Cottage of the Week – The White House
The world’s been on edge waiting to see who would become President of the United States this week, so we thought we’d choose this large palatial property to show poor Mr Romney that it is possible to stay in a White House without breaking the bank. Unfortunately, properties of this size are well-suited to parties, so it’s entirely possible he may forego holidaying in any kind of White House.
That would be a great shame because the White House is a truly opulent property with striking Georgian architecture and a fantastic array of exterior activities and interior comfort. Inside the property you will find a splendid drawing room with period fireplace, antique furniture, comfortable sofas, beautiful bay windows and French doors overlooking the landscaped garden. The indoor pool room has a full size heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi, poolside seating and sun loungers, shower room and changing area. The pool house opens up through a series of sliding doors to give direct access to the gardens and terraces.
The surrounding gardens boast an equally impressive feast for the eyes. Set in magnificent 6-acre grounds in the heart of the beautiful Essex countryside, the White House Estate has its own flood-lit tennis court. If you fancy more outdoor sports in the countryside there is a golf course just 5 miles away in Ongar with further golf courses in Epping and Stapleford Abbotts, all within 10 miles. At the rear of the house you will also find sunny terraces with tables and seating and ample secure parking. The property itself is fully enclosed and has an electronic gated entrance.
A stay at The White House doesn’t necessarily mean you are confined to the countryside – however appealing that may be. London is only 30 miles away from the property, so it’s perfect for those seeking the best of both worlds: the bustling capital in the day followed by the tranquil ambience of the countryside at night. Or vice versa; like most of the best holiday properties The White House gives you all the options you need to enjoy a fantastic break – how you enjoy them is entirely up to you.
The White House sleeps up to 14 holidaymakers, which makes it around £30 per person per night with a full occupancy – far cheaper than many hotels. And how many of them offer you a private pool with acres of surrounding land to explore and enjoy? Dare we say it; The White House estate is a veritably presidential property!
