Magical and Romantic Countryside Getaway Near Windsor Castle

The Little Hideaway () is magical large one bedroom studio, and the perfect getaway for couples or for families up to four. This charming and newly finished two storey property is on a private estate once owned by King Henry 8th. This old estate sits on nine acres and lies directly opposite the magnificent Windsor Great Park, and on the approach to the Little Hideaway there are amazing views across to Windsor Castle. The Little Hideaway is situated off a quiet country road and up a long driveway. It is nestled between an old oak tree and the Little Dower House (www.littledowerhouse.com), the lovely house and garden where the owners Susie and Hamish live. For larger groups the Victorian Lodge (www.victorianlodge.co.uk) can also be made available. It is situated on the property at the entrance to the driveway, and is a quintessentially English Country Cottage that sleeps up to 7. The Little Hideaway is a secluded retreat in a tranquil corner of the countryside, where you can take time to rest and relax. It has everything you should need. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a cooker, microwave, and dishwasher, a dining area that seats four, and a cold room / larder with a large fridge freezer. The Hallway has a cupboard for your coats, a boot box for your Wellies, and separate cupboards housing a washing machine and a tumble dryer. The Shower Room has a strong shower with two heads, one large fixed rose and a separate hand held. There is also a basin, a loo and nice heated towel rail. Heading upstairs takes you to the Sitting Room and the large bedroom. Here there is a sitting area with a very comfortable sofa, an armchair and coffee table, cupboards for clothes and storage, and a 42" internet enabled television with multi channel Sky. A candlelit fireplace which is decorative sits in the middle of the room, with a small double sofa bed opposite. An extra fold out bed can be provided by prior arrangement. At the end of the room is a Super King size bed (which separates into twin beds), a chest of drawers, a pretty window seat and a little door that leads onto a balcony which has a table and chairs, where you can sit in the morning sunshine. This wonderfully cosy and calm studio is situated within the pretty gardens of Little Dower House, which are private but can be viewed on request. There is the magnificent Windsor Great Park right opposite which has endless beautiful walks throughout, and places to picnic and watch the world go by. Take a walk in the famous Valley or Savill Gardens, or watch a few chukkas being played at Guards Polo ground. There is private parking, polo ponies in the field opposite, great walks, great pubs minutes away, the beautiful town of Windsor with it's Castle, Thorpe Park and Legoland just nearby, and central London only 35 minutes away by train, and Heathrow airport 20 minutes away by car. The area is great for couples, country lovers, townies, food lovers, gardeners, riders, polo players, golfers and walkers too. There is a traditional English pub only 5 minutes away, The Fox and Hounds in Englefield Green , situated by the Bishops Gate entrance into the Great Park , serving simply wonderful light bites, great pub food and smart restaurant food. It's the perfect place, and great for lunch, dinner, a snack or a BBQ, and a well earned rest after a walk in the Park. Two minutes away on Crimp Hill is the recently opened Oxford Blue restaurant, with a Chef who trained under Gordon Ramsey. In Old Windsor there is a very cheery Italian and pizza restaurant which is perfect for families, and a Co-Op shop that is open all day every day. In the local village Englefield Green there is the Barlow Mow Brasserie, the Bailey Wick pub, a great Indian restaurant Megna Tandoori and a nice Italian restaurant Caspari. . We live beside the Little Hideaway, and here to help in any way at any time, whilst you are there or away, but we're always very respectful of your privacy.
