Property code: 86894

Set in the Cambridgeshire countryside, this gorgeous farmhouse with a hot tub provides a wonderful holiday home for a family or group of friends looking to celebrate any occasion.

Come together with your nearest and dearest humans and hounds in this stunning holiday home where there’s ample room for everyone, with two dining areas, a lounge, and snug. There’s also a large, enclosed garden that’s perfect for children and pups. The area is awash with dog walks, including through the gorgeous Ferry Meadows Country Park (11 miles). You’ll be 27 miles from beautiful Cambridge too.

The exceptional family home is full of style and elegance, creating a memorable backdrop to your holiday. Enter via the private gates and into the large parking area, before heading through the porch to the interior of the property. The house has a variety of social spaces, including a breakfast room where you can gather to plan your day and a formal dining room for hosting dinner parties and family celebrations. In the evening, retire to the cosy lounge to watch the Smart TV, or unwind in the snug with a good book and the dogs curled at your feet. There are four bedrooms: a super-king-size room, king-size room, and two twins (which can be made up as doubles). Outside, dine alfresco on the patio or sink into your private hot tub, whilst the hounds play on the large, enclosed lawn.

Ferry Meadows in Nene Park makes an excellent family and dog-friendly day out. Enjoy walks with the pups around the lake and through the woodlands, before grabbing a bite to eat in the woof-welcoming cafe. There’s also a great range of water sports on offer and a huge children’s play area. Step back in time with a ride on the Nene Valley Railway (12.5 miles). Board the steam train with your canine chums to chug through the picturesque countryside, along the River Nene.
