COTTAGES
Our two cottages, Wiggles and Piglet, are warm and elegant barn conversions with vaulted ceilings, king size beds dressed in luxurious linens, fully equipped kitchens and bi fold doors that open onto your own private garden. Step outside, sink into your outdoor copper bath beneath the pagoda canopy, and watch the sun set over the Essex countryside. These are holiday cottages in Essex with every modern comfort and all the charm of the countryside.
cabins
For those who want to go a little wilder, Little Long Cabin and Sleepy Hollow Cabin sit tucked deeper into the farm amongst the trees. Each features underfloor heating, a wood burner, an outdoor copper bath with jacuzzi jets, a movie projector, record player and binoculars for watching the deer and red kites that roam freely across the estate. If you’ve been searching for hot tub lodges in Essex or a luxury cabin near London, look no further.
A FARM STAY IN THE ESSEX COUNTRYSIDE
Pepples Farm is more than just a place to stay. It’s a working landscape in quiet transformation. Ancient woodlands are being reconnected, wildflower meadows sown, and natural ponds restored to create a private nature reserve. Pull on your boots, explore the footpaths, and soak up the undisturbed views across acres of open countryside. What will you spot amongst the trees, crops and skies?
MEET ME IN WIMBISH
Pepples Farm is an enchanting retreat set in the peaceful village of Wimbish, just moments from the historic market town of Saffron Walden. Perched on the Essex and Cambridgeshire border, this serene escape blends rustic charm with modern sophistication, offering four unique stays for couples seeking relaxation, nature, and a genuine touch of luxury. Our two barn conversion cottages, Wiggles and Piglet, are warm and elegant spaces with vaulted ceilings, wood burners, king-size beds dressed in luxurious linens, and fully equipped kitchens with everything you need for a long, indulgent stay. Step through the bi-fold doors into your own private garden and you'll find our signature centrepiece: a stunning copper bath beneath a pagoda, where you can soak under the stars before wrapping up in a soft robe and settling beside the fire pit. For those who want to go a little wilder, our two cabins, Little Long Cabin and Sleepy Hollow, sit tucked deeper into the farm amongst the trees. Each shares the same copper outdoor bath with jacuzzi air jets, wood burner and underfloor heating, but adds its own sense of seclusion, along with a movie projector, record player and binoculars for watching the deer and red kites that roam freely across the estate. The farm itself is a landscape in quiet transformation. With records dating from 1560, Pepples Farm is actively being rewilded, ancient woodlands reconnected, wildflower meadows sown, and natural ponds restored, creating a private nature reserve that guests are warmly invited to explore. Saffron Walden is just five miles away, Cambridge fifteen minutes, and London under an hour. Whether you're looking for romance, rest, or simply a few days to reconnect with the natural world, Pepples Farm promises an experience you won't forget.
