About this property
The Cottage, Wansford
Summary:
The Cottage near King's Cliffe sleeps four guests in three bedrooms.
The Space:
The Cottage, a two-storey cottage, consists of a kitchen with an oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, coffee machine, kettle, toaster, Nutribullet, wine chiller, and a living/dining room with dining seating, Bluetooth speaker, USB connection, Smart TV (via Chromecast), and woodburning stove. The bedrooms include two doubles with Smart TVs and a ground-floor conservatory bedroom. There is a bathroom with walk-in shower, overhead rain shower, basin, and WC, and a second bathroom with bath, basin, and WC. A washer/dryer, hair dryer, vacuum cleaner, iron, and ironing board are available. Cot and highchair available at 10GBP each. On-site, you'll find EV charging available at an additional fee, woodland trails, play area, dedicated barbecue/picnic area, and nearby golf courses. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen, and towels are included in the rent. Outside, there is an enclosed decking with furniture, garden bar, sauna, outdoor shower, and hot tub, with designated parking for three cars and on-site car park available. Three well-behaved dogs welcome. Sorry, no smoking. All of this awaits at The Cottage, a unique countryside retreat in Northamptonshire. Note: Air conditioning is available in the living room and conservatory.
The Neighborhood:
Kings Cliffe stands on the edge of the Rockingham Forest and is predominantly built of Lincolnshire Limestone similar to that found in the Cotswolds. There are good local amenities including a small supermarket, greengrocers, bakery, Post Office, art gallery and pub. The village is situated in tranquil countryside and offers easy access to individually mapped footpaths and bridleways perfect for rambling and cycling. Nearby Rutland Water offers a variety of water based activities including sailing, windsurfing, canoeing and fishing as well as being well placed for cycling, walking and bird watching. Famous people to have lived in the village include William Law (1686-1761), a prominent theologian and author, and Miles Joseph Berkeley (1803-1889) who studied the many species of fungi to be found in the vicinity of Kings Cliffe and is regarded as the founder of Plant Pathology. Glenn Miller gave his last concert in a hangar at Kings Cliffe airfield in October 1944 before being lost on a fatal flight to Paris. A memorial marks the spot of the concert, and is near to a public footpath. The historic market towns of Stamford, Oundle, Oakham and Uppingham are within easy reach with the stately home of Burghley House, Barnsdale Country Gardens, Kirby Hall and Rockingham Castle among other attractions. Nearby Peterborough has a cathedral, which is considered by many to be one of the finest Norman buildings surviving in Europe today.
