About this property
Newly Refurbished Three Bedroom House on an English Country Estate
Welcome to our newly refurbished, luxury house. Situated in the grounds of a 17th Century Manor House, this self-contained home benefits from its own private entrance, private garden and a games room.
There are over 80 acres of gardens/countryside and a 3km woodland trail for you to explore.
Located on the rural Essex / Suffolk border, we are just 3 miles from Colchester the oldest recorded town in Britain.
This recently refurbished house is on the eastern wing of our Grade II* listed manor house, with its own entrance, private garden with patio furniture and BBQ and unlimited off-street parking.
The house includes two master bedrooms each with a king-size bed, a kids bunk room, a family bathroom and downstairs cloakroom, a full kitchen with all the amenities and a living area with comfortable seating and large SMART TV.
You will have access to 80 acres of estate park land, so bring your bikes (we can safely store them) and your walking/running shoes to explore over 3km of woodland trails.
Enjoy family fun by rowing at our private lake, come and pet the goats, sheep and horses, or borrow a hamper and have a private picnic anywhere on the estate. For an additional charge, you can have exclusive fishing rights for the day on the 1-acre carp lake (home to over a dozen 25lbers).
We have a large outdoor heated pool which you're welcome to enjoy. (As we do have a couple of guesthouses on the estate, we do ask guests to prior book pool times to ensure they have exclusive use of the pool.) Our pool is open from April to September.

- Colchester Zoo
- Colchester Castle
- Stour Valley
- Dedham Vale
- East Anglia Railway Museum
