Grafton Cottages

Grafton Cottages Three distinctly unique self-catering properties in Northamptonshire Countryside run by husband and wife team Tim and Nicky.

Set in the the rural countryside of South Northamptonshire, Grafton Cottages are nestled in the picturesque village of Blisworth. Grafton Cottages offer a collection of 3 distinctly unique properties situated in the grounds of Grafton Villa, a country home built by the Earl of Grafton in 1837 to show off the Northampton stone. Some years later the house became home to the local Doctor and the cott

age provided the waiting room and dispensary for his patients. Over time both the cottage, the house and other outbuildings fell into a state of disrepair but both the house, cottage and stables have now all been lovingly restored. Grafton Cottages are ideally located for walkers, with Blisworth boasting an abundance of beautiful walks. The cottage is within easy walking distance of the canal and Blisworth Marina. There is also a lovely walk along the towpath to the famous Blisworth tunnel and barge trips from Blisworth to Stoke Bruerne (and further afield) are available. Northamptonshire boasts a wealth of stately homes and museums - all within easy reach, as is the quaint town of Towcester and the Silverstone race circuit. A bus stop serving Towcester and/or Northampton is situated right outside the house.

It’s been a tough decision to make but Tim and I have decided to sell our lovely home after best part of 20 years spent transforming it from the almost derelict building it was when we first bought it. We’re very proud of the way we transformed the place but it’s time to move to the next adventure - hopefully some travelling in a camper van! this special house needs a special buyer - it’s a wonderful home and either a great little business (we Airbnb) or room for offices/extended family. Please share. The perfect match is out there somewhere!
