Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bradwell Common

Sally (aka ‘Sal’) couldn’t do enough for us and was available as needed throughout our stay. She is a lovely lady having travelled the world and has many a story to tell. Sally’s cottage and its surroundings retains all the romantic comforts of a building of its age from the rickety floors to the large open inglenook fireplace. The property doesn’t have running water downstairs but the bathroom upstairs has both hot and cold running water. It took us no time to master the kitchenette using spring water for cooking and water from the well for washing up - this is all part of the charm and romance of this property. The River Lea flows gently through the gardens of the property bringing with it many of the local water birds. The gardens are so peaceful - there’s no main roads outside but you can be in the village of Wheathampstead by car in about 10 minutes where we also went for a pizza one evening. The walking in this area is beautiful and we would not hesitate to stay here again!

Wow! Our group of 9 ladies have had the most amazing weekend at this lovely property. We loved the warm welcome from the hosts & very much appreciated the goodies left out for us & helpful instructions. We were lucky to have beautiful sunshine, enabling us to make the most of the wonderful garden. We enjoyed the hot tub, sauna and making s’mores in the hobbit hut, as well as yoga on the lawn & watercolour painting under the apple tree - a truly blissful girls’ weekend! The bunnies & Welly the pig were gorgeous! The house was clean & there was plenty of room for the 9 of us, we barely used the lounge and dining room! We also hired the games barn & it was like having our own little pub & a great evening’s entertainment. We would have loved to have stayed longer & tried out the pizza oven. We enjoyed a long walk including the spooky railway tunnel & a great meal over the road at the pub. We couldn’t have asked for more and would love to return! Thank you Hannah & Noel :)

had such an amazing getaway, wished we could have stayed for longer! lynden was so helpful and responsive to our messages, the place was spotless, and andy gave us a lovely tour of the farm! can’t wait to return :)

We had a lovely and comfortable stay at Liz's house. She has been very kind and really helped us enjoy our stay at her place. House was clean, communication fluent and the garden is amazing. Our kids loved playing the toys in the house

Really lovely place to stay and Jess was a very friendly and proactive host! Slightly tricky to find but Jess was really helpful with giving what3words coordinates and sharing maps.

We just spent 2 nights at Fred and Charlotte's glamping retreat - and what a weekend! In a peaceful and private location, the accommodation is beautifully clean, well-equipped and was absolutely perfect for our group of 14! Especially loved the hot tub, fire pit area, spacious kitchen/ dining room and the on-site bar! We even had a yoga class in the field alongside the surrounding cows and horses! I would highly recommend to any other large groups looking for somewhere to stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Had a fantastic weekend here celebrating for a hen weekend! The place was perfect to accommodate a large group, big enough for communal socialising but also enough private spaces. Cathy was fantastic at communicating and was happy to provide extras where needed. Brilliant location, stunning views and easy to get to Cambridge centre! Would definitely stay here again.

Just got home from a lovely, relaxing stay here. Met up with 5 friends who now live all over the country and this was a great, central location. Tom met us as we arrived and showed us how everything worked. House was clean with some quirky lamps, each bedroom had an en-suite plus kettle and cups. The hot tub was a perfect addition. Lost many an hour chatting away while sat in it. Would definitely stay again.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this immaculate home in Oxford. The house is beautifully furnished with a perfect blend of comfort and style—every detail felt thoughtfully curated. The back garden was a real highlight: peaceful, well-maintained, and perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Everything was spotless on arrival, and the host made us feel incredibly welcome. Highly recommend for anyone looking a relaxing and elegant stay in Oxford.

Beautiful bungalow, very spacious, felt very homely and comfortable, great quiet location and not far for a trip out to places close by

This was booked a few weeks before we stayed and suited us to the ground. Bicester Village was the perfect place close by to get to Oxford by train. Easy to get to Blenheim Palace for their opening Christmas Weekend and Festival of illuminations. The Property had everything you could wish for, air Fryer, Washer, Dryer, Dishwasher, Fridge etc Christmas really did start early for as we were leaving with over an inch of snow on the Green and then 2 hours driving home in a Blizzard.

Old English cottage in the middle of the countryside. Andy had thought of all amenities and was extremely personable and hospitable. It felt like a museum in places what with old telephones and old iMac computer screens on display. We stayed as two families (4 kids in total) and had a great time. Thanks Andy!

Julie was really helpful straight away - even before we’d booked when asking for recommendation. The accommodation was lovely and just what we were looking for. Carrots to feed the donkeys were great too! Thank you xx

Katrien's cottage was ideal for our stay in Oundle. Close to the centre of town, walkable in 5 - 10 minutes. The cottage was very clean and very well equipped with plenty of choice of crockery and glassware. a very well equipped kitchen. Katrien has taken a lot of thought into the decor and ambience of the property. The bedrooms were a good size, very comfortable beds and lovely crisp linen. a well appointed shower room, which was spotlessly clean. Katrien is a great host. She was very helpful finding on street parking. Her communication is very personable and her response time very quick.

It was a privilege to be able to stay in such a beautiful setting. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surrounding countryside. The cottage was very homely and we really appreciated the provisions provided. Personally, I was in horse heaven! Thank you so much, Caroline, Roger and Lucy. We definitely would want to come back.

We had a wonderful stay at Clare’s place. The setting was beautiful, the house was exactly as described, and we all felt very at home there. Clare provided lots of local information which was really useful so that we could make the most of our stay. The village was tranquil and exactly what we were looking for - a local pub within walking distance and some great walks from the house. Clare’s place was clean, homely, and made for an excellent stay which three generations of our family could all enjoy and make memories there. I can certainly see us returning!

From 1st contact, Patricia was quick to reply & friendly. Her lodge was spotless and equipped with everything u cld want. Welcome pack of bread / milk etc such a lovely thought. Flowers and plants around the lodge are absolutely beautiful! The park itself is so peaceful. Would definately recommend

Fantastic location, would definitely recommend and stay again!

We were greeted well upon arrival. They showed and explained everything. We were also lucky to see beautiful peacocks on the territory. The house corresponds to the description and photos. There is a good sauna, a large pool and there is a passage from a small goubina to a large one. The jacuzzi is also large. Everything is clean and neat, we liked it, the child is delighted, we will definitely come again.🙃

We thoroughly enjoyed the house and location. Although not Sians issue, construction near the train station makes it difficult to get into town by taxi because you have to go around the city. However, if you don’t mind walking and bicycling, there are exceptional bike and walking paths right out to the house from Oxford. I’d stay again in a heart beat.

Stephen is amazing, personable, responsive, ready with helpful actionable suggestions if you need them . The place itself is on a beautiful , riverside property, with beautifully maintained garden, swimming pool. It is 10 minutes drive from Peterborough and 25 minutes form Stomford, and has many trails and walks around that you can explore.

I cannot speak more highly about the Gardener’s Cottage. It is a magical retreat that relaxes you instantly. Karen and Phil are amazing hosts and always make us feel really welcome. This is our second stay and we will be back. Do yourselves a favor and book this if you want to enjoy the English countryside amidst amazing walks, lovely pubs, and beautiful historic villages.

A fantastic place for a gathering with friends. The games room is exceptional and the pool great. Flexible bed arrangements meant all 8 of us were catered for. The kitchen is very well equipped for catering to everyone. Really recommend

What a wonderful place to stay! We had a great weekend at stable cottage, location exactly as described, beautiful setting and really comfy beds! The amenities in the place were great and we really enjoyed the log fire in the evenings. Would definitely recommend!
