With excellent local knowledge and close relationships with property owners, we are able to guide you through your decision making and answer questions that only true local natives can. We are available pretty much all hours to look after you as we are committed to ensuring all guests have the best possible stay feeling fully revived and recharged.

Property info

A dedicated labour of love rejuvenated this 1930s Art Deco utility building in a sublime and secluded rural setting. It is the ultimate Constable Country retreat nestled in a private wild water meadow next to the River Box that runs through the Dedham Vale. Originally built in 1938 as the village pumping station, it was fully restored and extended in 2005 to create an ethereal space with unrivalled connection to its stunning natural landscape thanks to extensive use of glass. With wonderful walks, two fantastic pubs and uninterrupted south facing views over the Box Valley, The Pump House is an extraordinary sanctuary of bucolic peace and beauty.
