About this property
Heron’s Nest, with a lovely private garden and use of The Ndoro Pool.
A fabulous cottage, lovingly designed, to created a 'home from home feeling'. A private, south facing garden with stunning views, The woodlands and fields hold an abundance of wildlife and birdlife all of which can be viewed from the property.. Heron's Nest is situated down a quiet lane, 3 miles from the famous town of Royal Wootton Bassett. There are plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. Please be advised changeover days are Mondays and Fridays.
THE NDORO POOL Swimming in the Ndoro Pool, is the most beautiful, memorable experience. The pool has no heating or chemicals, therefore completely natural. Plants, dragonflies, newts, water mussels are some of the wildlife that live happily in the ecosystem. Working with nature and maintaining the biodiversity of the pool is absolutely essential. Although rare, this can mean pool closure, we don't know when it will happen, or indeed, how long it will take to restore the 'natural normal balance'. We trust you understand.

About the host
Hosted by Hillary Walter
We are a family of 5 who have have recently renovated and extended our home and cottage. We love being outside and enjoy gardening. We have a small holding consisting of a variety of chickens, pigs, sheep and two ponies!!
I enjoy making jams, chutneys, cakes etc. Nick (my husband) has just bought a Smoker for fish and meat and has been experimenting with that!
Understandably, our friends call us Tom and Barbara!!
Why they chose this property
We bought Burrington because of its location. We are situated down a very quiet lane surrounded by fields with a view of Tockenham wood, which has Tockenham Lake within it. You could hardly believe we're only 2 miles from Royal Wootton Bassett and therefore have easy access to the M4 - which makes Heron's Nest an easy to get to retreat!!
What makes this property unique
There are plenty of wonderful things to experience whilst staying at Heron's Nest. Most notably the Natural Swimming Pool! A fabulous experience which people come back for! There are wonderful walks in and around us. Plenty of fabulous and interesting towns and cities to visit, Bath, Oxford, Marlborough, Bristol, Castle Combe and the Cotswolds are all within an hours drive
The property itself is well equipped - I have tried to create a home from home kitchen. The sitting room has all the normal appliances one would expect plus a variety of games.
