Description

The Little Hideaway is a romantic and rather magical studio, which makes the perfect getaway.

This charming and newly finished two storey property is on a private estate once owned by King Henry 8th. This old estate sits on nine acres and lies directly opposite the magnificent Windsor Great Park, and on the approach to the Little Hideaway there are amazing views across to Windsor Castle.

The Little Hideaway is an idyllic retreat with a luxurious feel, which beautifully combines understated chic with rustic charm in a traditional countryside setting.

The Little Hideaway is situated off a quiet country road and up a long driveway. It is nestled between an old oak tree and the Little Dower House, the lovely house and garden where the owners Susie and Hamish live.

For larger groups the Victorian Lodge can also be made available for rent. It is situated on the property at the entrance to the driveway, and is a quintessentially English Country Cottage that sleeps up to 7.

The Little Hideaway is a secluded retreat in a tranquil corner of the countryside, where you can take time to rest and relax. It has everything you should need. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a cooker, microwave, and dishwasher, a dining area that seats four, and a cold room / larder with a large fridge freezer.

The Hallway has a cupboard for your coats, a boot box for your Wellies, and separate cupboards housing a washing machine and a tumble dryer.

The Shower Room has a strong shower with two heads, one large fixed rose and a separate hand held. There is also a basin, a loo and nice heated towel rail.

Heading upstairs takes you to the Sitting Room and Bedroom.

Here there is a sitting area with a very comfortable sofa, an armchair and coffee table, cupboards for clothes and storage, and a 42" internet enabled television with multi channel Sky.

A candlelit fireplace which is decorative sits in the middle of the room, with a small double sofa bed opposite. An extra fold out bed can be provided by prior arrangement.

At the end of the room is a Super King size bed (which separates into twin beds), a chest of drawers, a pretty window seat and a little door that leads onto a balcony which has a table and chairs, where you can sit in the morning sunshine.

Interaction with guest

Susie and Hamish will be there to welcome you, to show you around the property, hand over the keys, and, if asked, offer advice on where best to go for shopping, eating out and sightseeing. They live right alongside the property, so they are there to help at any time in any way they can. However, they are very respectful of their guests' privacy.

“Fantastic Hideaway”

Reviewed 28 Sep 2021

This is the second time my husband and I have stayed at the Little Hideaway. It’s beautifully decorated and very well equipped. It’s peaceful and tranquil, and the gardens are lovely. Hamish and Susie are brilliant hosts, they’ve really gone out of their way to make sure your stay is enjoyable. Lots of thoughtful touches like a well stocked hamper, and flowers from the gardens. The Little Hideaway is conveniently located very close to the Great Park, great if you like walking, and there are lots of nice places to eat out close by too. We wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Windsor and thoroughly recommend!

“Romantic comfort”

Reviewed 30 Aug 2020

The Hideaway is very romantic accommodation that has all the home comforts, plus a warm welcome from Hamish and Susie. It is tucked away in very pretty grounds. We especially enjoyed the walled garden. It was more than we were looking to pay initially, but we didn't regret stretching the budget and will definitely return.
