Lovely quiet house, much bigger than expected!

The house itself is beautiful and massive. Facilities are excellent and the garden felt like we were miles from anything. Easy to reach and close to town so we could walk to a restaurant for dinner. Hosts both lovely and so helpful.

Great House, Great Hosts

The house is as advertised - very spacious with well appointed rooms and a fantastic garden that even has a hidden tree house and trampoline for kids. Linda and Keith couldn't have been more welcoming. Check in was a breeze, and the supplies they left for us were a godsend at midnight when my jet-lagged children woke up for a snack'. Highly recommended

About the host

Hosted by Linda Griffiths

My husband and I retired 10 years ago.Our children had recently flown the nest and rather than down size we decided to share our wonderful home.During those past years we have hosted some wonderful people and made good friends. We love to travel ourselves, we appreciate home comforts and are excited by the prospect of others enjoying it too.We love to host and hope we can make our guests feel welcome on our home.

Why they chose this property

When my husband was working, he is a retired Police Officer, he needed a place which was, amongst other things, easy to commute into London. The journey time via fast train into London is 30mins. Perhaps though the most important of all was being able to raise our children in such a wonderful, peaceful environment.

What makes this property unique

We are surrounded by ancient oak trees with a private access into a small woodland called Knolls Wood. It is full of deer, squirrels and many varieties of birds, it also includes several large Redwoods and a unique avenue of Monkey Puzzle trees. Deer regulary visit the garden, badgers have a home on the front drive, owls and bats are common as is the local fox.
Within walking distance is the beautiful Rushmere Park. This is a popular tourist attraction with its woodland trails and picnic areas and magnificent trees. Treetops cafe has wonderful views for those appreciating a sedate visit.
Further afield visitors can go to Bletchley Park, the code breaking centre of WW2. Woburn Abbey, with its safari Park and grand old golf courses are nearby. Not forgetting Waddesdon Manor and Whipsnade zoo.
