Discover the beautifully renovated two-bedroom Hazel Rose Cottage, a coach house above the garaging of Longlands Farmhouse, set in the tranquil and unique surroundings of Longlands Lakes. This magical, secluded location is tucked away on a private island, surrounded by the lakes and waterways of the Cambridgeshire Fens, offering an idyllic retreat for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The island lodge is encircled by serene lakes stocked with fish, ensuring a peaceful and secluded atmosphere. Guests can explore the lakes at their leisure, with access to walk around the waters anytime they wish. For those with an adventurous side, you are welcome to bring your own kayaks and canoes or take advantage of the fishing services available (from summer 2025 onwards). One of the most unique aspects is the experience of driving over the private bridge to reach your island haven – a truly memorable arrival. The island lodge occupies the first floor above a garage, with a spacious, open-plan living area comprising a kitchenette, lounge, and dining space. The kitchenette is equipped with a microwave, air fryer, kettle, fridge, and toaster for your convenience. Both bedrooms are generously sized one king-size and one double, ensuring a comfortable stay for all guests. The main bathroom features a large shower, basin, and WC, plus there is an additional WC for extra convenience. With a large smart TV, comfortable corner sofa seating, Wi-Fi, and ample parking, the property offers all the comforts of home. A handy storage area is available for luggage on the ground floor, and guests should note steps are required to access the apartment on the first floor. Guests will share the main island with the house and its resident but will have sole and full access to the rest of the lakes. Guests are welcome to explore and enjoy picnics around the lakes. Please note that access to the property requires driving through a yard to get around the house.
