  • Inn Details

    Shakespeare House in Grendon Underwood is a historic Grade II* listed part Elizabethan former coaching inn, beautifully restored with a high degree of luxury, elegant interior designed bedrooms and reception rooms. Situated within the village environs of Grendon Underwood which traces its history back to Medieval England, Shakespeare House is one of the most historic homes in Buckinghamshire. Nick Hunter and Roy Elsbury, your hosts, will be delighted to welcome you into their historic home, and if you are interested, offer you a unique insight into the past of this fascinating former coaching inn, and its most illustrious guest, William Shakespeare, after whom the house is proudly named. According to tradition, William Shakespeare stayed here on several occasions when en route between Stratford upon Avon and London, and it is said he may have gained inspiration during one of his sojourns here for ""A Midsummer Night's Dream"". For those who are keen studiers of English and/or Elizabethan architecture there is much to see and enjoy during your stay. Our aim is clear: to ensure you have the most relaxing and enjoyable time here at Shakespeare House. A truly unique setting away from the bustle of modern life. We offer a selection of stylish rooms, all with private bathrooms with either a bath, spa bath, or bath and separate shower, at different rates. The Guardian newspaper said ""Great for solo travellers and dinner's such fun"", while The Observer liked the ""plush furnishings and super-swish bathrooms"". Shakespeare House was also praised by Conde Nast Traveler Magazine. Voted one of the top 50 places to stay by The Telegraph.
