Deluxe 5 Bedroom Bungalow, Forest Setting, Hot Tub

Extensive Private Gardens | Mapped Country Walks | Outstanding Views | Sky Cinema/Sports/Kids | Cinema Room | Games Room | Pool Table | Adventure Playground | Marble Floors | Marble Worktops | Private Hot Tub | Opposite Famous Dick Turpin Highway | Neighbour To Film Set of Lovejoy | Smart Lock | Electric Car Charger

Cinema Room, Games Room, Hot Tub, Adventure Playground, Pool Table, Air Hockey. On a protected lane of outstanding beauty and set within the grounds of the old territory of Spains Hall, now owned by Jamie Oliver (yes, he will be your neighbour) is this exclusive detached home surrounded by 1.5 acres of private, secluded gardens and benefitting from far reaching country views that will simply take your breath away. Marble floors, granite work tops and stripped floorboards add to the charm.

A place of peace rather than party.

You will not find a more private, peaceful or relaxing setting than this, whilst still being within walking distance to a 5 star Italian restaurant and less than an hour from London and 30 minutes from Cambridge. With treasured public footpaths and country walks galour, right on your doorstep, this is the perfect house for a family break, an easy few days away from the city or a get together for friends and loved ones.

The Famous Essex Highwayman: - 1.5 acres of secluded gardens. Country walks. Public footpaths. The famous walk way used regularly by the infamous Dick Turpin and still sign posted to this day, leading you directly to lavishly preserved Blue Bell In once used as a hideout by Dick himself and today standing strong as a cherished local pub and exemplary restaurant

You can contact me 24 hours a day. We are at your service

The Infamous Criminal Kray Twins and the TV Show Lovejoy: -
We live in this village and can not speak highly enough about it. Since moving here in 2014 we knew more or less instantly that this would be our final resting place and we were not even 40. Who wouldn't be enamoured with having muntjac deer, wild owls, birds of prey, hares, pheasants and storks, roaming your garden every morning. Jamie Oliver is our neighbour, the famous 90's show Lovejoy was filmed regularly on this road and in the next house down. It's a 6 minute drive to the renowned medieval town of Thaxted which was a favourite holiday destination of the notorious Kray Twins of London. In Fact the restaurant and bar they once owned, Parishes, is still standing and is a favourite with locals and buzzing most evenings with walls covered in private memorabilia.

Baby Spice: - This is a protected but well kept Lane which is great for walks, bike rides, roller skates, scooters and Segways. So much so that we have included some bikes and high end Segways for your pleasure. Taxis are easy to phone and book, there is a village bus service a short walk away, but a car is needed when living somewhere like this. Take a Segway ride to Shore Hall which was once owned by Baby Spice

The Sampfords are widely known as Essex best kept secret. You are surrounded by nature, beauty and quite a few famous neighbours. This is not a party town and although your neighbours are only few and not very close by, this is a place of rest and relaxation. Peace and not party. Please come and enjoy.

Most pets are very welcome if their owner takes full responsibility to be sure that no hair, smell, or pet waste is left behind.

Unfortunately, we do not accept large or aggressive breeds of dogs, specifically but not limited to XL BULLY.

Please confirm before booking the number of pets you would like to bring and their breed.

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 calendars 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

Such a great place - and care!
We came as a group of 4 families (16 people with children from 1 to 7) and really enjoyed our extended weekend. The hot tub at night was the highlight treat, the BBQ, the cinema room and the castle playground came second ex-aequo. The owner was close to us, giving us a
