The Finer Details...
The maximum occupancy for this property is 4 guests. Infants do not count towards the occupancy figure, however, due to space restrictions the occupancy can only be exceeded by 2 additional infants (aged 2 and under)
Bed linen and towels are provided (duvets and pillows are hypoallergenic)
Allocated off street parking spot for 1 car, badge holders only and 1 badge will be provided during your stay (free on street parking is readily available a short walk away from the property for vans and larger vehicles)
Travel cots and highchairs are not provided, so guests will need to bring these with them
Sorry, no pets
Free WiFi
Mobile phone reception varies by provider
Smart TV with apps (guests to use their own login details)
Gas central heating system
Please note that the external metal staircase is steep, however a handrail is provided. These may also become slippery in wet weather
The smoke and CO detectors operate on a sound only basis and, therefore, those who have serious impairment of hearing may not be able to hear the alarm systems and could be at risk
No smoking or vaping is permitted throughout the property
Things to Note...
Events are not permitted without prior consent
A security deposit is required at this property
Check in is from 17:00 and check out is by 10:00
Please note that there is an external CCTV camera at the property entrance (this is purely used for security purposes and will not infringe on guest privacy)
Please note that this 17th century apartment is part of a historic building (as it’s located on the first floor, we kindly ask all guests to enjoy the space respectfully and keep noise to a minimum)
The Stow Horse Fair is held twice a year, typically on the Thursday closest to 12th May and the Thursday closest to 24th October, however, we would recommend checking the exact date ahead of placing your booking. This is a traditional fair for gypsies and travelling people to meet up and trade which dates back to 1476 when its Charter was granted. Stow is very busy for a day or two before and after each fair, and a number of shops, pubs and restaurants are closed. Whilst many visitors enjoy the colour and vibrancy associated with the fairs, other visitors prefer to avoid Stow on these dates
