The Victorian Lodge (1876) is a charming and quintessentially English country cottage on a private estate once owned by King Henry 8th. It sits at the entrance of a long driveway leading to the Little Dower House (www.littledowerhouse.com) the enchanting home where Susie and Hamish the owners of the Lodge live.
I hope you will read the amazing reviews our lovely guests have written about their stays here in our Cottage :)
