    After a rather stressful Friday involving our car breaking down on the way to reach the lodge..... we could not have wished for a warmer welcome from Brendan. We were extremely grateful that the hot tub was already up to temperature once we arrived (thanks to Brendan!). Our stay was a lovely oasis of peace and calmness. The short walk to the village was lovely, and the pub was a great place to eat. We will be back :)

  • "Absolutely beautiful setting, very friendly host."

    Quite pricey which is not an issue for the setting. I was shocked however we had to pay extra for wood to heat the hot tub. Paying premium rates you shouldn’t be asked to pay extra. I probably would look at alternatives next time for this reason.

    Hi Michael Thank you for the feedback. We provide a starter pack of wood to all our guests which is included in the cost of your stay. This is what was used to heat the hot tub ready for your arrival on site. We have a detailed section that explains this in the information pack that is emailed to you prior to your arrival, and we are always more than happy for guests to bring their own wood for the hot tub. Kind regards Brendan Property Owner

Resting on the grounds of an idyllic small holding within the quintessential English village of Chacombe, the lodges themselves sit either side of the Northamptonshire Oxfordshire county lines.

Boasting an inviting open-plan living space, this attractive wooden lodge is perfect for couples looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Spend cold winters nights snuggled up on the plush sofa as you enjoy a quiet night in front of the TV around your firepit, or embrace your stunning surroundings and views of the tranquil lake as you indulge in a dip in the hot tub.
