Nestled in the picturesque Epping Forest District of Essex, Baldwin's Hill Cottage offers a unique holiday experience in a historic setting once inhabited by Epping Forest Keepers.

The cottage is pet-friendly, making it an ideal getaway for couples, families, and groups of friends looking to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying contemporary comforts.

Upon arrival, guests can take advantage of private parking and explore the beautifully maintained grounds, which feature a wildlife garden designed to attract local fauna. Visitors can expect to see a variety of wildlife, including birds, butterflies, and deer, creating a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. The cottage itself boasts a welcoming porch adorned with stained glass windows, leading into a stylish sitting room equipped with a Smart TV and a woodburning stove, providing an inviting space for social gatherings. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern amenities, including a designer fridge/freezer and a dishwasher, ensuring a convenient self-catering experience.

The dining room, bright and airy, features tasteful forest-themed wallpaper, making it another delightful space for enjoying meals with loved ones. Guests can unwind in the luxurious shower room, which includes a spacious walk-in shower, before retreating to the comfortable bedrooms. The accommodation consists of two double rooms and one single room, all furnished with high-quality Egyptian cotton sheets and ample storage, ensuring a restful night’s sleep for everyone.

Outside, the property continues to impress with its wildlife gardens, complete with a bespoke fire pit and barbecue for alfresco dining. Direct access to Epping Forest offers a wealth of outdoor activities, including walking, cycling, and horse riding. The local town of Loughton, just a short distance away, features a variety of pubs, restaurants, and shops, while nearby towns like Epping and Buckhurst Hill provide even more dining options.
