Stunning and thoughtfully designed, 'Coppelade' is an individually built home offering a wealth of character. Having purchased the land in 1978 in an auction at Station Hotel in Holbeach, the current vendor set out to create an impressive and charming property, with the build completed 4 years later in 1982; Coppelade compliments the traditional style of a Lincolnshire cottage and is set in the charming semi-rural location of Whaplode. A particular feature of the property is the sun dial fitted into the south facing gabled wall above the Conservatory.

The name Whaplode is from the Old English Cwappa+lad, or 'Watercourse where eelpouts are found'. According to historical records in 810 the name appears as Cappelad and then in the 1086 Doomsday Book the village is detailed as Copelade, then subsequently becoming Quappelode around 1307 and finally Whaplode as it is now known.
