About this property

Cottage The Tack Room at Wallis Farm House

A characterful conversion comprising a sitting/dining room, fully equipped kitchen, double bedroom and shower room.
Wallis Farmhouse is a late Georgian farmhouse in the picturesque village of Hardwick. We provide a variety of self-catering accommodation, close to the city of Cambridge in England. The house stands in extensive gardens adjoining our meadows and woodland, which border the Wimpole Way. Hardwick is 5 miles from the university city of Cambridge, and 15 miles from Ely and Newmarket.

We have six individual self-catering Barns and Cottage at Wallis Farm, each with its own unique character, and offering a variety of accommodation for two to four people. The first three are in a converted barn across the courtyard from the Farmhouse. Many of the original features of the building have been retained, and the rooms are furnished and equipped to a high standard. The second three are in modern L- shaped building and have views over the gardens and farmland. One Cottage has been adapted with a ramp for wheelchair access and a bathroom modified for people with mobility problems. All our accommodation has gas central heating with TV and internet access. Towels and Linen is provided.
