Summer photo of the River AvonTypically British with its seasonal trends, the climate of Stratford upon Avon usually enjoys fine, sunny summers, and increasingly mild winter weather. However, Stratford upon Avon is no different to other towns, and whilst some summers can rival those of the Mediterranean temperature-wise, others can be quite damp and inclement at times.

The unpredictable climate is often considered to be part of England's charm and character, although heavy rain during Stratford upon Avon's summer months can quite literally put a damper on things.
