About this property

Nestled in the charming location of Burwell in Cambridgeshire is this delightful five-bedroom holiday home, The Haven. Boasting off-road parking, pet-friendly accommodation, and light and airy décor throughout, The Haven welcomes twelve guests and their four-legged friend to enjoy a fun-filled escape in the South of England. Cross the threshold into the property to discover a homely sitting room, perfect for kicking back and unwinding after a long day of exploring the local area; click on the Smart TV to enjoy a range of shows or indulge a movie marathon before rustling up a feast in the well-equipped kitchen. Become accustomed with a great selection of appliances and prepare a tasty dish for the whole family to enjoy around the dining table, toast to a lovely getaway over a bottle of fizz and plan for the days ahead. If you wish to bask in your surroundings a little longer, why not venture out to the rear garden and soak up the last of the suns rays as your pooch plays. When you begin to tire, retreat to a spacious family bathroom to delight in a long soak or revitalising shower, or opt for one of two king-size or a double bedroom, hosting their very own en-suite; an additional double and a family room ensure all sleeping arrangements are catered for. If you can tear yourself away, begin your day with a stroll into Burwell where you can tour the Burwell Museum and Windmill, stock up on the essentials in a handy convenient store or if you don’t feel like cooking, enjoy some hearty fare in one of several pubs or restaurants here. Spend the day in Cambridge, where you can tour The Fitzwilliam Museum, explore the Cambridge University Botanic Garden or enjoy the sites of this charming city via a punting or rowing boat on the River Cam. In Bury St Edmunds, you can relax in the stunning Abbey Gardens, experience a taste of childhood at the National Trust’s Melford Hall which offers a wonderful collection of Beatrix Potter memorabilia, or see where scenes for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows were filmed in Lavenham. However you wish to while the days away in Cambridgeshire, do it from the inviting base of The Haven.

The charming community of Burwell in Cambridgeshire is situated 10 miles to the northeast of Cambridge and provides quick access to the picturesque Thetford Forest Park. A wide variety of amenities are available in the town, including a bakery, two warm pubs that serve delectable food, a gas station with a convenience shop, a Post Office, a recreation centre, and the Burwell Museum and Windmill, where you can find out more about the history of the hamlet. Additionally, a green park situated on the site of the mediaeval Burwell Castle from the 12th century makes for an interesting location for taking in the surroundings. The thriving city of Cambridge, known for its esteemed university as well as its magnificent selection of colleges, is only a short drive away.
