About this property

Cottage The Tack Room at Wallis Farm House

A characterful conversion comprising a sitting/dining room, fully equipped kitchen, double bedroom and shower room.
Wallis Farmhouse is a late Georgian farmhouse in the picturesque village of Hardwick. We provide a variety of self-catering accommodation, close to the city of Cambridge in England. The house stands in extensive gardens adjoining our meadows and woodland, which border the Wimpole Way. Hardwick is 5 miles from the university city of Cambridge, and 15 miles from Ely and Newmarket.

We have six individual self-catering Barns and Cottage at Wallis Farm, each with its own unique character, and offering a variety of accommodation for two to four people. The first three are in a converted barn across the courtyard from the Farmhouse. Many of the original features of the building have been retained, and the rooms are furnished and equipped to a high standard. The second three are in modern L- shaped building and have views over the gardens and farmland. One Cottage has been adapted with a ramp for wheelchair access and a bathroom modified for people with mobility problems. All our accommodation has gas central heating with TV and internet access. Towels and Linen is provided.

Quiet and very comfortable

Convenient for Cambridge and our family which lives nearby. We did very little food prep just eating breakfast as we were out with the family most of the time. We will probably be back next year.

A welcoming, cozy and comfy place

We stayed in the Tack Room. The rooms are very clean and the grounds are beautiful and well kempt. The kitchen is tiny - just fine for tea , coffee, breakfast and some basic cooking. It was nice to find some tea, coffee, sugar and milk left for us. Pleasnt interiors with plenty of space for organising things. Extremely comfy bed! It was quite cold weather but heating worked well. The is owner is very friendly and helpful. Perfect place for visiting Cambrige. Will come again. Thank you Will.
