A very comfortable base camp that is equipped with every thing you need, plus many extra touches that made my stay very enjoyable. Quiet, very clean and modern. I would recommend a 4x4 to navigate the approach lane though.
Another lovely stay at Owl Lodge. A week of relaxation and recharging. Dogs loved it too. The Lodge is clean, comfortable and well appointed and Hayley, the host, looked after us very well.
We’re already looking forward to a return
A lovely secluded and peaceful cottage set in woodland and countryside. Birds, wildlife and trees, plus a very good pub nearby and access to Hampshire and Wiltshire. We had a wonderful long weekend and didn't want to leave
Stayed at Owls Lodge a few times now and each time just gets better. It is truely a place to relax and unwind in a unique and beautiful location. The hosts are lovely people and give great respect to privacy throughout your stay but also easily available if needed. The accommodation is clean and comfortable and opens onto a roofed balcony and a garden that is private and very peaceful. The Owls really do lodge here too!
We had a fab time at the lodge. It was clean, comfy and well-equipped. It was also more spacious than we were expecting for a one bed! Lovely surrounding countryside. Would definitely recommend!
Great place, very peaceful setting, great host. Just access hill road a bit bumpy but we where aware, high clearance car will be recommended to access cottage.
We had a lovely, peaceful stay at Owl Lodge, situated amongst the oak trees with a view of the fields beyond. The lodge was homely and clean with everything you could need for a short or long stay. Rural walks are available directly from the lodge which was great for our whippet boys, and although we were not staying to visit the local area, Salisbury, Stockbridge and Marlborough are all within reach…..as is the New Forest if you don’t mind an hours drive. A good and reasonably priced breakfast or lunch can be found at the Time and Tides deli/cafe on the main road, easy to get to and plenty of parking. Thanks again Hailey for a lovely stay!
The Lodge was immaculately clean. It is very peaceful and quiet place. All communication was easy and friendly.
However, great care needs to be taken when driving along the track leading to the property; it is exceedingly rough.
My partner and I had a wonderful couple of days at owls Lodge. Lodge is fully equipped, clean and comfortable. Hayley let us know she was around for any issues but gave us our Privacy. The surrounding areas are great for walks and a drive to durdle door is well worth it. Certainly recommend and would love to visit again.
We booked Owls Lodge after reading all the great reviews and to be honest nothing has changed. The Lodge has everything you'll need for a great stay and it's only a short drive to some beautiful villages. We will definitely return in the summer.
This was our forth visit to Owls Lodge. We return every year simply because we enjoy being there and it never fails to disappoint us. It’s always pleasant to arrive and feel the peace and quiet and marvel at the lovely views from the veranda . The morning sunrise can be spectacular .The lodge is always exceptionally clean and welcoming. Comfortable bed and cosy settee for two, a great shower too. The kitchen is well equipped and easy to work with. The surrounding countryside offers plenty of lovely and interesting walks, short or long. The beautiful Bently Wood is just on the doorstep and a must if you do like walking. Haley is a lovely friendly lady and most accommodating, always ready to help and makes you feel most welcome but at the same time gives good respect to your privacy during your stay. Owls Lodge is truly a secret hideaway tucked in the woods and a great escape from busy life, a place where relaxation comes easy, we love it.
Had a lovely weekend stay at Owls Lodge. The Lodge is in a really peaceful setting with fantastic views across the fields. There are walks directly from the property, along the Clarendon Way and through Bentley Woods. The property was really comfortable and had everything we needed. Hope to return.
Very cosy and lovely lodge, with a beautiful view.
It was very clean and all prepared for our stay. Hayley from the start was very helpful and accommodating. I would high recommend the Owls lodge.
Hayley was helpful right from the start and also whilst we were there. Such a lovely lady.
Cottage was exactly as described and the views from the back where a gem to wake up to each morning. The horses in the field peeking over the fence was a delight.
Perfect for exploring close by and further a field like Lulworth Cove which was well worth the drive down. Cottage was clean with everything you could need including a cheese grater ( we have a thing for looking for one straight away) 😀
Some lovely walks straight from the cottage and the walk to Lord Nelsons pub for dinner was lovely as well. Food was fantastic here. Stourhead house worth visiting and also close by seeing deer in Bentley woods. Cycled in New Forest and just walked and walked!!!
Would def come again and would recommend highly.
Having navigated a very stony and bumpy track (you really need a 4x4!) we found a delightfully clean and tastefully furnished lodge with a stunning view over a paddock and bluebell woods. Once there, we never wanted to leave. A perfect retreat for those who want some peace and quiet.
Immaculate, very comfortable and well equipped accommodation in a beautiful setting. An ideal centre for exploring Wiltshire with many good walks right on the doorstep.
Had a great experience here for the week for work. Host was really helpful and the cabin is stunning and in such a peaceful area. Definitely going to be coming back with my partner at a later date!
Owls Lodge was great! Very clean and providing of everything you need, including acres of space. The views through the trees and across open fields were pretty special.
I have recently gone through cancer treatment and have been given the all clear..
I now needed a short break away from the busy life.
Owls lodge is the ideal location to have total peace with no pressures.
Within the first day of my stay I felt relaxed and very rarely looked at the clock.
Hayley introduced herself and her knowledge of the local are was outstanding.
I enjoyed venturing out to some places of interest so a car is a definite .
I was unable to get out walking due to the English weather , only to be expected in late October. Thoroughly recommend for single and couples.
