About this cottage rental
Immerse yourself in a piece of history.
Welcome to Cliveden Stud's Garden Cottage, a beautifully appointed 3-bedroom holiday retreat nestled in the heart of the historic Cliveden Stud Estate previously owned by Lord William Astor, 3rd Viscount Astor, Member of the House of Lords and MP for Fulham East and Wycombe. The family were active in thoroughbred horse racing on the Stud and produced numerous Ascot Winning race horses.
Our cottage was routinely visited by Lord John Profumo, Secretary of State for War and 19-year-old model Christine Keeler in 1961, also known as the 'Profumo Affair'.
Surrounded by 160 acres of private countryside Ground, Horse Stables and unkept Racing Fields immediately within the Cliveden Stud Ground.
Just a stone’s throw from the grand Cliveden House and its iconic National Trust gardens spanning over 3,000 acres across the road. This cottage offers a peaceful escape with modern comforts and timeless charm.
Upstairs, the property features three spacious double bedrooms—ideal for families or small groups. A well-equipped bathroom is also located upstairs, offering a bath, overhead shower, sink, and toilet for a comfortable and convenient stay.
Downstairs, guests are greeted by a generously sized open-plan kitchen and living area. The fully equipped kitchen is perfect for home cooking and includes premium appliances such as a Nespresso coffee machine, kettle, toaster, Nutribullet juicer, air fryer, washing machine, and dedicated dryer. A large Samsung fridge freezer is also provided, along with essentials like tea, coffee, sugar, sweeteners, sauces, and condiments to get you started.
The open-plan layout connects the kitchen to a bright and inviting living room that overlooks a wildflower paddock—a perfect view for your morning coffee or evening unwind. The lounge includes two large sofas (which can double as extra sleeping spaces), a large smart TV equipped with a Firestick, and access to all premium entertainment, including Sky, Sports, and Movies.
Step outside to enjoy the private and cosy garden, which features a Lay-Z-Spa hot tub for guest use—a luxurious touch for relaxing after a day of exploring the countryside. Whether you’re soaking in the tub under the stars or enjoying a drink on the patio, the outdoor space is designed for comfort and serenity.
Parking is easy and convenient, with three dedicated guest spaces located on the right side of the property, clearly marked with “Guest Reservation” signs.
While there is no dedicated electric vehicle charging station at the property, guests are welcome to use the weatherproof 13AMP 3-pin socket located on the house exterior next to the parking area—ideal for slow overnight charging if needed.
The property is located directly across the road from the prestigious 5-star Cliveden House Hotel, where stays start at approximately £2,000 per night, offering a glimpse into world-class luxury. Next door lies the stunning Cliveden National Trust estate, providing guests with immediate access to some of England’s most celebrated gardens and woodland walks. Also immediately in the area is the home of Michellin Star Restuarants dotted around Beaconsfield, Marlow, Cookham and Maindenhead, All within 10-15 minutes drive along with several other local amenities that make this a truly convenient and luxurious countryside escape.
