Great location for sightseeing in Stratford; a short walk to theatre, resaturants, and Shakespeare's birthplace. Catch the hop-on hop-off bus there. Family room with two doubles plus bunk beds and two baths. Breakfast cooked to order and delicious. Hosts so helpful with directions and suggestions. Private garage about a block away, but short-term parking available at the fornt door for... more

My 18year old daughter and I just visited Stratford upon Avon for the first time. She had just sprained her ankle pretty badly the day we left California, and was on crutches, but when we arrived at the Emsley Guest House, we were treated SO kindly and friendly I couldn't be happier. Keith grabbed our stuff out of our car,... more

We stayed two nights at the Emsley. Keith and Val could not be better hosts. Upon arrival they gave us a very complete overview of the town with several excellent recommendations. The Suffolk room is one of the largest with a double bed, a twin bed and two bunk beds. There were only 2 of us, so we didn't need... more

Found The Emsley on the Stratford upon Avon tourism site and booked directly. Main appeal was the large rooms as we were a group of 3. We stayed in the Warwick room that had 1 double bed and 2 singles with plenty of space around them. Decent bathroom with bath and shower. Very warm welcome, garages are a 2 min... more

If you’re wondering whether all these rave reviews are too good to be true – relax! This really is a B&B which gets everything right – from the warm welcome on arrival to the very reasonable bill on departure. The York Room is cosy rather than spacious, but has everything you could wish for – TV, clock radio, hair drier,... more

We stayed at the Emsley Guest House for one night back in September of 2006, although we wished we had stayed longer! The owners (Keith & Val) are very friendly, kind, and helpful. After assisting my husband park our rental car, they sat us down in the lounge to give us an overview of Stratford, and recommendations for restaurants. We... more

The location is very convenient and the hosts help with parking – they provided us with our own garage just round the corner. The room was typical B&B style, no better no worse, but clean and a decent size. The hosts were great, really making us feel welcome. They gave us ideas of where to go and provided us with... more

I stayed here with my boyfriend because we'd booked tickets to see King Lear. The last two B&Bs that we stayed in were not great despite their 4 star rating and we were a bit apprehensive but the owners of the guest house were lovely. Straight away we were put at ease. We stayed in the Warwick room. The photos... more

This is a very friendly B&B, with a great parking system (which is vital in Stratford) and friendly, hospitable and helpful hosts. The breakfast was very nice and the room clean and bright. The thing that stops me rating this place more highly is the en suite in the Suffolk (the room we stayed in). It's very small - though... more
