A large cottage by the walled garden on a peaceful estate with oodles of space for big gatherings and views over a lake and mature trees

This used to be the gardener's cottage so you're near the old walled garden, now complete with a pool, barbecue and fire pit – a grand spot for a picnic so wander down with your bottle of estate wine when the weather is fine. You also have a large terrace, facing southwest with a table for al fresco meals and sun loungers. The upstairs vaulted drawing room is huge with soft sofas and chairs, a log-burner, books and games, long views over the lower lake and a restful feel.

Bedrooms, some downstairs, are well-dressed and have leafy views but most of all they are incredibly peaceful so you should sleep soundly. Wander to the pool for an early morning swim (you'll find towels), eat breakfast in the big friendly kitchen beside another log-burner or be catered for by the chef Becka Cooper who creates delicious meals.

Set off on long walks through the estate with multiple paths, spot many birds, play tennis, or make pizza.

Local points of interest from Tara Howarth:

Tara Howarth:

Lake House Cottage lies in the old walled garden of The Grange Mansion House and set amongst the pleasure gardens of which many trees and features still survive.
Situated within the Estate’s very secluded walled garden and overlooking the lower lake, Lake House Cottage is everything a nature-lover could wish for. Take a walk around the lake to see many species of water-loving creatures.
Hampshire is filled with plenty of things for all manner of tastes. Make the most of what’s on our doorstep by exploring the local scenery on foot, walking along our famous chalk stream rivers. We have miles of curated walking and running routes to share.
The medieval city of Winchester offers visitors a bustling high street with a range of independent stores to potter, roam and while away an afternoon. Moreover, take the opportunity to immerse yourself in the largest farmer’s market in the UK.
Should you ever seek assistance to explore our surroundings, we would be more than happy to guide or inform you of any upcoming local events or new haunts we’ve recently learnt about.
Lake House Cottage once housed the throng of gardeners who tended the walled gardens, supplying fruit and vegetables to the mansion house.
