The Dairy sits on the Burghley Estate in the heart of Capability Brown parkland, landscaped during the 1760s. After careful restoration, this historic building has been transformed into beautiful holiday accommodation with all the luxurious comforts of modern life provided within a timeless and Arcadian setting.
The Dairy is comprised of two wings named Cecil Cottage and Exeter Cottage, making it ideal for a group of friends, family reunions and all manner of celebrations including wedding parties. Wherever possible, original features from the dairy have been kept and reused along with the introduction of some antique paintings, prints and furniture from the collections at Burghley House. Award-winning interior designer, Thomas Hamel, has created spectacular dining and living spaces enjoying open fires and wonderful views. Every room has the advantage of an en-suite bathroom with deep bath tubs and walk-in showers. There is space for your dogs and an enclosed garden.
The Dairy is within walking distance of Burghley House which offers a full calendar of events and facilities. These include concerts, country fairs and food markets, car rallies, the Burghley Film festival and the world class Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials. The Orangery Restaurant, is open most days from mid-January to Christmas and while the park around the House is accessible all year during daylight hours, the House and Gardens can be enjoyed from mid-March until November. Guests at the Dairy will have privileged access through the park and be able to walk down the 18th Century drive known as ‘Capability’s Cutting’ to the beautiful Lion Bridge and across the lake, one of Brown’s most iconic landscape features.

I booked the Dairy at Burghley for my wife's surprise 60th Birthday celebrations and it was above and beyond our expectations ! The photograph's of the property do not do it justice. The interior has been finished to such a high level and easily coped with our party of 16 + 1 . Access to the Burghley Estate via the private entrance at the Lion Bridge was appreciated by all and the beautiful town of Stamford is only a 1 mile walk through the park. A fantastic weekend we will all remember for a long time !!! A special thank you to Ellen for answering all my questions and allowing me to arrive in a hired Campervan just to throw my lovely wife off the scent.
