About this property

The Toll House at Riverside Stamford

  • This lovely cottage style home-from-home sits on the edge of the River Welland and Town Bridge, perfectly located with all main Stamford attractions within walking distance, including shops, bars, restaurants, the Meadows and of course Burghley House and Gardens.

    Our lovely Grade 2 listed apartment dates back to 1849 where it was used as the bridge tollgate building. You'll even see the small window hatches still in place where tolls were once paid.

    Fully refurbished with many original features still on show, this is the perfect spot to feel immersed in all the character and charm Stamford has to offer.

    Stamford is recognised as England's finest stone town boasting more than 600 listed 17th and 18th century buildings including medieval churches and the world famous Burghley House which hosts the Burghley Horse Trials each year attracting visitors from all over the world.

    The historic market town of Stamford in Lincolnshire has been named as the best place to live in the Midlands, according to The Sunday Times. The picturesque Lincolnshire town was described as “architectural eye candy” by judges of The Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide. It was named the best in the country in 2013 and was runner-up in 2017 and in the 2019 poll it was described as: “Still the best-looking town in Britain.”

    The Award Winning Riverside Apartments from Stamford Stays nestled right in the heart of the town have hosted thousands of guests since 2017 with hundreds of wonderful reviews from visitors from across the UK and overseas, many of whom return again and again for business or leisure (or both!).

    Centrally located, these provide a perfect home-from-home immersed in heritage with the town literally on the doorstep and he incredible Burghley House and Gardens only a short distance away, it's easy to see why so many visitors choose to stay here time after time.

Accurately described. Nice with everything ready to use, like some capsules for the washing machine and the dishwasher. Instructions for use available (I always need them).Intriguing apartment - gave me a combined sense of something very old, yet luxurious.Very nice views, especially the from the kitchen - made me forget what I'd meant to do and daydream instead.Nice location, would be perfect if not for the sound of traffic during the day - at night quiet enough.

We enjoyed our stay in this two story flat. We arrived by train, and it was a short walk to get to the flat on the bridge. The location was a couple blocks to shopping and eating in town, and 1 mile walking to Burghley House. The flat was very comfortable with living room and kitchen on the ground floor, and bedroom and bathroom on the upper level. The flat sits on a busy corner, but that didn’t bother us, even though we had to open the windows due to the heat wave. We didn’t use the kitchen, but we did do laundry in the washer. Everything we used was in good working order, the bed was comfortable, and the internet worked well. Very good experience. We would stay here again.
