A perfect holiday hideaway!

The house is situated in a beautiful spot, surrounded with very well maintained gardens. The cricket ground facing provided matches that entertained all the family. There are many different walks immediately from the house into fantastic heathland. The house is extremely comfy and very well provisioned, our party of 8 could find different places to relax and read or play. Would thoroughly recommend a stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Shelley Grisley

We have lived in Blackheath for 20+ years raising our family and now enjoy travelling and welcoming people to our home. We also love walking, cycling, yoga and healthy living.

Before Blackheath we lived abroad and visited the U.S. extensively. Prior to this, we are both Londoners - Blackheath offers us beautiful country living but is just a short trip away from London - one of the greatest cities in the world!

We own and successfully let out apartments in Cannes and London so we understand how to make the experience perfect for our customers - in fact, we take pride in seeing our customers happy and getting the most out of their stay. Small things such as good quality beds and 100% Egyptian cotton bed linen/ fluffy soft cotton towels make a big difference and sets us apart from many other holiday lets.

Why they chose this property

Great location - private but part of a vibrant country village, in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, perfectly placed for hiking, cycling or just visiting beautiful English villages, pubs and restaurants. Or simply enjoy watching a cricket match from the balcony or garden - nothing more English than sitting outside the cricket pavilion drinking a gin and tonic!

What makes this property unique

Fully-equipped Chalon kitchen with 4-oven Aga, dishwasher, and of course, Nespresso coffee machine! Next to the kitchen is the Conservatory for dining and the Utility Room with American-style fridge-freezer, laundry machine & dryer.

The Sonos music system in 4 zones of the house provides the perfect soundtrack for an evening spent dining inside or outside. You can choose the dining room with open fireplace, glass conservatory with a view of the cricket pitch or outside on the patio next to the giant Green Egg BBQ under the retractable awning & outdoor heaters.

Canadian Spa spa-style hot tub for up to 5 people is tucked away in a garden overflowing with greenery.

Located in the village of Blackheath surrounded by heathlands in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - an ideal stay for any ramblers, cyclists, hikers, dog walkers & families!
