Luxury Self-Catered Holiday Cottages in Ivinghoe
Ivinghoe Lettings is a family-run holiday accommodation business located on Ford End Farm, a working farm with over 110 acres of cereals and a herd of 100 beef cattle. Established in 2008, we have transformed six redundant farm buildings into self-catered holiday cottages, with a seventh unit nearing completion. Our properties, including the historic Watermill Cottage, offer comfortable stays surrounded by the natural beauty of the Chiltern Hills. Situated near Ivinghoe, a hamlet mentioned in the Domesday Book, our farm has been managed by the Jellis family since the 1890s. We pride ourselves on preserving the heritage of our farm while providing modern amenities for guests.Our cottages, ranging from two to three bedrooms, accommodate up to six people and are equipped with essential appliances. Located near the Ashridge Estate and ancient Ridgeway Path, we offer easy access to London, Birmingham, and local attractions. Our team is dedicated to ensuring guests enjoy a memorable countryside experience. We welcome families and pets, with flexible booking options available year-round. With over a decade of experience, we combine local knowledge with a commitment to quality service.
