The Old Basing Retreat is a sleek three-bedroom, 2-bathroom (one en-suite WC) home in the thatched, historically village of Old Basing. The property is only a very short walk away from Old Basing House. A hugely significant site featuring ruins of the largest private house in Tudor England, which once rivalled Hampton Court Palace! Built between 1532-1561 on a Norman site. With a wonderful walled garden and a 17th-century Great Barn and visitors centre. Ghost tours available around Halloween!! The property its self has a modern open-plan kitchen leads to a contemporary dining and living area—accessed via a separate snug—which opens onto a private landscaped garden with al fresco dining. The garden is wonderful for entertaining an outdoor table seating 6 and a BBQ. To the rear of the garden in a separate home office or Gym. The beautiful village boast wonderful country walks, and parks for children of all ages straight from the doorstep. An award winning Bakery is only 100 yards away, three pubs within walking distance to include The Barton Mill having a wonderful clear stream running through its garden. Also the property has off-road parking for two cars and fast fibre Wi-Fi. Which is perfect for working from home. Basingstoke is a 5-minute drive or 30-minute stroll to the town centre where many shops can be found and direct fast trains to London Waterloo. Also worth noting The Bombay Sapphire distillery is a short away and great fun! Ifly, bowing, ice rink (which hold ice hockey matches) are but a few things to do whist visiting.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.
