A cosy, converted coach house for two, with a key to Peckover’s garden.
Peckover Stable Lodge is part of an 18th-century coach house, tucked away next to Peckover House.
On the ground floor, the door opens into a spacious kitchen and dining area which leads to the shower room and utility room. The kitchen overlooks an inner courtyard which has a south-facing seating area and is also used for guest parking. It is shared with neighbouring holiday cottages Coach House Loft and Wainman House. A central staircase leads to the open-plan first floor with a small sitting room area on one side and bedroom area on the other, both featuring exposed low beams at each side. The areas are partially screened by mid-height walls which encase the stairs.
You’ll have free entry to Peckover House when it's open, an elegant Georgian town house with stories to tell. You'll have a key to the door that leads from the courtyard into Peckover’s garden. It has remained mainly unchanged since its Victorian heyday, with a rose garden, orangery, orchard lawn and borders full of herbaceous plants. You can continue to explore the grounds when the other visitors have left for the day.
The coach house is in the heart of Wisbech, 5 minutes from the harbour and 30 minutes from the coast. The Wash National Nature Reserve is 16 miles away. A short distance further, the coastline changes from dramatic saltmarshes to miles of sandy beaches, pinewoods and dunes, stretching from Hunstanton to Brancaster and beyond Holkham to Wells-next-the-Sea.
Entrance door just under 1.7 m in height. Sloping ceilings and beams on first floor. See an independent accessibility review and our accessibility guide below. Accessibility questions? Email holiday.enquiries@nationaltrust.org.uk or call us on 0344 800 2070.

The entrance is directly into the spacious kitchen/diner with hard surface floor and over looks the inner courtyard. The shower room and utility are off the kitchen at the rear. Stairs lead from kitchen to first floor.
A central staircase leads to an open plan room with the small sitting room area to one side and the bedroom on the other – the bedroom overlooks the inner courtyard. The rooms are partially screened by a mid-height wall encasing the stairs. There are low beams to the sides of both rooms.
Please note: The entrance door is just under 1.7 m in height. On the first floor, there are sloping ceilings and beams which reduce head height in places.
Heating: The cottage is heated by electric panel heating.
Parking: One allocated car parking space is available outside the cottage, within the secure inner courtyard.
Garden: Outdoor seating is provided within the courtyard but when all 3 cottages are occupied the courtyard will predominantly be used for parking spaces.
However, a key is provided to the door in the garden wall between the courtyard and Peckover’s 4 acre garden which you are welcome to use at all times.
Wifi: We are pleased to provide free WiFi at this cottage which is supported by BT. Please note that intermittent connection problems can sometimes occur so it should not be relied upon.
Offers: Guests will benefit from a late Sunday checkout of 4pm.
Please note: As Peckover Stable Lodge is located in a town centre environment, visitors will notice passing traffic and other associated noises at times. Entrance and exit to the car park area is directly on to a busy main road, care should be taken on entering and leaving.
Peckover Stable Lodge is available to rent both individually and as part of a larger property when combined with Wainman House and Coach House Loft.
