Great location for our family
Stone House, being situated on the High Street, is near convenient amenities, and Alcester has good links to places to visit. The house itself was clean, with lots of character, and space. The garden was quiet and peaceful, and the addition of the hot tub was perfect. Parking at the property was private and convenient. Matthew was responsive to our questions before, and throughout our visit - thank you!
