Short stay at Hinton Lodge

We stayed at Hinton Lodge whilst visiting family and it made the perfect base. Everything was comfortable, clean and as described. Due to a last minute family emergency Clea was incredibly accommodating to some late minute changes, which was very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend a stay if visiting the area.

Enjoyable stay at Hinton Lane

We were a family of 5 and had a great stay at the cottage. The hostess was very friendly and quick to respond to messages and accepted our request for early check in as we were flying in from the Middle East. The cottage was clean and kitchen fully equipped. The cottage is on a quiet lane and surrounded by the countryside. Lovely place to relax and explore.

Excellent property in an amazing location.

Had the best weekend celebrating my husband's 50th Birthday in this 100yr old property located in a beautiful country side where you wake up to horses n deers. The property caretaker is an amazing lady who arranged the cake n balloons upon request n I can't thank enough for this huge help as I wanted to surprise my husband as he entered the property. Immaculately clean n neat property located within short distances to super markets, Stonehenge n Roman baths.

Peaceful bliss

This was just what we needed as a busy family, somewhere that feels a million miles away from the fast pace of life. Yet still a short drive to everything you could possibly need or want to do. The host was so accommodating and available along with the house keeper, nothing was to much. I struggle with pain on the daily but the beds and sofas in this place were so comfortable it really helped us as a family to slow down. Thank you so much for a beautiful stay would definitely go back again and recommend to anybody.

Birthday to remember

We booked this cottage to celebrate my 50th birthday with a small group of friends and family. It was fantastic, the location is amazing, and the cottage is lovely. The outside space is great and it was magical when the white horse came over to say hello. The owners are great, very friendly, easy to contact and helpful.

We've had the loveliest time, and neither of us wanted to leave. The cottage was very Cute, and having a roaring fire every night was a treat. The horses and dog were an extra bonus! A delightful little place to recover and "reset".

Lovely accommodation and great location!

We all loved Hinton Lodge - a really sweet, unusual property, clean and well-kept and with wonderful views from the garden to enjoy. We thought the location was excellent for walks and visits to places such as Stonehenge, Bratton Camp and White Horse and Bath, and plenty of castles (we enjoyed Old Wardour(£) and Nunney Castle (free). We also seemed protected from the worst of the weather by the hills around the area - despite rain and a storm being forecast most days we enjoyed sunshine. Contact from the owners before we left gave us all the information we needed, and the housekeeper dropped by to check all was okay. I feel confident that had we had any further queries or problems they would have been dealt with quickly and helpfully. We had a really lovely stay, would definitely recommend to those seeking balance between peace and quiet and having things to do.

Very quiet. Pretty garden. Good place to stay during corvid-19. The kitchen was very well equipped. Low water pressure on the shower. Most of the window didn’t open and very hot during the day. A lot of insects.

About the host

Hosted by Clea Gompels

Host profile image
Hello, I'm Clea, your host at Hinton Lodge. We bought our property in 2000 and have hosted people from all over the world in our small little quaint cottage in Wiltshire for over 20 years. Hinton Lodge used to be the gate house to our own house, so we changed the entrance to ours to give complete privacy to the guests staying at Hinton Lodge with parking in front. It has been such a joy to meet so many people coming from different parts of the country and the world over the years. People tend to come back time and again at Hinton Lodge as it is so cosy and quiet, particularly if you come from a big city. All you can hear is the noise of the birds when you wake up. We love to travel ourselves and wanted to create a home from home where you have all you need for a peaceful stay in the beautiful English countryside. We hope you'll enjoy your time at Hinton Lodge if you choose to come and stay with us.

Why they chose this property

We bought Hinton Lodge more than 20 years ago here in Wiltshire because we love the English countryside and because Wiltshire is a beautiful county with so many delightful places to visit within easy reach. There are the villages of Lacock with its old Abbey, Castle Coombe, Devizes with its many canal locks, stunning cities such as Bath with its Roman Baths, famous Circle, the Jane Austen museum and countless delicious restaurants, Salisbury with its cathedral, the less well known but truly wonderful sacred site of the Avebury Stone Circle, as well as the better known and world heritage site of Stonehenge and so much more. Hinton Lodge is within minutes of gorgeous walks on Salisbury Plain if you have a dog or just love walking. Longleat Park and House are also nearby with so much to do for the whole family . We could go on and on and on about all the places you can get to from Hinton Lodge. You will certainly have plenty to do during your stay.

What makes this property unique

Hinton Lodge is a little gem of a place. It is small, but that's what makes it so special. It was designed to be very compact, yet practical for 4 guests. Although Hinton Lodge dates of the early 1900s, it has been lovingly restored and kept up to date, respecting the old charm whilst bringing it into the 21st century with all modern amenities. We hope you will fall in love with it as we have. You can relax on the porch and sip a nice glass of wine in the summer, or enjoy the open fire in the winter with a nice cup of tea. Whatever you do, whether you choose to be out and about all day making the most of what Wiltshire has to offer, or stay cosily in the cottage to relax and recharge, you will have a restorative time there. Hinton Lodge is perfect for families who love the fact that you can run around the house with the Jack and Jill bathroom, or come for a romantic stay with the beautiful 4 poster bed in the master bedroom, or even bring your furry friends as we now welcome well behaved dogs at Hinton Lodge.
