The Lodge

  The Detail...

Relax in the country at the Lodge, a grown-ups only woodland getaway in the sleepy Somerset village of Norton St Philip.

This charming and cosy property was newly built in 2017 and as such is equipped with all the modern facilities required. The front of the cabin is made almost entirely of glass and therefore offers beautiful views onto the balcony and surrounding gardens, which are lit up by fairy lights and lanterns by night.

Inside the custom-built suspended bed offers a unique night's sleep, while the luxury ensuite bathroom and kitchen with oven, hob, microwave, fridge and dishwasher means guests have everything they need for their stay.

A cinema-style TV is perfect for curling up in front of a film for a cosy night in, while the balcony seating area is great for those sunny afternoons.

Located near the current Old Mill Treehouse, this can either be used alongside it for a larger group, or as a private retreat for two with shrubs and blinds separating the properties.

As the Lodge is self-catering it is worth noting that there are two farm shops and a small supermarket just a short 10-minute walk away. Alternatively, guests could eat out at the George Inn - a 700-year-old public house that is mentioned in the Domesday Book, complete with an open fire and real ales. Next door is the Fleur-de-Lys pub, which serves woodfried pizzas, among other things.

The historic spa city of Bath is just six miles away, with its vast array of bars, restaurants and shops; as well as the Roman Baths, Abbey and Royal Crescent. Glastonbury, Bristol, Frome and Wells are also a short drive away.

Other nearby attractions include Somerset Lavender Farm, Farleigh Hungerford Castle, Westonbirt Arboretum, Longleat Safari Park, Stonehenge and Cheddar Gorge, to ensure guests of all ages are kept entertained.

Also, why not head out into the great outdoors and enjoy all the hiking, walking and pony trekking on offer. There are several trails that start in Norton St Philip, while a pony trekking school can be found in the neighbouring village of Wellow.
