About this property

Beautiful 3000sq foot home in the middle of picturesque Amport.

Stunning open-plan layout designed for modern living, decorated with a feeling of French Country Chic. A stone's throw from our famous village pub, a pretty meandering stream, quintessential village green and gorgeous rambling country walks.

Our house is perfect for a family 4 (as we are) or for entertaining up to 10 guests and consists of:

- Wonderful open plan kitchen, great for entertaining, which opens out onto our large terraced garden via French doors. Our dining table seats 8 comfortably, with extra chairs should you wish to seat 10.

- Open plan sitting room/playroom, which also opens out onto the garden.

- Formal drawing room with wood burner.

- Downstairs loo.

- First floor of house containing 4 x double bedrooms (one with en suite) and 1 x family bathroom. One of the double beds can be set up as 2 x single beds.

- Second floor of house (converted loft) containing 1 x double bedroom with its own shower room.

We have a lovely large landscaped garden, which boarders fields and open countryside.

Our kitchen is fitted with a cosy electric Aga, which is on 24/7 and programmed to be very hot in the evening. You can cook at any time of day in any of the 4 ovens which are listed in order of temperature:
Top right - Roasting Oven
Bottom right - Baking Oven
Bottom left - Simmering Oven
Top left - Warming Oven

There is also an additional electric toaster, kettle and microwave for your use.

You are welcome to use the Nutri Bullet and Nespresso d’Longhi coffee machine (which requires pods).

We are lucky to have fresh drinking water from all taps, but filtered water is also available from the cold tap at the main kitchen sink.

We are very happy to help book lunch or dinner reservations at our lovely local pub (The Hawk) which is accessed through a secret gate in our garden, on your behalf in advance of your arrival.

We can also recommend a wonderful local cook who often prepares food for our guests (either in advance and dropped off to you, or served on site as you wish).

There are lots of pretty walks from our doorstep (for which maps are provided) and there is a footpath that runs alongside our property, which takes you past fields with the friendliest ponies! It can be accessed directly from the gate at the top of the garden.

Our village green is just a 5 minute walk. It is a gorgeous spot for a picnic and is equipped with fab play equipment.

Spacious house, large garden, lovely location
Plenty of room in this family home for 10, and we also had 4 visitors for lunch and still we weren't pushed for space. The weather was good so we spent a lot of time in the large garden, and very much enjoyed the beautiful new terrace. Lots of space for cricket and football with the children, big and small! The owner was very helpful indeed and her local knowledge was particularly useful. As well as recommendations for local pubs / dining she recommended a superb caterer who came and provided a special lunch. I had rather a lot of emails with her in the couple of months prior to our stay with various requests, all of which she was quite happy to accommodate. This is a beautiful home with everything you will need and more. Thanks, Emily, for helping us to have a very special weekend.

Holly Tree Haven!
This is a very well appointed house with comfortable beds and spacious rooms. Very good for a large party. We were 6 adults and 5 children (one a very small baby). It was very clean and welcoming when we arrived. We managed to meet Emily and Justin and their lovely family some time before our stay and they could not have been more welcoming and easy to get on with. Very little seemed to be "out of bounds", including the children's toys, books and games, which we all enjoyed. The terrace outside the kitchen was not quite finished, but they had put a lovely big table on it so as we could all have lunch outside. The pub which is accessed through a gate at the end of the garden offers good food and has plenty of space for high chairs and prams! The only downside was the heat of the Aga during the day, which was low and it took an age to boil the kettle! But apart from that, we would highly recommend this property for any age!

About the host

Hosted by Emily

Host profile image
We are a family of four, who love to share our house with people looking for a special get away, whether it be a weekend, a holiday or celebrating a special occasion such as a family wedding. We take great pride in our home and hope that you will enjoy your time here as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We love our house and village so much. It is such a peaceful, pretty area with gorgeous rambling country walks and complete serenity. Yet we have the very popular market towns of Stockbridge, Marlborough and Winchester on our doorstep. All have fantastic shops, pubs and restaurants which we visit regularly. Added to that, a wonderful pub located via a secret gate at the top of our garden. It doesn't get much better than that!

What makes this property unique

Here are some of the wonderful testimonials from guests who have stayed at Holly Tree House:

"The pictures show a beautiful home but in reality the house exceeded all of our expectations. The house is set in a stunning location and Emily made us feel so welcome. The house is so spacious yet cosy."

"This beautiful house is very clean and tidy, and is decorated to a very high standard, but it still feels very homely. Its spacious and light...and we loved it! We particularly enjoyed "chilling" in the large kitchen, playing in the large garden, and relaxing in the sitting room, in font of the wood-burner. It's also a really child-friendly house, with lots of resident toys."

"We were looking for the perfect place for a girlie get together and fell upon this beautiful house in an idyllic village. We weren't disappointed. Spacious and beautifully decorated, this was a wonderful place to spend a leisurely weekend".

"The house is well decorated, big (yet cosy) with comfy beds, brand new bathrooms, a large dinning table and an incredible kitchen. The garden is huge, there are fantastic walks from the doorstep and a pub at the end of the garden. It really was perfect.....Please don't hesitate to book!!!"

"The living space is open plan but still very cosy - perfect for cooking and spending time in."
