About this property

Cowmans Cottage is one of seventeen holiday cottages at Town Farm, on the edge of the Chilterns. We are a working arable farm, with some sheep over the surrounding hills, we are lucky to have views over to Ivinghoe Beacon on one side, and Aylesbury Vale on the other. All the cottages each have their own unique charm, and we also run a campsite during the summer months. The `Pick Your Own` opens in June and guests can take a picnic and stock up on fruit and vegetables - this is a five minute drive away. It is only a ten minute drive to Tring Railway Station, shops and facilities, or a ten minute walk to Ivinghoe village, with pub, shop and tea room. London Euston is a 40 minute train ride from Tring Station.

The front door opens on to the hallway, with under stairs storage. The ground floor comprises an open plan sitting and dining room, with a separate kitchen and enclosed patio area.

The kitchen is fully equipped with cooker, microwave, fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer.

The sitting room has comfortable sofas, a flat screen TV and dining table with six chairs. Access to the courtyard patio area from the sitting room

Upstairs there are three bedrooms (one double and two twins) and a family bathroom. The bathroom includes an over bath power shower.

The property has access to a tennis court available to hire, games room and a children`s play area on the farm. Cowmans is centrally heated by oil. Parking for two cars is available at the front of the property.

Summer getaway

We stayed with you 10 years ago so we were aware of the great location, the cleanliness of the properties, and we were definitely not disappointed this time, fresh flowers and eggs were a lovely touch. Cottage was very well presented, everything looked and smelled clean. Definitely will and have already recommend to others.

Fantastic cottage and location

Stayed at Christmas for the second year in a row. It’s such a lovely spot. Cottage is so cosy, but also has loads of space, and is very well equipped and immaculately clean. Booking and check in is great - everything is so well organised.

Cowman’s Cottage

A months stay whilst waiting for our new house to be ready was made a very enjoyable experience. We were made very welcome and Cowman’s Cottage provided more than adequately for our needs.

About the host

Hosted by Town Farm Cottages, Ivinghoe

I originally come from Cape Town, South Africa, and my home is now on the farm in Ivinghoe. My husband's family have owned Town Farm since the 1930's, it is an arable farm, with some sheep farming. Our brother in law also has a "Pick your own" just down the road, with everything from Asparagus in Spring, strawberries, and a long list of fresh vegetables throughout the summer into Autumn. We now have 17 cottages on site, which we started converting from barns in 1995. Many of our guests have enjoyed staying with us from all parts of the world and appreciate the beautiful countryside around us and there is always plenty to do.

Why they chose this property

All our properties are comfortably furnished and offer all the convenience of your own home, all with fully equipped kitchens, some with dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. Linen and towels are also provided, together with an information pack in the property, with a list of local activities and things to do.

What makes this property unique

We love the area because you can be in the middle of the countryside one minute and hopping on the train for a 50 minute ride to London the next. The Chilterns offer a wide variety of activities, from National Trust properties, walking through the bluebell woodlands, driving through the picturesque "Midsomer" villages, to visiting Tring Zoological museum, swooping down the real snow in Milton Keynes Snozone, or playing Top Golf in Watford. All within 30/40 minutes of the farm.

We are also close to the Grand Union Canal which stretches from London to Birmingham and which offers leisurely walks and boat hire. We are also only around an hour from Stratford on Avon, a little further to Oxford and Cambridge, and is a good basis for sightseeing.
