St Peter's Cottage, Essex countryside

New build house in outstanding countryside location. Half acre (2000 m2) garden surrounded by open fields with views across the Blackwater River valley in every direction. The house is located next to the ancient monument of St Peter's Church, dating from the 11th century and now a stained glass artists studio. The space We are delighted to be able to make the cottage available for holidays and long weekends with the opportunity to relish the tranquility of this location and as a base for exploring the outstanding Essex coast and countryside. And with London just 40mins away by train from Witham station (2.5 miles/4km) the capital is in easy reach for sightseeing. The cottage has an open-plan living space across the whole first floor comprising a generous living room and kitchen dinning area. The space has large picture windows with views over the garden, adjacent church and fields beyond. This is a space that connects with nature and will allow you to enjoy this outstanding setting in any season and in any weather. On the ground floor there are three good-sized bedrooms and a bathroom/toilet. Each bedroom has its own character and lend themselves to flexible accommodation. The green room has a kingsize double bed; the pink room and blue room can be set up as either twin or double beds. The cottage has been equipped with new furniture, fittings and appliances throughout, chosen to make every stay trouble free and relaxing. Guest access This is a perfect choice for families who are looking for wide open spaces and a wealth of attractions and places of interest. The garden has a stream running through it which is perfect for paddling but small children must be monitored at all times. There are bicycles available to use and a ping-pong table. There is an outdoor barbecue and we recommend Little Mountain Farm's homegrown meat; the farm can be found in Great Totham. The garden area is spacious with shaded spots and open space for games playing. Other things to note The stream in the garden is a hazard for small children so you must ensure that small children are supervised at all times. But it is a great place to paddle and have fun, just with an adult on hand.
