Churchill Cottage

About

Open the front door and know immediately that you have entered somewhere special.

Enter the cottage through its fenced front garden into a hallway. The living room lies to the left, where warm Indian Yellow walls and comfy furnishings create a welcoming space to unwind, elevated by prints gifted to the Auckland Palace by the late artist Sarah Churchill (Winston Churchill’s daughter), after whom the cottage is named. The kitchen and dining area are situated at the opposite side of the cottage, where cornflower blue walls are complemented by blue and white ceramics in a Welsh dresser. The contemporary kitchen is joined by a large farmhouse table, perfect for gathering for a slow brunch before a day spent exploring. A patio with garden seating is situated to the rear of the cottage, so you can take your coffee outside and enjoy the sun on warmer days.

Upstairs, you will discover four sumptuous bedrooms, with original fireplaces, spectacular views and en-suite facilities. Perhaps best of all is the Palace’s impressive grounds, museums, galleries and restaurants on your doorstep, as well as their exciting calendar of events and activities, it’s the perfect spot for a varied retreat with friends or family.
