Antiques.

Visit Magic Alley, Stratford-upon-most Avon's magical attraction and spellbinding emporium, to have an absolutely mind-blowing experience. Here, you may anticipate interactive journeys that bring stories and mythical characters to life, inspiring your imagination. The Emporium is full of inventive items to satisfy your curiosity, including magic spells and tricks, old prints, books, toys, incense, and more.

See a show at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre

The Royal Shakespeare Theatre is located on the banks of the River Avon, just a short stroll from the town centre.

Shakespeare would agree that this is one of the most romantic things to do in Stratford-upon-Avon, and we firmly feel there is no better place to immerse yourself in some of his best plays than here!

There are several plays to pick from, some of which you may be familiar with and others which may be less well known.

Check out the local gin scene
Shakespeare Gin Distillery is a relatively new site on the map, and the staff is extremely knowledgeable and committed to making sure visitors have a great day from beginning to end.

The cocktail masterclass is one of the most romantic things to do in Stratford-upon-Avon, despite the fact that they also provide tours of the distillery and instruction on how to manufacture gin. With it being the festive season, there are often lots of winter samples and treats to enjoy and try so head on down to check out the latest tipples!

Stratford-Upon-Avon is a lovely location for a winter weekend break with plenty to satisfy everyone from lovers of the theatre to those who want to sample local produce to those who just want to relax. We are proud of our local scene and it’s something we eagerly recommend. There is always something new to experience and try, especially over the festive season so get stuck in and get involved!
