SITUATION
Middle Cottage is an idyllic two bedroom period cottage, dating to 1905, situated in the picturesque and highly sought after conservation village of Horninghold, wonderfully located in between the Rutland market town of Uppingham and Leicestershire's medieval market town of Market Harborough. The village dates back approximately 1000 years and at the beginning of the 20th Century the then estate owners, the Hardcastle family, remodeled the village as a 'Garden Village' with the erection of a variety of stone, brick and half-timbered houses all set in a neat symmetrical pattern, surrounded with ornamental planting and a variety of trees. The neighbouring village of Hallaton provides excellent local amenities including a well-regarded primary school, two public houses, tea rooms and village hall. Both Uppingham and Market Harborough offer further amenities with an extensive range of shops, boutiques, leisure facilities, bars and restaurants. In addition, both Oakham and the Georgian market town of Stamford are accessible, with the latter being renowned for its Georgian architecture. There is a wide selection of excellent schooling in the area, with well-regarded primary schools in nearby Hallaton and Great Easton. Secondary schools are nearby at Uppingham and Market Harborough, whilst private schooling is available at Uppingham, Oakham, Stamford and Oundle.Communication links are excellent with mainline train services available from Market Harborough train station to London St Pancras in approximately one hour, as well as the nearby A47 providing quick access to the larger towns of Leicester and Peterborough.
