COMMUTING

Bygrave Manor is 1.3 miles from Baldock Station with direct trains to Cambridge and London. Trains to Kings Cross take 40mins and to Moorgate 50mins.

EQUESTRIAN FACILITIES

The grounds include a 3 acre paddock (see Google satalite view on 'Interesting Links' page of this website). In addition we are in the process of installing a double mobile field shelter. Further stabling and equestrian facilities (including a Menage) are available at the neighbouring farm (subject to availability).

OTHER USES:     We are open to ideas people have for the use of Bygrave Manor, possibilities include:

 Market Garden: In addition to the orchard, the clay based fertile soil on a south facing hill side makes Bygrave Manor perfect for cultivation. A bit of history: In the 1950s the place was almost totally self sufficient as rationed food was supplemented with veg, fruit and dairy produce from the grounds.

Private School / Conference Venue: With 16 rooms, beautiful location and great communications, Bygrave Manor could be the ideal place for many types of gatherings.

Smallholding: In addition to the Market Garden benefits (above), the paddock could be ideal for livestock.

RENT:    Monthly rates depend on length of tenancy and proposed usage. We are interested to get Bygrave Manor rented as soon as possible and would seriously consider all sensible proposals.
