Review:
|
|
Although the Tudor Lodge is Grade II listed, it has been restored so beautifully that it makes for a very comfortable 21st-century stay. The interior is full of so much attention to detail you don’t know where to look, from the hand-forged window clasps to the clothes’ rails in the bedrooms. And the outside space is a bonus - a beautiful lawned area with a lovely flowering border, along with a herb garden. And very close proximity to the village pub!

|
Specifically Recommend:
|
Just staying there!
|
|
Be Aware:
|
Very steep stairs to the second bedroom, although not a problem for us, and sound travels - again, not a problem for us, but it could make or break friendships!
|
|
Could Provide:
|
Nothing! Except maybe more information locally, best places to get groceries, local pubs, delis etc
