    “A beautiful bijou retreat situated right by the moat on the lovely estate of Columbine Hall.”

    Took our little dog who enjoyed the cosy log burner as much as we did. A couple of things to note for future occupants - there really is no wi-fi, telephone signal or tv, but once we got used to this we really enjoyed being ‘off-grid’ and played cards and read in the evening (take your own games!). Also there is no hair-dryer, so take your own if this is essential for you. It mentions in the description that there is a dishwasher, in fact there is a washing machine which isn’t really ...

    Took our little dog who enjoyed the cosy log burner as much as we did. A couple of things to note for future occupants - there really is no wi-fi, telephone signal or tv, but once we got used to this we really enjoyed being ‘off-grid’ and played cards and read in the evening (take your own games!). Also there is no hair-dryer, so take your own if this is essential for you. It mentions in the description that there is a dishwasher, in fact there is a washing machine which isn’t really needed for short breaks so might be better replaced with a dishwasher in the future. Apart from these minor points, it really is a fabulous place to stay!

It overlooks the moat that surrounds the Hall and offers a peaceful escape for couples who are free to wander in the Hall’s renowned 5-acre garden for walks and picnics. There is also a small separate enclosed courtyard for the Clock Tower’s exclusive use furnished with table and chairs where you can savour a quiet morning coffee, an evening glass of wine or alfresco dining. Two well-behaved pets are welcome. This single-storey studio provides a tranquil base for exploring the surrounding area. Inside, you’ll find a bright and thoughtfully arranged open-plan living space. The sitting area is perfect for relaxing beside the woodburning stove. The kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, hob, kettle, toaster, washing machine and microwave —ideal for preparing delicious meals to enjoy at the dining table.
