About this property
Georgian Gate House - Three Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 5
Step through the stone-columned portico and into the timeless charm of Georgian Gate House, a beautifully restored Grade II listed cottage set at the entrance to Wolterton Park. Surrounded by peaceful meadows and enclosed by traditional estate fencing, this elegant three-bedroom retreat offers a slice of refined countryside living.
Inside, the atmosphere is warm and inviting — from the glow of the open fire in the sitting room to the wood-panelled dining room perfect for leisurely dinners. The kitchen, with its freestanding units and characterful quirks, opens onto a sunny breakfast area where mornings begin slowly, with coffee and garden views. Bedrooms are dressed in crisp Egyptian linens, with two stylish ensuites featuring cast iron baths and period fittings.
Wander outside into your own private garden, ideal for evening barbecues or a quiet moment beneath the trees. And when the mood strikes, stroll just minutes down the lane to The Saracen’s Head — a friendly Georgian inn serving hearty, seasonal fare. Guests are also welcome to explore the majestic Hall and its vast parkland, where stories of the past unfold with every step. A tranquil hideaway, full of history, character and charm.
