Airport - There is no airport. Stratford-upon-Avon train station is located around half a mile west of the town centre. The town is easily accessible by foot from the station. There are regular services to Birmingham Snow Hill station (around an hour), Warwick (around 30 minutes) and London Marylebone (around two and a half hours). If travelling from London, you might need to change at Leamington Spa station.
Shopping - Almost needless to say, Stratford is one of the best places to stock up on your Shakespeare memorabilia and paraphernalia. Many town centre shops do a brisk trade in general English souvenirs as well. On most summer Sundays there is a craft-market on the Waterside. The produce isn't particularly local though.
