Walden House is set in a stunning location and is just a few short miles away from the stunning English Heritage Audley End House, as well as the mainline train station to London, Cambridge and Stansted Airport. This area of north Essex is famous for its country setting and is often referred to as 'Essex's Best Kept Secret'. You'll be able to benefit from the castle garden and grounds, long walks, nature reserves, swimming baths, cobbled streets, listed buildings and architecture as well as much more. Do you want to get out and explore? A 25-minute drive will see you travel to Bishops Stortford, Stansted Mountfitchet Castle or the glorious village green and duck pond at Finchingfield. A little further and you can be in Great Dunmow.
The city of Cambridge can be easily reached. Here you can enjoy a city of culture, numerous shops, restaurants and pubs, museums, Botanical Gardens and even a spot of punting on the River Cam. London is 45 miles away and again can be reached in just over an hour by train or car so if you fancy travelling further afield, taking in some of the capital's highlights or a theatre trip then it is easily done! Fancy a day beside the seaside? Privet House is in a fantastic location so you can get to the Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex coastlines (and back) in a day. With lots of day out opportunities from your doorstep, make Cambridge House the base for your adventure. Enjoy the sights or simply relax, unwind and enjoy the luxury that is on offer.

We have a garage and there is a large car park across the road that is a 3 minute walk. There is a parking bay right outside the house for either parking or unloading with signed restrictions.
Note from owner: If you see the same property with the same pictures, multiple times, it's because we have various listings of the same property but are offering different configurations for different size groups. Basically, we lock or unlock the required or unrequired number of bedrooms. As soon as a guest books the dates they want for the configuration that suits them, the system synchronises the calenders of the other listings and makes them unavailable. It will not allow more than one guest to book for the same dates. Whoever stays has complete privacy and exclusive access to all amenities listed during their stay. We also list all of our properties on different sites, but wherever you book or message, you will always come through to me. Best wishes. Damian
Property policy: the primary guest must be at least 18 years old
