Haslingfield Manor is an exceptional and rare country house, quietly positioned within just over three acres of beautifully curated grounds, moments from Cambridge. Dating back to the mid16th century and originally built for Thomas Wendy, physician to Henry VIII, the manor is rich in historic significance, having notably hosted Queen Elizabeth I during her 1564 progress to Cambridge. Carefully shaped by later periods, including considered late 17th century additions, the house today presents a compelling blend of architectural heritage and contemporary craftsmanship. Approached via a historic bridge over the original moat, it offers a sense of calm, privacy and understated grandeur, enhanced by award-winning interiors and landscape design by an internationally acclaimed designer, a home that feels both deeply grounded in its past and confidently suited to modern life.

The village benefits from a strong sense of community and a range of local amenities including a primary school, post office and general store, delicatessen, café and an active recreation ground.

Secondary education is available at nearby Comberton, where the well respected village college is consistently recognised for its strong academic performance.

The University city of Cambridge provides an extensive choice of independent and state schooling, together with a wide range of shops, restaurants and cultural attractions. The city is also internationally renowned as a centre for science and technology, anchored by the University’s research facilities and the Cambridge Science Park.
