The Clock Tower

Wonderful stay at Clocktower, room was just perfection. So relaxing. amazing views, everything you would want from a calming getaway retreat. Lizzie & Dave were so welcoming too. We are already planning our next trip to Daventry so we can stay again!

We were visiting the area for my nieces wedding and decided to stay at Lizzie and David's amazing home... The Clock Tower. After a warm welcome, we were shown to our room with the biggest bathroom ever. The views were beautiful looking out over gardens and the countryside. There are various walks you can do and even the local pub is within walking distance. Lizzie always met us for breakfast in the morning with plenty of hot and cold choices, with fresh fruit, berries and yogurt along with fresh orange juice. The highlight though, was meeting their two lovely, loyal dogs (sorry Lizzie and David) who always kept us company at breakfast hoping for any bits of food we wernt able to finish!!! Whilst there, we also visited Daventry Park which had a lovely big lake you could walk round easily as they had made wooden walkways in certain parts. There were plenty of ducks around as well and a small cafe. Leamington Spa and Stratford aren't far away and we also visited a couple of villages in the Cotswolds. All in all, The Clock Tower is a beautiful, tranquil place to stay just to unwind, relax and chill out for a few days'.

Marvellous - Simpy Marvellous & Great Poached Eggs Thank you Lizzie and David for welcoming us into your super home that surrounded us with so many interesting features and memories. The Clock Tower is absolutely gorgeous. Our top floor room next to the old clock mechanism was marvellous. Spacious, comfortable, great bed and a large a bathroom. Our small balcony with table and chairs was visited by birdsong all around and no other sounds. Adorable views across the garden towards an ancient church (to which the cherry tree walk is simply delightful) and onward to the more distant rustic countryside. Several times we enjoyed a wonderful walk along the gate-locked lane (no traffic) to the Red Lion - a great pub in the lovely village of Hellidon. Our car stayed parked in the forecourt for several days as we simply absorbed the English countryside. To top it off, Lizzie and David are wonderful hosts - and the poached eggs at breakfast - excellent. Indeed, at the risk of overstating things, they were perfect. And of course - our other new friends Ella and Blue - such lovely dogs! When next we visit from Australia we will stay again!
