Max and Chrissie Parker
Our property is the combination of a restored and converted piggery with a mix of quirky but homely touches and a brand new timber clad building where most of the bedrooms are. The natural swimming pond at the front of the house and Mediterranean patio to the rear completes the overall wow factor we have created here.
We strive to give every guest a relaxing time, whatever the reason for their stay. Comfortable beds, great food and drink and hosts that really enjoy meeting people .
Piglets is situated in a beautiful rural location but just 10 minutes from the historic market towns of Saffron Walden and Thaxted. There are a large number of country walks direct from the B&B. Cambridge is just over half an hour away as is Duxford Imperial War Museum. Audley End House is 15 mins and London can be reached from Audley End station in just under an hour.
