Location
Nene Valley Holiday Cottages are located between Northampton, Peterborough and Cambridge in north-east Northamptonshire, just four miles from Oundle. Our self-catering holiday cottages make a perfect base for exploring Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire and East Anglia.
The entrance to our holiday cottages is from the B662, which is the yellow road that runs from Clopton to the A605. If you look at the map, you may be tempted to approach from Wigsthorpe, but that track is unsuitable for cars and is normally blocked.

Local Directions
The postcode takes you to the village of Clopton, which is beyond the cottages, so please follow the instructions below.
From the A605, go over a small humpback bridge (½ mile) and up the hill. The road bends round to the right, past a wood and white house on the right (Woodside Kennels and Cattery). Slow down now! Before the next house on the right, look on the left side of the road for the telegraph pole (it has a red ribbon and yellow reflector band tied around it). Turn left immediately between the hedge and you will find the gate to the lane that leads to the cottages.
From Clopton, continue on the B662 for approximately 1 mile. Start to slow down by the first house on the left as the turning to the cottages is immediately after on the right. See above.
There is an ‘Enjoy England’ sign by the gate next to a green box. The gate has a ‘Nene Valley Cottages’ sign on it. This gate needs to be kept shut at all times, please. The cottages are a ½ mile down the lane, on the right.
Do not hesitate to telephone 07712 154009 if you are struggling to find the cottages.
