Private Retreat 10 Min to Stratford | SPA Add-On Option

*New Listing pricing -Experience a charming vintage home apartment at the back of a Spa! Nestled in a quant tourist village, with antique shops, artisans, chocolatiers, craft brewing and more. Very close to Stratford (11minutes) and surrounding local attractions. A stunning 1 acre backyard overlooking farmlands with a hammock for two, nestled under the maple trees. Enjoy a cozy stay or add on spa treatments for an ultimate experience. Host Sherry, who lives in a separate part of the home, transformed part of the space where she raised her children into a serene getaway for others to enjoy.

You will experience the charm of an old vintage home, with warm, soothing colours that will feel like an embrace. A mix of vintage with a touch of modern makes our space unique. A state of the art reverse osmosis with additional LED light for water filtration and treatment makes it a wonderful option to drink clean safe water right from the tap! An older kitchen, but with modern amenities filled with everything you need to create a meal, will make you feel right at home. A large dining table to play games, share a meal, or just sit and have a drink. The boho style bedroom with a large window, offers you the most beautiful view while snuggled into bed, the peaceful feeling of “getting away from it all” will come over you. (A Sofa will be added in the fall) Outdoor large patio sectional is a wonderful option as well.
You can capture the gorgeous sunsets, the rustling leaves on the large maple trees, and the twinkling lights that hang from them all from bed. We seem to have a bunny that likes to come out around sunset and snack on the clover on the lawn outside that window!
On cool nights, the gas fireplace will light which creates an additional glow while snuggled into the bedroom. The warm summer days and evenings are a perfect time to hang out in the spacious covered patio, or play some lawn games or just sit and take in the views of the backyard.
It’s a unique property that can feel like you’re in the country all while you’re still inside a little village. We may have some rustic parts, and we may have areas to continue to work on around this 1902 building but we certainly have so much warmth, charm and personality!

Another wonderful amenity is the attached spa, wellness and treatment centre where you can arrange treatments during your stay!

With only being a 12 minute drive to Stratford, or 20 minutes to Kitchener/Waterloo you are in the perfect Central location to do it all.

We look forward to hosting you and giving you our best.

Relaxing Getaway
This is a wonderful property for a weekend getaway for 2 people. Very clean, quite and nicely furnished and decorated. The little extras made it personal and very welcoming. Communication with the host was clear and responses were prompt. The area is beautiful and there are some nice shops within walking distance. We will recommend this place to all our friends and family.

Village Retreat- a breath of fresh air
Located in the town of Shakespeare, and only a ten minute drive from Stratford, the Village Retreat is within walking distance of several antique stores, an ice cream shop, a quilt store and a tea room. Shop, browse or read a book on the covered patio , . play in Stratford that evening. Sherry, the Village Retreat’s owner, has turned this gem into a wonderful place to relax. The place is clean, the bed is comfortable, the shower is warm, and the patio is cool on an early autumn evening. And that’s not to mention the full range of appliances, dinnerware and cooking utensils in the kitchen. We found owner Sherry to be attentive to her property as well as our needs……, even though we never met her in person! She was rarely more than fifty feet away, attending to her own business which is housed at the front of the property. We never saw her, but from the time of our arrival to our departure, she was never more than a text message or email away. We had a great two nights at the Village Retreat. In the past seven years, we’ve been to Stratford four times and have stayed in a different place on each occasion. But my wife and I are in agreement that this pattern has come to an end. The Village Retreat is where we will be returning again.. and again. Bill Z
