Show more "Opposite the 13th-Century church of All Saints, Carysfort Close has wonderful views over parkland belonging to the Elton Estate. The setting is wholly rural, with all 17 properties built in local limestone around two courtyards next to a former ironworks, now housing some of the earliest agricultural machinery. There are also allotments available on the estate for keen gardeners.It is an easy walk to Elton village centre, with a post office, general store and an excellent fish restaurant. There are also two public houses and a garden centre. A large part of the village is owned by the Elton Estate which has 3,800 acres of unspoiled parkland, of which the Jacobean-era Elton Hall and its magnificent gardens are the centrepiece.
For a greater choice of shops, Oundle is only a 10-minute drive, and of course the busy medieval town of Peterborough offers a number of shops, museums and historic buildings in addition to its beautiful Norman cathedral. The surrounding countryside can be easily enjoyed either on foot or by car, or from the vantage point of a steam train along the heritage line that runs from Nene Valley Station along to the Northamptonshire border."
