The two homes provide 6 bedrooms: 5 en-suite in The Old Farmhouse and a self-contained one bedroom space in The Maid's Cottage. Each property has its own hot tub and can be accessed through gates in their enclosed gardens.

Together the holiday homes sleep 12 in 6 double bedrooms, with an additional two children sleeping on The Maid’s Cottage sofa bed.

The Old Farmhouse sleeps 10 in 5 double, all en-suite bedrooms.
• Bedroom 1 – Large bedroom – King Bed – En suite Bathroom
• Bedroom 2 – Large bedroom – King Bed – En suite Shower room
• Bedroom 3 – King Bed or 2 x small singles – En suite Shower room
• Bedroom 4 – Standard Double – En suite Shower room
• Bedroom 5 – Downstairs bedroom – Super King Bed or 2 x Singles – En suite Wetroom and patio doors leading to garden

The kitchen is well equipped with breakfast bar and 4 stools, oven, microwave oven, fridge, freezer, hob, washing machine, kettle, toaster, hot water canister and dishwasher. The dining room has a 10-seater oak table which can seat 14 using the dining table in The Maid’s Cottage. The living room has a wood burner (supplied with a starter supply of wood) and 50” Smart TV. The Old Farmhouse is level access downstairs with ramp entry to the kitchen and patio. Outside is a large, enclosed garden with 8-seater hot tub, patio, outside dining tables, BBQ charcoal grill (charcoal not supplied) and sun loungers in summer.

The Maid’s cottage is a self-contained annex with an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space downstairs. The kitchen is well equipped with oven, microwave, fridge with freezer box, washing machine, kettle, toaster and dishwasher. There is a table (which extends to seat 4), double sofa bed, armchair, 43" smart TV and electric wood burner. The compact space downstairs is well designed to accommodate 2 adults and up to 2 children, who are happy to sleep downstairs although 4 adults have stayed with us.

Patio doors lead from the kitchen onto the patio which accommodates a 4-person hot tub, patio table (seats 4) and swing seat. The garden is large for the size of the property and is fully enclosed. Upstairs is the bedroom with its king-sized bed and bathroom with large bath and over bath shower.

When the properties are let together, gates in the garden fence are opened so guests can move easily between properties on the patio.

The homes are dog and child friendly with stair gates, cots, highchairs and baby baths available on request. There is plenty of parking around both properties and WiFi throughout, both properties have their own router.

Four adults have stayed in The Maid’s Cottage but the space around the sofa bed could be tight.

We also have:
• App controlled EV charger
• Bike store available

What's the location like....

The Old Farmhouse and Maid's cottage are situated on our working arable farm. Both properties are on the edge of the farmyard, near to farm buildings and our neighbour’s home and horse fields. They are only accessible by car or bike as there is no public transport to the property. The nearest railway station is Huntingdon, 11 miles (approximately 20 minutes away). The nearest shops are in Sawtry, 2 miles away.

We can suggest Taxi companies if required.

The Old Farmhouse parking is behind its own gate and the cottage has a parking space at the side of the property.

We will meet you at the property when you check in unless we are not available, if this is the case we will introduce ourselves to you as soon as possible after your arrival.

We live on the same site as the property and will be on hand if you have any questions or concerns but we do work away from the site at other farms but are contactable via phone if required.

We will be servicing the hot tub twice daily.

Pet friendly....
We accept up to three well-behaved dogs (one in the cottage, two in the farmhouse and no puppies) and no other pets. We ask that dogs stay downstairs, off the furniture and are not left on their own for prolonged periods of time.
