About the host
Hosted by Kevin Gormley and Kim Foster
We both share a passion for good wholesome food. Kevin has worked previously for 15 years at some of the U.K.'s and Irelands finest 'Relais & Chateaux' Country Inns and Hotels in their restaurants before moving to Stratford from Ireland in 1993. Kim is a native of Stratford and has traveled extensively on a private yacht catering to crew and invited guests. Both of us now enjoy life together in the great community of Stratford with our son among family and friends. Together we hope to nourish your body and soul.
Why they chose this property
This home has a personal connection to us and we're familiar with the home & neighbourhood for decades. It's a great street, good neighbours, quiet and near all you could possible want in town. This area has beautiful and well kept homes and is literally a stone's throw from Stratford prime lake parkland and trails. Needless to say that the new Tom Patterson theatre a mere 3 minute walk away is exciting. Calendars are here are NOT accurate....shorter term stay available from oldrectorystratford Now you know!
What makes this property unique
An easy three minute walk to the soon to be opened 'Jewel of Stratford-The Tom Patterson Theatre'. Festival theatre is a leisurely 10 minute walk as is the Avon and Studio theatres at 8 minutes. The river walk around Stratford's picturesque lake take about 20 minutes, start point is 2 minutes away. We love this home, have known the previous owner and as such it's been a home from home for us. Our son in the '00's spent many days as a toddler roaming this house and gardens, and we are happy to have been able to renovate this home with a view to keeping its 'feel' being one that you constantly want to return to. We're happy to share our home with you. We know you'll love it (and the neighbourhood) as much as we do.
