Upside Lodge

This beautiful period property dates back to the Strode-Barrington family who lived here in the 16th century. It has been recently renovated to offer a lounge with wood burner, two upstairs bedrooms, two bathrooms and modern amenities in comfortable historic surroundings.

About this space

The lounge offers a beautiful stone fireplace with wood burner, enjoyed from the comfort of the sofa. The dining area has a table seating up to 6. The kitchen has a granite worktop hosting a dishwasher, double electric oven and hob, as well as a fridge freezer.

There are two bedrooms upstairs. The first has a king sized bed and a single, with a view of the garden. The second has a four poster bed, another single bed and its own en suite in Calacatta tumbled marble with new fittings. The main bathroom has been recently updated with Manhattan polished marble and a Jerusalem bone limestone floor, alongside brass fittings and a heated towel rail.

There is a patio area with a dining table, chairs, gas barbecue and ambient lighting, and a small area of grassed garden with views over the surrounding countryside. The property is for your exclusive and private use during your stay. There is an attached property with shared parking, so we ask that guests park considerately.
