A Great Atmosphere in and around Millies Cottage
Everything about Millies Cottage was ideal for our needs, the view from the living room and kitchen/dining area was relaxing looking out over the village green, the elevated position reduced any vehicle noise, the rear garden fully enclosed & ideal come the warmer summer months, lots of dog walks on the door step, places to eat & drink, cosy bed, cosy cottage and thank you Shaun for the information and welcome texts. We were visiting family in the area, so ideal for us & will return!

a beautiful cottage in a beautiful village
This was our second visit to Millie's cottage and it was as perfect as before. Really sweet cottage with everything you need including generous outdoor space, and perfectly positioned in the centre of the village. I love eating breakfast at the dining table and watching the world go by!

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
Visit Essex describes Finchingfield as the 'most photographed village in England' and has won awards for its traditional picturesque setting. The combination of duck pond, village green, hump-backed bridge and pub, overlooked by colour-washed cottages, windmill and a medieval church, give it an unbeatable series of views, which are often found on calendars, chocolate boxes, tea towels, postcards and jigsaws.

Millie's Cottage is named after the owner’s grandmother who lived in the cottage with her husband Ernie in the early 1900’s. Ernie was a local farm worker and Millie was a house keeper at Brick House, the property situated near the pond.

The cottage has remained in the family and the owners father, Richard, was born here in 1934. Richard was an organ builder and has played the church organ in the village for the last 60 years. If you stay at the cottage you’ll see an example of his handy work, a coat rack made of oak and the manual pulls from an old organ.

It is a property which holds many memories for the family who hope you have a chance to enjoy it as much as they have.
