Highgrove House United Kingdom
Holiday Home Rental Description
Highgrove House holds a wonderfully tranquil position set amongst unspoilt countryside, less than twenty minutes from the popular market town of Saffron Walden. Cambridge and London are both within easy reaching distance of the house and so there is plenty to see, do and explore in the surrounding area.
The architect-owned and designed “Eco” home has been finished to an incredibly high standard with elegant interiors throughout and all the mod cons you could possibly need. The light-filled home features floor to ceiling windows and doors which really help to bring the outdoors in and allow guests to make the most of the beautiful surroundings. Highgrove House can comfortably accommodate up to fourteen guests across its seven well-appointed bedrooms. On the split-level ground floor, are the first three bedrooms while the remaining four are upstairs, six of the bedrooms have en-suite facilities. Three of the bedrooms can be set up with twin single beds on request, ideal for friends or siblings to share.
Outside, those fortunate enough to enjoy a stay here will love exploring the manicured gardens which are surrounded by wildlife-rich countryside. In the warmer months, dreamy afternoons will be spent lazing by the pool while the outside kitchen makes al fresco dining a breeze.
