Testimonials
The Garden House was home to our students from 2015 to 2022 prior to our relocation and was an ideal home for us. The facilities, food and accommodation were excellent. The staff were very accommodating and extremely professional and the housekeeping staff provided for all we needed.
We also used the house for our summer camps accommodating students aged 13+ and we would have no hesitation in recommending the Garden House.

I bought over a group of Nigerian students to the Garden House.
The students really enjoyed the programme and will be looking forward to future visits. The facilities at Stamford are of good standard that can easily motivate and enhance good performance.
Thank you to all the staff.

Location Information
A bustling prosperous market town with quaint streets and delicious food.
Stamford has a unique blend of history, niche shopping and stunning Georgian architecture – and won the supreme compliment from the Sunday Times newspaper as ‘Britain’s top place to live’ in 2013. Proclaimed by Sir Walter Scott as “the finest stone town in England”, it was declared a conservation area in 1967 and has over 600 listed buildings of mellow limestone including five medieval churches.
There is a thriving high street with coffee shops, restaurants and a vast range of retailers to tempt you. Our main street market is on a Friday with a smaller Saturday market and once a fortnight there is a Farmers’ Market.
The popular Town Trail takes you through Stamford exploring quaint passageways, main thoroughfares and market squares. Guided walks are also available with official guides. So whether the tranquil river walks, fine Georgian buildings or the more modern attractions captivate you, Stamford has something to charm everyone.
The Burghley Estate is only a mile away, the centrepiece of which is Burghley House, one of the foremost Treasure Houses of the United Kingdom and hosts the Burghley Horse Trials.
Burghley Park Golf Club is five minutes away. Rutland Water is 11 miles and Sacrewell Farm and Country Centre 6 miles.
The Garden House is located just 5 minutes walk away from the bus and train station, and the A1 is just a two minute drive from the house.
