About this property

Nut Cottage

Step back in time to this 70s-inspired cottage set in its own private orchard near Bushy Park.

Enjoy the luxury of soaking in a hot bath on the covered deck, whatever the weather. Perfect for couples wanting to get away from it all, or small families. You can be completely private or wander round the working walnut farm with its extensive gardens and menagerie.

Please note that while cottage has a kitchenette, there is also a firepit and BBQ outside. In keeping with the vintage theme, the cottage has a well stocked library, plenty of board games and DVDs (sorry no wifi or TV reception). While we may not have all the mod cons but actually, that's what our guests prefer! It’s a great place to dial things back and enjoy a slower pace of life with the farms seasonal variety.

The cottage has private drive access and use of it's own orchard block, complete with hammock swinging in the shade of walnut trees. Pets are welcome, please note along with our stock we also have farm dogs. The dogs are usually working with us and are locked up at night but they will greet you when you arrive (and possibly when using the BBQ).
Make yourself comfortable in this accommodation, featuring a kitchenette with a refrigerator and a kitchen island. Conveniences include a coffee/tea maker and an iron/ironing board.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.
