Owner's Description

Set in 3 acres of orchard land, Appleacre is a small, friendly residential/ tourist park situated at the southerly edge of Fowlmere village, offering homes for the retired and semi-retired.

FOWMERE VILLAGE
The village stores, pub and the Chequers restaurant are all within close walking distance and the stop alongside the Park provides regular bus services to Cambridge and neighbouring villages.

Park residents are welcome to join the Fowlmere Sports and Social Club, located just across the road where they can enjoy the sports facilities and relax in the comfort of the licensed bar.

A pleasant walk from Appleacre will take you past Manor Farm to the RSPB Nature Reserve. There the reed-beds and pools are fed by the natural chalk springs with a stream running through the Reserve. Birds include kingfishers, water rails and up to nine species of warbler.

LOCAL PLACES OF INTEREST
The famous university city of Cambridge, 9 miles to the north, offers excellent shops and numerous restaurants. For entertainment there are cinemas & theatres and for relaxation, beautiful walks can be enjoyed through parks, college grounds or alongside the River Cam.

The Imperial War Museum, situated in the neighbouring village of Duxford is a former Battle of Britain fighter station. Home to the largest collection of military and civil aircraft in Europe, the museum retains its wartime atmosphere as many of its aeroplanes still fly.

For members of the National Trust there are stately homes and Trust sites within a short drive of the Park such as Wimpole Hall, Anglesey Abbey and Audley End House.
