1 Bed Lodge in Great Sampford

About this property

Tucked away in the quiet village of Great Sampford, this charming getaway for two is ideally placed for slow days in the countryside and discovering some of Essex and Suffolk’s prettiest spots. Just 9 miles away, Audley End Gardens is a great spot for a day out – wander through the pretty flowerbeds, check out the walled kitchen garden, and treat yourself to something tasty at the tearoom. If golf’s on the agenda, take your pick between the laid-back Haverhill Golf Club (8.5 miles), the challenging Saffron Walden (9 miles), or Clare Park Lake Golf Course (13 miles), all of which offer sweeping countryside views with every swing. For something gentler, visit Finchingfield (5 miles), a postcard-pretty village with winding streets, a friendly pub and a charming atmosphere. Cambridge (20 miles) offers a memorable day, with museums and galleries, punting tours, and plenty of dining options.

Entering your hideaway, the open-plan space welcomes relaxation with inspiration drawn from farmhouse animals, adding a touch of rustic charm. The kitchen area, situated along one wall, has everything needed to make home-cooked meals a breeze, while the dining table serves just as well for a lazy breakfast as it does for a candlelit dinner. Evenings are best spent curled up on the deep sofa with a warming drink and something mesmerising on the screen. When it’s time to rest, the double bedroom is an inviting space featuring neutral tones with pretty decor. Before you head out for the day, freshen up in the modern en-suite shower room.

Outside, there’s a private seating area with a table and chairs for those sunny morning coffees accompanied by lush rolling views. There’s also parking for one car, so you can come and go with ease.
